Gates

That's a nice gate. (As was the first one, but in a different way!)

 

Can I ask what something like that would cost? (PM me if you prefer)

 

Thanks.

 

Can't remember of hand but some where in the region of £600 for the wood

Thanks. So plus building costs, varnish, bolts etc. and fitting costs?

About £2000 ish plus painting but not by me. They was priced by someone else to make in hardwood at £5000 which was too much for the client. The gate opening was about 8ft square

Cheers. Lovely gates, but a bit much for me - more than the car I'd drive between them!

This is my effort. Made from old fencing rails and 3x2. As you can tell I'm not a professional gate maker.

I really enjoyed making it and I hope it puts a smile on your faces.

I don't think I've set the bar too high so does anyone else have pictures of gates they have made?

I like that, good idea. If you dont mind i might copy that idea next year, when i make a couple of show gates.

My own gates, and a basement price gate and side panel.

I'm flattered. Copy away sir.

Your gates look good and solid.

Thanks for posting

Here's a pair of gates I made last week 2m wide opening 1.8 high, not very stylish but I think neat enough to match the rest of the fencing

Good honest gates. I would be very pleased with those.

Can I ask how you fixed the ledges please?
