The first thing to consider when placing an order with us for your gates is the width required. Generally wooden gates would be fitted in an existing opening, either between walls or wooden posts (either fixed to a wall or sunk into the ground). To manufacture the gates we require the overall opening width (between either the walls or posts if any are present). If your opening appears to be out of plumb then it is always recomended to measure the opening at floor level, middle and top just to be on the safe side and provide us with all three measurements, so we can manufacture the gates to suit less the clearances required (We would normally manufacture the gates to the narrowest measurement.). The other measurement we require is the height of the gates, an allowance of at least 2" (50mm) should be made for clearances under the gates, but more maybe required depending on your circumstances.

If you are in any doubt when measuring up for the gates do not hesitate to ring, fax or Email us, we are only too happy to advise.

Measuring up for your gatesMeasure the opening across the width top, middle and bottom.


As with our wooden gates the measurements we require in order to manufacture your garage doors is the overall width brickwork to brickwork (or if a frame is already in place the rebate to rebate size) at floor level, middle and top of opening and the floor to lintel height (or again if frame is in place floor to the rebate of the frame) in three places - left hand side, right hand side and centre.

If you are in any doubt when measuring up for the gates do not hesitate to ring, fax or Email us, we are only too happy to advise.
