After spending some time designing and building a set of folding gates that will let my car fit into onto my drive (just!) I need a set of wheels to support the weight at the far end. The gates are OK on their own, but a sprung loaded wheel would help ditribute the load.

I have tried, B&Q, Wickes, SainburysHB and Champion Timber. Any other ideas? I live in SW London.

Thanks

Alan

What about a jockey wheel - as used on trailers/caravans. They are sold separately by caravan sales showrooms and larger camping stores. Not sure if you could get a sprung loaded one though. DL
