Metal Double Gates for rear access hard standing

Recommended Posts

Well this question is about 'storage'!

Does anyone know of a firm that can supply and fit metal double gates in NW London area

They are for a hard standing beside my garage suitable for an MV. All I seem to see online is ornate see-through versions but I want a 'solid' gate to stop people seeing everything. I have had wood double gates but with a gap of 3.25 metres each gate covering half of the gap is rather heavy .

The access to the hard standing is via a shared rear access road so I need a 2 metre high gate for privacy and security.

Thanks in advance

Larry

Last week I purchased  2 qty.  8" x8"  x 8ft. tanalized gate posts , checking the bill - they cost  £ 67.43 + VAT .  That is before digging the holes and mixing the concrete. Fortunately I get free delivery on orders over £50.  They are still wet , so hiding behind the Sankey park until half the weight, then son 1 & I can carry them to the rear.   Gates - the criteria is identical to yours  - undecided in detail - as yet.  I will probably weld up a pair of bi-parting RSA frames and clad with zinc coated sheet but then clad with timber so as not to fall-out with neighbour. The adj. impregnable hedging - I keep at 6ft.

Problems started when I upgraded the rear access from grass to 20mm crushed limestone last year , then I get the SatNav idiots making a main road turn too early , the greater threat is, I have observed four different Ford transits belonging metal collectors ,noted the Reg. off the security cameras , Swansea check = unidentified !!Insert other media
