Description
Quick answer: These metal farm gates provide practical access control for field entrances, paddocks, yards and agricultural openings. The range includes listed Box Gate and Channel Gate options in selected widths; choose the variant that matches the clear opening and the existing post and hanging system.
What are metal farm gates used for?
Use them to create a durable opening in stock fencing, field boundaries or yard entrances. They are intended for agricultural and utility access rather than as a direct substitute for a timber garden gate.
- Available in selected nominal widths from 4ft to 16ft.
- Box and channel gate options are listed separately.
- Suitable for field, paddock and yard access when correctly hung and restrained.
- Metal construction avoids the privacy and decorative purpose of close-boarded timber gates.
What else do I need?
The gate requires suitable posts, correctly matched hanging components and a closing arrangement. Depending on the gate and post system, compatible parts may include an adjustable gate eye, drive-in field gate hook, gate hanger on plate or safety gate hooks and eyes. Check all pin and eye diameters before combining products. A suitable chain, catch or bolt may also be required.
Alternatives
For pedestrian garden access, choose a timber gate such as the featheredge garden gate or hit and miss garden gate. Timber gates provide more screening but are not intended to replace a correctly specified agricultural field gate.
Before ordering: Measure the clear opening between finished posts and allow for the complete hinge and catch arrangement. Confirm the selected gate type, actual dimensions, handing, ground clearance and hardware requirements. Wide gates create substantial leverage on posts; the posts and foundations must be suitable for the gate and site conditions.
