Choose Composite Fencing With A Gate

Most garden spaces will need an entrance, but how easy is it to incorporate composite fencing with a gate? It can vary depending on the material you choose. NeoTimber’s modular fencing system unlocks greater customisation, enabling you to painlessly insert a composite gate post fencing installation. That way, you can match both the look and feel of your NeoTimber® fencing without any of the hassle.

In this article, we will outline all of the benefits of implementing composite fencing with a gate into your project.

NeoTimber’s composite gates consist of stacked individual boards, nestled in an aluminium frame. Partially made from the same boards that we use for our fencing panels, these gates perfectly match both the colour and texture of your prior fencing choice. Be it slatted or deluxe woodgrain textures coloured in antique, teak, chocolate, grey, or charcoal, we make sure your gates become a seamless part of your fencing.

Partnered with the fact that the aluminium frame of the gate is, like the capping rail, inserts, and post caps, powder coated with colour-matched tones, our products remove all the painful parts of fencing. We save you time and effort in every possible way, making us the best choice you can make for your composite journey.

First impressions count, and this remains true for the entrance for an outdoor space. With timber and concrete gate options, staining and discolouration can ruin your garden’s vibe completely. Consistency goes out the window when your fence and gates are falling apart. So, what’s the solution? You need to choose a better material. One that stays standing, and looks beautiful doing it.

Thankfully, NeoTimber’s unique capped composite make-up of the composite fencing boards within the metal gate frame makes them extremely easy to clean. Any staining can be simply hosed down, or gently scrubbed out with a sponge, washing up liquid, and a bucket of warm water. On top of this, the composite boards are imbued with UV inhibitors – ones that help to defend your gate from fading.

Not to mention, the aluminium gate frame of NeoTimber’s solution is designed to be fixed between metal gate posts. Just like our composite post inserts, these metal gate posts act as a channel for the tongue-and-groove boards. This allows them to be stacked on top of one another. Ultimately, we enable easy connection between your completed fence panels and the framework of the composite gate.

The gate post support should be fixed onto a hard ground surface, with one post taking the gate’s hinges and the other holding the gate in place. And, even though it’s designed to work in tandem with NeoTimber’s composite fencing solution, you can also install it as a standalone product. Because of this versatility, NeoTimber’s composite gates have become a market favourite.

Unlike a timber gate, the strength of both the aluminium frame and the composite boards ensures a greater longevity. Because it’s impervious to the effects of moisture damage and weathering, our gates excel in every way. In fact, we’re so confident in the long life of the composite gate, we back our claims up with a fantastic warranty. With your purchase, you’ll receive a market-leading 25-year residential warranty, or a 10-year commercial warranty depending on use.

Because the placement of the lock will need to be cut into the frame, the design also allows for right hand and left-hand installation. So, you don’t have to fret about lack of flexibility; we have this covered too. Once this gap is cut away, the lock mechanism will simply slot into place.

We hope you love our composite gates as much as we do!
