New Driveway Gates
So recently the wind has battered our driveway gates and sadly they are looking a little worse for wear and cracks are starting to appear, water has also got in to them over the year so they are soft in places. So I've done a quick search online for new gate suppliers and the choice is pretty vast.
Has anyone got and recommended suppliers or builders they could pass on, would much rather go with a recommendation than a unfamiliar company. The job would be based in Derbyshire and depending on the cost I may want automation fitting also. I should also mention I'd like the gates fitted also. I already have all the dimensions and design I after so just need a trusted supplier if possible. Thanks all:thumb: |

Should also mention I'm going with wood rather than steel.

I already have large brick pillars which the current gate posts are fixed to, they have been there for many years from talking to the previous owner with no issues. The gates themselves are not big at all, just wide enough for a sprinter to fit through. I see most gate suppliers also list the automated arms or underground motors for there gates so I would guess they would make sure the correct systems are sent out if ordering both gates and automation through them..
I wouldn't be replacing them if it wasn't for the fact that I can now push the wood in with little pressure from where water has eventually got in and started to rot around the hinge plates. |

I must of spent nearly a grand on galvanised frame and six foot solid larch gates, but it looks perfect and hasn't twisted at all after several years |
