Closeboard Garden Gate – Solid Legs 45x95mm – Treated Green

The Closeboard Garden Gate with solid legs 45x95mm and treated green finish is an exceptional choice for anyone seeking a robust, durable, and visually appealing gate for their outdoor space. Manufactured with high-quality timber and crafted for strength and longevity, this gate offers a perfect blend of practicality and traditional style, making it a popular option for gardens, pathways, driveways, and side entrances.

Robust Construction and Solid Legs

One of the key features of this Closeboard Garden Gate is its solid frame legs measuring 45mm by 95mm. This substantial frame thickness gives the gate outstanding strength and stability. The solid legs act as the primary support structure, ensuring that the gate remains rigid and resistant to sagging over time. Whether exposed to strong winds, heavy rain, or frequent use, the thick and durable legs help maintain the gate’s integrity and performance.

The framework is meticulously jointed and screwed for extra reinforcement. Mortise and tenon joints, combined with heavy-duty fixings, ensure that the structure remains securely together even under demanding conditions. This robust build quality also minimises the risk of warping, twisting, or splitting – common issues with gates constructed from thinner or inferior materials.

Premium Quality Closeboard Cladding

The infill of the gate features closeboard cladding, which is a hallmark of traditional British fencing and gate design. Closeboard, also known as featheredge boarding, is made up of overlapping vertical boards that are tightly fitted together to create a solid and private barrier. Each board is precisely cut and overlapped to eliminate gaps, ensuring maximum privacy and excellent protection against the elements.

The design not only offers visual privacy but also acts as a windbreak, making it ideal for exposed or windy garden areas. The heavy-duty nature of closeboard cladding gives the gate additional structural strength, complementing the sturdy frame and solid legs.

Treated Green Finish

To enhance durability and protect against decay, the timber used for the Closeboard Garden Gate is treated to a green finish. Treatment involves infusing preservatives deep into the wood under high pressure, providing long-lasting protection against rot, fungal attacks, and insect infestations.

The green colour is a characteristic of the treatment process and gives the gate a natural, rustic appearance that blends seamlessly with garden surroundings. Over time, the green hue can soften into a more muted, silver-grey tone, although it can also be painted or stained to suit your garden’s style and colour scheme if desired.

This treatment significantly extends the gate’s life expectancy, making it a cost-effective and low-maintenance choice for homeowners and landscapers alike. Treated timber requires less ongoing maintenance compared to untreated wood, and with periodic care, such as occasional cleaning and retreatment, this gate can last for many years.

Traditional Appearance and Versatile Use

The Closeboard Garden Gate is designed with a timeless, classic aesthetic that complements a wide variety of fence styles and garden landscapes. Its clean, simple lines and natural wood finish provide a neutral backdrop that enhances plants, flowers, and garden features.

This gate is highly versatile and can be used in a variety of settings. It can serve as a pedestrian gate between different parts of a garden, a secure entrance to a side alley, or an access point to a backyard or driveway. The solid, imposing design also acts as a security feature, deterring unwanted access while maintaining an attractive appearance.

Easy to Customize and Install

Installing the Closeboard Garden Gate is straightforward, especially for professional landscapers and DIY enthusiasts with basic carpentry skills. The robust frame and legs provide excellent anchor points for hinges and fittings. For best results, use heavy-duty gate hinges, such as hook-and-band hinges, and a strong latch or locking mechanism to secure the gate effectively.

Additionally, the gate can be easily trimmed or adjusted on-site if minor alterations are needed to fit an existing opening. Its adaptable design means it can be installed as a standalone feature or paired with matching closeboard fencing for a coordinated look.

Eco-Friendly Choice

The timber used in the gate’s construction is sourced from sustainably managed forests, ensuring it meets environmental standards and supports responsible forestry practices. Choosing a wooden gate made from renewable resources is a great way to minimize your environmental impact while enhancing your property’s value and appeal.
