Farmweld heritage style country gates and farm gates are constructed from metal and are made to withstand the daily wear and tear of rural life. With the exception of the wrought iron gates, each country gate is custom made from first grade galvanised steel pipe, not flimsy tubing or aluminium. The steel gate frames are made with a strong 25nb (34mm outer diameter) galvanised steel frame and the time is taken to ensure that all our heritage style country gate designs are strong and safe for you and your animals with no sharp areas or weak joins. Wrought iron gates are made using a combination of different flat steel or square bars and can be comparatively quite heavy. All gates are made to withstand the rigours of heavy animals and regular use and are custom built to fit your gateway, no matter what gate width, so all sizes are catered for. For more infomation about how we construct the gates see below.

The unique heritage style handle featured on most of the country and farm gates is quickly becoming a signature design associated with Farmweld. Modeled on the old style gates or heritage gates of the early 20th Century, this feature adds to the aesthetic appearance and overall functionality of the gate.

Custom made ... 
Not all gateways are a standard size. As such Farmweld custom makes each gate tailoring it to fit any size gateway. For an accurate fit measure the distance between the top and bottom of your gate posts and your gate will be made to the right size. Farmweld can also supply a set of matching powder coated steel gate posts.

Customise your heritage style country gate with extra rails, smaller gauge weld mesh, a different height or decorative scroll work.  Farmweld even hand make swing bows for double gates in a design which complement the gates.

Farmweld custom makes gates to your design and/or specifications. Provide a sketch or photo and a computer generated drawing and quote will be sent to you for your approval.

If you like the look of double gates but prefer the ease of a single leaf, Farmweld can create a mock double gate for you. 

These gates  were adapted for a customer who wanted a variation on the 'Diamond' gate design - they added extra rails and opted for one diamond in each gate. Colour selected is 'Wilderness'  to match their sheds and roof.

The ’Maddison’ and ’Kensington’ gates feature scroll work with 100x150mm weld mesh inserts and are 1100mm tall to the top of the frame. If required, a smaller 50x75mm weld mesh can be substituted at extra cost for use with smaller animals or horses. All other gates are approximately 1200mm tall.  

The newly released 'Eleanor' is the first of our wrought iron entrance gates and is made mainly of flat steel as were many of the earlier blacksmithed heritage gates. This gate can be left raw and allowed to rust adding to it's aged appearance.

Field Gates 
Farmweld offers three styles of galvanised steel field gates or paddock gates all of which are a standard 1200mm tall with optional powder coating. The range consists of a weld mesh gate and two steel pipe gate designs which are suitable for larger animals such as horses that have a tendency to lean on gates and/or rub their tails off on the weld mesh. The ‘horizontal bar’ gate has six rails and the ‘Forest’ gate which has two bars can be set up to 600mm from the ground, preventing animals from getting cast. The Forest gate is available in two steel pipe thicknesses, 25nb (34mm outer diameter) or 32nb (43mm outer diameter).

Weld mesh gates can be braced with the addition of either one, two or three vertical braces, a “Z” or “W” brace. Gates 14'/4.2m and over have a single vertical brace as standard. Gates can be made to different heights, e.g. 950mm tall with mesh for sheep. Other sized meshes are available such as a finer 75 x 50 mesh for alpacas, yearlings or smaller animals.

Garden Gates & Courtyard Gates

Farmweld custom makes garden gates and courtyard gates to match any of the above heritage gate designs. As above, garden gates can be made to your specifications or we can design a unique garden gate for you. If you'd like a smaller version of the larger heritage style country gates above please note that anything smaller than 1200mm will look odd with the handle - the smallest we can bend a handle is 50cm..

When ordering a garden gate remember to allow enough of a gap between gate posts to get a wheelbarrow or ride on mower through comfortably.

In addition to the weld mesh and steel bar infills shown on this page we can also insert chain mesh (also known as cyclone mesh or link mesh) or heritage woven wire. Due to the varying size of garden and courtyard gates prices are on application. Please nominate the type of infill (e.g. weld mesh, chain mesh, bars, etc) and gate dimensions.

Wrought Iron Gates
The 'Florence' pictured above, was the first of our true wrought iron garden gates and was followed by the release of the 'Eleanor'. The 'Florence' makes an attractive wall ornament or more practically a beautiful feature entrance garden gate.These gates are made of black steel and can be left raw, allowing them to rust before being sealed, for that authentic heritage look. See introductory special on 'News' page.

Design Service
We offer a design service and can custom make a unique gate for you. Designs are drawn up and emailed or posted to you for your authorisation. If you have a drawing or photo of something you'd like made up please send it to us and we'll provide you with a quote.

We have a range of standard wrought iron gate toppers (as pictured on the courtyard gate above right), decorative gate inserts and pressed metal ornaments such as leaves, spears, scrolls, fleurons and flowers which can incorporated to create a unique wrought iron gate reminiscent of old world gates or we can fabricate a gate to your specifications.  Click here to download a sample of our standard garden gate and entrance gate toppers like those below.

• We pride ourselves on making our field gates and heritage style country gates strong, well made and built to last. 
• Hinge sockets are welded on to all powder coated gates to minimise any abrasion on the coating. Paddock gates and heritage style country gates are easy to install on ordinary field gate gudgeons. 
• If you have masonry or steel posts we can make gudgeons to suit. 
• Steel gate posts can be made to match your gates along with decorative gate post caps or tops, e.g. spheres.
• To minimise any rust formation all welds and black steel are primed prior to being powder coated.

Gate fittings are generally not included so if they are required please order these at the same time as your gate. Some items may need to be welded on prior to powder coating, e.g. drop pins and gate bows. 

How do I order a gate?
If you'd like to place an order please let us know the distance between your posts so that we can make the gate to 'fit'.
