Ordering Sizes

The width measurements in the drop-down menu reflect the total physical width of the two gates (when placed side by side). The height is determined by taking a measurement from the highest point of the arch to the bottom of the horizontal rail. The extra space required for the lock, hinges, and ground clearance must still be taken into account.

We therefore recommend that you use the chart below to determine the ideal spacing between your brick walls or support posts.

Do you Need to Buy Aluminium Posts?

You will need to order aluminium posts when fitting the gates into a location without any existing masonry walls. If you order these components, they can be buried into the ground or bolted onto any appropriate hard surface.
