Traditional Wooden Gates
Handcrafted for Character, Built to Last
We design and build traditional wooden gates that combine long-lasting durability with classic, handcrafted appeal. Whether you're looking to secure your driveway, frame a garden entrance, or define the boundaries of a rural estate, our bespoke gates are made to suit both the practical needs and the aesthetic of your property.
Bespoke Gates for Every Setting
No two properties are the same — and your gates should reflect that. We work closely with you to design and build custom gates that complement your home, match existing timberwork, and stand up to the elements.
Our handcrafted wooden gates include:
Driveway Gates – Strong, secure, and made to measure, with a range of traditional styles to suit rural homes, period properties, and farmsteads.
Garden Gates – Elegant and inviting, designed to suit both ornamental and practical garden entrances.
Estate Gates – Larger-scale gates that offer presence and protection, ideal for private roads, long driveways, or agricultural entrances.
Whether you’re after a classic five-bar design, tongue-and-groove panelling, or something more decorative, we’ll create a gate that feels like a natural extension of your property.
Built with Craftsmanship and Care
Every gate we make is built by hand in our workshop, using high-quality, sustainably sourced timber and time-honoured joinery techniques. We carefully select each component for strength, grain, and durability — ensuring that your gates not only look good but are built to withstand daily use and the ever-changing British weather.
You can also choose from a variety of finishes, including natural oiling, painted hardwood, or pressure-treated softwood, to suit your preferred look and level of maintenance.
Designed to Last
Our gates are designed with longevity in mind. From robust frame construction to weather-resistant joints and finishes, we craft gates that stay solid and secure year after year. We can also supply and install gate posts, ironmongery, and automation-ready fittings if required.
