Closeboard Garden Gate with Trellis Top – Solid Frame 45x95mm – Treated Green

Enhance the charm, privacy, and security of your garden with our beautifully crafted Closeboard Garden Gate with Trellis Top, constructed with solid 45x95mm frame timbers and treated green for maximum durability. Combining classic closeboard cladding with an elegant trellis feature, this gate is both functional and decorative — the perfect finishing touch to any outdoor space.

Strong Frame Construction – Solid 45x95mm Timber

At the heart of this gate is its reinforced frame, built from solid timber legs and a top rail, each measuring 45 x 95 mm. This heavy-duty frame provides superior strength and support, allowing the gate to resist warping, sagging, or movement over time. Whether installed at a side entrance, rear garden access, or pathway, this sturdy frame ensures the gate will stand firm for years to come, even with daily use.

The generous 45x95mm dimensions also provide a solid base for installing heavy-duty hinges and latches, giving you added confidence in the gate’s long-term performance. The strong framework also helps to maintain the structural integrity of both the closeboard and trellis sections, keeping the gate rigid and square under all weather conditions.

Closeboard Cladding – Privacy and Protection

The lower portion of the gate features traditional closeboard cladding, which consists of overlapping boards fixed vertically to horizontal rails. This construction technique has long been favoured in the UK for its robustness, security, and privacy.

Closeboard fencing offers full coverage, which is ideal if you’re looking to secure your garden from intruders, shield pets or children, or block views from neighbouring properties. The solid boarding also helps deflect wind and noise, making it suitable for exposed gardens or busy residential areas.

Each closeboard plank is carefully positioned to eliminate gaps, creating a tightly sealed surface that resists the elements. The boards are fixed securely to internal horizontal rails and further braced by the strong outer frame, ensuring a solid, long-lasting gate.

Decorative Trellis Top – Style with Function

What sets this gate apart is the integrated trellis top section, adding a touch of elegance and charm to the gate’s otherwise solid and functional build. The trellis consists of small, crisscrossing laths that form a lattice pattern, allowing light and air to pass through.

The trellis is not only decorative — it also serves practical purposes. It allows visibility and airflow at the top while maintaining privacy below. It’s perfect for training climbing plants like clematis, roses, or ivy, which can add greenery and seasonal colour to your garden entrance over time.

Whether left open or used as plant support, the trellis top creates a softer, more welcoming look that’s ideal for cottage gardens, landscaped paths, or anywhere you want a balance between security and style.

Pressure-Treated Green for Long-Term Protection

The entire gate — including the frame, closeboard panels, and trellis — is pressure-treated to a green finish, providing outstanding resistance to rot, fungal decay, and insect attack. This industrial treatment process forces preservatives deep into the timber’s grain, offering protection far beyond surface coatings or stains.

The green tint is a natural byproduct of the treatment and will fade to a silver-grey over time, blending beautifully with natural surroundings. Alternatively, you can paint or stain the gate to match your fence or garden style.

This treatment process extends the life expectancy of the gate significantly — often well over a decade — with minimal maintenance required. Just an occasional clean and inspection for hardware tightness will keep your gate in excellent condition for many years.

Versatile Applications and Easy Installation

This Closeboard Garden Gate with Trellis Top is suitable for a wide variety of uses, including:

• Side or rear access gates
• Garden entrances and pathways
• Matching with closeboard fencing
• Decorative features in landscaped gardens

The gate is easy to install, especially when paired with matching pressure-treated timber or concrete gate posts. The solid 45x95mm frame offers ideal fixing points for heavy-duty hinges, bolts, and latches, allowing for a secure and stable fit.

Due to its height — especially with the added trellis — this gate is also a great solution for areas requiring extra privacy without creating a completely blocked-off or heavy look. The trellis visually lightens the top line while maintaining a substantial barrier.
