Description

This metal framed timber gate combines a heavy-duty black box-section steel frame with horizontal timber slat infill, creating a striking side entrance gate that sits neatly between brick pillars. Fitted with a house number plaque and a robust latch mechanism, it’s the kind of gate that adds real kerb appeal while keeping a secure, framed structure around the wood panels.

Design of This Metal Framed Timber Gate

The design pairs a slim black powder-coated steel outer frame with stacked horizontal timber boards, giving the gate a warm, natural look without losing the strength of a metal-built structure.

Timber Slat Infill

• Rows of horizontal wooden boards fitted flush within the metal frame
• Each slat fixed with visible bolt fixings along the full width
• Natural wood grain and tone left visible for a warm finish

Black Steel Framework

• Solid black box-section frame forming the outer edge and central rails
• Sturdy hinge fixings anchored directly into the brick pillar
• Compact single-leaf design suited to a narrow side opening

Beyond the timber panels, this metal framed timber gate includes practical hardware that supports everyday use as a side or pedestrian entrance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this gate suitable for a narrow side opening?

Yes, this metal framed timber gate is built as a single leaf, making it well suited to narrow side passages, alleyways, and secondary access points rather than a wide double driveway opening.

Can the timber slats be seen through?

No, the horizontal timber boards are fitted flush against one another within the metal frame, forming a solid screen rather than an open-bar design.

Can a house number be added to the gate?

Yes, as shown in the photo a house number plaque can be fixed to the top rail of the timber infill, positioned centrally within the metal frame.
