Description

These wood effect metal driveway gates pair a robust anthracite grey metal frame with warm timber-toned vertical infill panels, creating a double swing gate that feels both traditional and low-fuss. The raised, curved swan-neck top is finished with a decorative scrolled band of interlocking rings and a row of pointed spear finials, giving the entrance a country-house feel while the wood effect panelling brings colour and texture without the upkeep of solid timber.

Design and Visible Features of These Wood Effect Metal Driveway Gates

Each leaf of this pair is fully clad in tightly spaced vertical slats finished in a rich golden-oak wood effect tone, framed top and bottom by solid anthracite grey rails and posts.

Swan-Neck Top with Scrollwork

The top edge of each gate curves upward towards the centre in a classic swan-neck profile, with the peak of the curve meeting at the middle where the two leaves close. Running along this curved top is a band of ornamental circular scrolls, finished with a line of tall spear-point finials that add height and presence without blocking the view through to the driveway beyond.

Frame and Panel Construction

The vertical slats are set within a heavy-section metal frame, visible along the bottom rail and central gate posts, giving the wood effect infill a solid, structured backing. Fixing points are visible along the panel edges, showing a neat, evenly spaced installation of the slats into the frame.
