Trifold Swan Neck Inverted Made to Measure Wooden Gates

Trifold Swan Neck Inverted Made to Measure Wooden Gates

Our trifold swan neck wooden gates are the perfect solution for driveways with a limited depth. They have the ability to be folded in half prior to opening whilst maintaining the strength of a standard set of wooden double gates. A further advantage to our range of bifold gates are that they’re virtually pedestrian sized gates making them easy to manoeuvre.

All of our made to measure wooden gates are constructed from premium quality engineered Scandinavian Redwood at 60mmx120mm thick treated with a clear preservative to leave you free to choose whichever finish you would like.

The construction of our made to measure gates are known as framed ledged and braced. All joints are mortise and tenon, dowelled and wedged to ensure each set of gates have a high life expectancy.

The boards on every gate are also manufactured from the same premium Scandinavian Redwood. These are all tongue and grooved together with a V detail to each panel. The pins we use are stainless steel to further guarantee longevity.

When you order a set of wooden gates from Made to Measure Wooden Gates, you are guaranteed a premium product backed by a first class service…every time.

Horn Information

Great care and attention to detail is applied to the finishing of all our made to measure wooden gates and this includes the Horns / Pommels.

They are designed to protect the top joints from any water ingress and premature failure, ensuring a longer life expectancy. They also further enhance the elegance and appearance of each and every gate that we manufacture. Two options are available on all of our wooden gates, round or 45 degree chamfer.

Timber Options

We also offer two further timber options, these are Accoya and Iroko.

Accoya has unprecedented reliability for timber; it’s trusted not to visibly swell, shrink or distort, with minimal movement, furthermore, it stays that way for 50 years above ground, and 25 years below ground. Accoya is a highly proven product and has been extensively tested in real life conditions, over many years.

Accoya is so reliable that for many years it has been, and continues to be used by scientists as the benchmark against which other treatments and modified timbers are measured.

African Iroko wood is a tough, dense, highly durable wood with a rich coloured grain. It is often referred to as Nigerian Teak. Iroko wood is the ideal substitute for teak and is many people’s number one choice.

The Iroko tree is native to the west coast of Africa making it ideal for outdoor applications, such as wooden garden gates.
