Gates in West Chester, PA
A gate is the one part of the fence you touch every day, so it has to swing true and latch without a fight. Whether it goes in with a new fence or joins an existing one, it should look like it was always part of the line.
A good fit for
- Side yard and backyard access
- Wide openings for mowers and equipment
- Adding access to an existing fence
What to think about
- Width
- Think about what needs to pass through: people, wheelbarrows, a mower or a vehicle.
- Swing
- Which way it opens, and whether the ground rises in the path of the swing.
- Hardware
- Hinges and latches sized to the gate, including self-closing options where a pool requires them.
