Choosing The Perfect Metal Garden Gate
When choosing what kind of gate-opening style you need, there are a few important factors to consider. Swing the door inward into your driveway. If space is very valuable, which means that if you need to allow the swing of the door, the parking space will be limited, then you may need to consider a set of sliding doors.
In order to install the sliding door, you need to have the same space, the width of the door should be on the entrance side so that the door can slide back when it is opened. In addition to the traditional sliding doors, you may consider using a cantilever system if you do not want to perform ground operations on the driveway for tracking. This suspension of the door operation Way makes the appearance of the installation clearer, almost silent operation.
What Maintenance Is Required?
Regardless of what type of gate you choose, all of our ironwork is galvanized prior to painting. This process involves dipping the finished ironwork into a vat of molten zinc. Once complete, this provides the steel with a permanent rust-proof coat that can be painted directly over. Your gates will last a lifetime after this process.
Your painted ironwork will require an occasional cleaning with mild soapy water to keep it looking like new. If you come to one of our showrooms, most of the iron garden gate displays have electric motors and a range of intercoms so we can show you what combination of systems might work best for your home or commercial property.
