Your garden, considered
A gate is only as good as its posts
Gates take more wear than any other part of a boundary. Most sagging, sticking gates are caused by weak posts or hinges that are too light. We set gate posts properly and use hardware sized for the gate.
We can match a gate to existing fencing or install it with a new fence, and add bolts and locks for side-access security.
On Forest Hill terraces, the front gate is part of the street scene, so we match its style and height to the wall or railings.

Our latest project in Forest Hill

Materials & possibilities
Gate options
Style, security and how it is hung all matter.
Stopping the sag
A gate that drags on the ground usually has a weak post or undersized hinges. We fit posts with deeper footings and choose hinges rated for the gate's weight, so it stays square.
