Appleton Design Hardwood Garden Gate
This Appleton design hardwood garden gate, crafted from durable Iroko hardwood, is the perfect addition to your home, combining style and security. Featuring an elegant arched top, this gate offers a classic look that enhances your property’s curb appeal while providing practical benefits.
Whether you’re looking to secure your garden or simply add a welcoming touch, a wooden garden gate is an excellent choice. Wooden gates are an increasingly popular alternative to metal gates due to their versatility, durability, and the range of treatments available that enhance their lifespan. These treatments also help protect your gate from the elements, ensuring it withstands the changing seasons and maintains its beautiful appearance.
Key Features of the Appleton Design:
- 95mm x 45mm thick planed bracing for additional strength and support.
- 70mm thick mortice and tenon framework for a secure, durable structure.
- Inset boards for a smooth and finished look that complements the overall design.
In addition to the gate itself, we offer optional upgrades:
- Premium galvanised heavy-duty adjustable hinge kit for effortless operation.
- Premium heavy-duty gate lock, complete with 5 keys, to ensure added security.
- Matching wall posts that extend 45mm from the wall for a cohesive and polished finish.
- External UV protection oil to preserve the gate’s condition and protect it from weathering.

Wooden work of art
The team re-checked my measurements and tweaked the size by 5mm. When it arrived it was so much bigger and heavier than expected — but fits perfectly. I've been looking at all the neighbourhood gates for weeks. I believe I've got the best gate in town.

Superior to other manufacturers
My driveway gates replaced a set from another well-known manufacturer. Stellar Gates are of an extremely high quality and superior to other gate manufacturers I have used. I would have no hesitation in recommending.
