• Physical Height: This dimension is from the top of the arch to the underside of the framework. You will need to allow additional height for ground clearance.

Example Ordering Size

If the gap between your masonry walls is 914mm, you must order the gate that will "fit an opening of 914mm".

Do You Need to Install Metal Posts?

If you fit the gate in an environment without sufficient support, you must install metal posts. If this applies to your installation, kindly be aware that these components will take up more room.

Example: A gate to fit an opening of 914mm combined with 2 x 50mm posts will need a total space of 1014mm.

Essential Information About the Abbey Low Bow Wrought Iron Style Metal Garden Gate

Fittings: You will receive a wall-mounted receiver plate, a pair of surface-mounted adjustable hinges, mounting brackets, and a latch mechanism. To attach these components to your chosen support structure, you will need the appropriate screws, which are not included.

Metal Posts: You must choose posts that are the appropriate size and height for the installation. If you're utilising in-ground posts, you'll need to dig holes big enough to accommodate them before making sure they're stable by adding concrete reinforcement.

Installation: To ensure safety, use the correct fixings to install the gate properly. You should always adhere to the installation instructions provided with the product when assembling. Before installation, ensure your structure has enough strength to guarantee the hinge and latch components are adequately secured.

Width: Before placing an order, thoroughly and precisely measure your opening. To be clear, we'll repeat it: the "fits opening" measurements refer to the distance you need between the existing brickwork or other support structures. It does not denote the physical width of the gate alone. If you need clarification, we ask that you refrain from ordering until you have read and understood our guide on choosing the correct size.

Painting: The material used for the Abbey metal garden gate is rust-resistant zinc-plated steel painted with a black powder-coat finish. It won't require any further painting before installation and will offer improved levels of protection against rust and corrosion.
