Abbey Decking Systems & Fencing Services - Derby, Derbyshire (Domestic & Commercial)

The installation of gates and side panels give your property additional security.

Gates are fitted with suitable hinges which will vary based on the type and weight of the gate. The latch and bolt is also provided so all you will need to add is the padlock.

There is a wide range of gates available including field and ranch gates.

Gates be made to any size required but standard gate is generally 36 inches wide (3ft) by 6ft high.

Below is a sample of gate installations carried out and if you scroll down to the bottom of the page you will find a range of gate designs available.
