Composite Gates

Composite gates are being specified more and more in Nottingham as well as the rest of the country. Typically a composite gate whether a garden gate or composite driveway gate will not be 100% composite. Composite gates, or rather the composite boards will be framed within metal which will secure them in place. As well as composite boards this trend is also growing for wooden gates but metal framing for composite boards is becoming more popular as you will never have to treat the composite boards.
As we provide a bespoke gate service we can build using almost any
composite fence panels to form a gate. So if you have your heart set on a particular composite let us know and we'll double check it's suitability. However, we find that most people are happy with our selection however the option is there to ensure you get the garden gate you're after. We can discuss your requirements for a composite fence and matching gate and the best way for us to get and build your bespoke composite gate.

Composite Garden Gates

When is comes to deciding on a composite gate there are a number of decision you will need to make. Firstly you will need to decide on the composite boards. When our surveyor comes to measure up he will bring samples of some of the more popular composite board options. As most popular is our grey embossed composite panels which have a texture and look of wood and are more traditional in looks. Our smoother finished boards provide a more modern, contemporary look and as a result they will mostly be finished with a flat top.

As you will see below you can also have a choice on the topping of the gate in terms of keeping it plain or finishing with filigree such as spear tops, which can also be painted in a colour of your choice. You will also see an example below where we have built in a decorative composite trellis.

You can also decide if you want to want to keep your gate rectangular or are or even concave the topping. If you have your own ideas we're happy to take them on board and since all they are made to measure composite gates we can pretty much make it the way you want. The important part will be the fixings, which is why a survey is so important to ensure that the weight of the gate can be supported properly - if it can, then we'll make your design choices a reality!

Metal and Composite Gates  Nottingham

Virtually all composite gates feature a metal frame surround. Almost all our customers choose to have a black finish on the metal that provides a very neat frame and as well as helping with the aesthetics. It also provides a robust surround for the composites and keeps them in place when subjected to temperature fluctuation which will cause the boards to expand and contract a little over the seasons. They also provide a strong fixing point for hinges and other ironworks such as locks and bolts so once finished you will have a solid gate which will require little to no maintenance for many many years.

Composite Garden Gate Panels

It is relatively easy to seamlessly integrate your gate into your fence and mostly for access to the back of a house we make wooden gates. However, your main decision will be on deciding what width to have your gate as we can provide bespoke sizes, don't feel you need to go with a standard size if this doesn't meet your needs. if you have a the space it makes sense to have a wide side gate as it will make it so much easier to transport items through from the from of your property through to the rear.

Often your garden will have large items coming in to it or going out from it. This could be items for the garden itself - such as large mature plants or shrubs, wheelbarrows or trailers carrying heavy items such as sleepers and slabs. Other large items can include garden leisure items such as a new table and chair set or occasional party accessories such as a gazebo or bouncy castle for children. There's nothing worst than having an item delivered and then trying to wrestle the item around or up and over walls and fences to get it to your back garden, by combining our wooden fence and gate installation we can manage the size and space of your gate and access through it perfectly.
You may want to fit a double gate or simply combine a section of fencing up to the gate post and then have a single wide wooden fence - whatever you want, we can make it and fit it.

  • Would you recommend composite gates over wooden ones??

    If it is within your budget then - Yes. 

    Composite gates are known to be more durable than traditional wooden gates. This is because composite gates are made from a mixture of materials such as wood fibers and plastic, which makes them highly resistant to rot, warping, and insect infestation. Unlike wooden gates, composite gates do not require regular maintenance such as painting or staining, and they can withstand harsh weather conditions without deteriorating. Additionally, composite gates are less prone to cracking or splitting, which further enhances their durability. Rather than fixing in wooden posts they are fixed into steel posts too. So overall, composite gates offer a longer lifespan and require less upkeep compared to traditional wooden gates, making them a more durable option.

  • What are you composite garden gates made of?

    We almost always use composite fence panels, rather than composite deck boards - occasionally composite wall panels with a welded steel metal surround finished in black high durability paint. The ironmongery with composite gates often include a key lock as well as a bolt lock.

  • What is your most popular composite gate?

    Currently our most popular garden composite gate is a rectangle flat topped black metal frame with grey embossed composite panels, set vertically.

  • Are composite gates more expensive than wooden gates?

    Yes - composite gates are typically 2 to 3 times more expensive than wooden gates. This is because composite gates are made from a combination of materials, such as wood fibers and recycled plastics, which can be more costly to manufacture than wood. Since they are set in a metal surround they this requires steel and the skills of a welder who may also need to fit and weld on site to get a perfect install. Additionally, composite gates often require specialized tools and techniques for installation, which can add to the overall cost. Wooden gates are generally more affordable as they are made from natural materials that are readily available. However, it is important to note that the exact cost of composite and wooden gates can vary depending on factors such as size, design, and the panels and frame selected.

  • Can composite gates be customised to match the style of a home or garden?

    Yes - at Nottingham Fencing our composite gates can be customised to match the style of a home or garden - especially a composite fence and decking.  As we make these ourselves we can offer full customisation you can vary the panels and the frame and therefore the shape too. We'll let you be creative as you want but will advise on any designs that may be a problem in terms of fitting in the gap, installing or longevity. You can customise on the ironmongery too which can also influence the style of your gate.
