The Universal On the larger sizes of the universal, the double cross bracing gives the gate its distinctive diamond shape at the centre, and makes it exceptionally strong. This traditional design incorporates mortice and tenon joints, 'water' joints at each end of the top rail and bolts at all crossings (stainless steel bolts used). The Universal gates are framed, ledged and braced, also bolted for extra strength and durability.
The hanging stile is wider than the catch stile with the top rail tapering to reduce weight on the gate enhancing the life-span.
Supplied in treated green Tanalith'e' softwood or untreated Iroko hardwood. Iroko is a top quality hardwood, yellowish / brown in colour and similar to teak in its texture and properties. This wood makes a superb entrance gate.
While very durable, we recommend you use Sikkens or Sadolins to preserve the timber.
Please note: All our height sizes are to the highest point on the gate (including any horns.
