It’s important to choose a quality gate otherwise it likely won’t stand the test of time and will lead to you needing to fork out for repairs or even a new gate in the not too distant future.

When you’re a homeowner you always want to improve your home, tie up loose ends and make upgrades where necessary. One of the options you have to do that is with a wooden gate, which is able to add a touch of style whilst improving the security of your home. If you have a pathway around your house that leads to your garden, you don’t want to leave it open for simply anyone to wander through. With a wooden garden gate, you can create a barrier that gives you some extra privacy and comfort when you’re around your home. There are plenty of options such as metal garden gates, which may seem a viable option at first, but they can rust easily over time and also don’t have the same homely feel as a well-finished wooden gate. Our team of experts pride themselves on creating gates with a beautiful design that can add a touch of class to your home.

Another popular use for wooden gates for the modern home is as driveway gates. Having an open driveway that you can access directly from the street poses its own security risks, especially when your car is on view to anybody passing. With a wooden driveway gate, you can improve the security of your driveway and keep your car protected, especially at night. By closing off your driveway, you’re making access more difficult for strangers and lowering the possibility of any opportunists wandering onto your property. Not only does it improve the security of your home, but it also adds a classy touch to your property and provides you some extra privacy at the front of your house. Whether your driveway is narrow or stretches across the front of your property, don’t worry about not being able to find a size of gate that fits. We’re experts at crafting gates on made to measure specifications, so we’re able to supply you with a gate that will cover the width of your driveway and still provide enough space for you to access it in your car.

Wooden gates are great for preventing strangers from entering, but they’re also great for stopping things from getting out too! If you’re a dog owner or have other pets that like to explore your garden space, such as rabbits, having a garden gate is essential to making sure they’re not able to escape. Using a gate to prevent an easy exit for your pets also gives you peace of mind that they’re safe when you let them into the garden to play. As we offer both full size, taller wooden gates and smaller wooden gates, it’s worth being mindful of which you opt for, especially if your pets have a habit of jumping. Often, pet owners look to upgrade their current garden gates in favour of taller gates to ensure their pets can’t simply jump out or any other animals can’t get in.

As an alternative to a fixed wall or fence, wooden gates are a great option as they allow easy passage. Wooden gates, specifically wooden garden gates, allow you to easily access different areas of your property without having to completely block off an entrance/exit. This makes hardwood garden gates a great choice if you’re looking to upgrade your garden setup as they look far nicer than other alternatives and still provide all of the security benefits you would expect. We offer a range of gates here at Village Products, including made to measure designs that cater to your specific requirements.

When choosing a hardwood gate, there are plenty of options when it comes to selecting which type of timber you’d like your gate to be made from. This gives you much greater control when it comes to the design and look of your gate. When compared with metal gates or other alternatives, the designs can be pretty basic and won’t do much in the way of enhancing the aesthetic of your home. With a choice of Idigbo Hardwood and Iroko Hardwood, you can choose a timber which you think most suits the style of your house. These timbers are also perfect for this type of application as they are robust and sturdy, ready to withstand strong weather conditions and any wear and tear which may occur over time.

Idigbo

Idigbo

Idigbo is a West African timber often used in joinery because of its looks and durability. It has a pale, natural and light colouring to it, making it a common alternative to oak. This straw coloured hardwood is harvested in Ghana and the Ivory Coast and put to use by our fine woodworkers here at Village Products.

One of the reasons we love Idigbo so much is its strength – this strong timber is durable and hard-wearing, with a natural resistance to moisture. It can take a fair amount of punishment, while still being incredibly lightweight compared to oak and other hardwoods. For those who do love the oak aesthetic, Idigbo is a perfect choice – when treated, it looks almost identical to the classic wood.

It stains incredibly well, and so can be stained to a number of different shades. It’s a versatile wood that makes it an excellent choice material for gates. In fact, most of our hardwood gates are made from Idigbo hardwood. Its popularity has only increased over time, and we couldn’t recommend it enough. Idigbo is fantastic West African hardwood that combines strength and durability with looks and versatility.

Iroko

Iroko

Often known as ‘African Teak’, Iroko is a West African timber that has characteristics that make it perfect for use in the British climate. In fact, it shares many of the same great characteristics of oak and teak which make it a popular alternative to those woods. It’s known for its durability – in fact, Iroko is so strong and durable that it is often used in the boat building industry. It’s naturally resistant to decay over time and the ravages of insects – meaning that it lasts longer than other woods with little maintenance needed.

Iroko varies in colour, from a light brown and golden orange look to a dark nut brown variation. It is known for its slightly irregular shading, which gives it an entirely unique look. Iroko contains natural oils and, if left untreated, will weather to a silver-grey colour in around 12 months. It’s a beautiful and durable hardwood that is a perfect material for gates, as long as you don’t mind maintaining the wood. To keep its stained look, we recommend regular maintenance to keep Iroko at its best. Tung Nut Oil, garden furniture oil or Danish Oil will preserve its excellent colour, and we also stock Teknos – our favourite wood treatment option.

The Importance Of Treating Your Hardwood Gate

The Importance Of Treating Your Hardwood Gate

Look after hardwood gates and the hardwood gates will look after you. Once installed, it’s important to treat your gates with one of our pots of wood treatment, this will ensure your gates last as long as possible. With ever-changing seasons, harsh weather and general wear and tear it’s important to keep the gates topped up with the correct wood treatment. By doing this you ensure your gates remain looking good and lasting for as long a time as possible which, in the case of wooden gates like ours, is years and years. Thankfully, you won’t have to go searching for the right treatment because, here at Village Products, we’ve got a range of treatments that you can purchase directly from us! We can advise you about which treatment is the right one so you can rest assured knowing the one you’re applying to your gates is correct.
