Installation advice
Assemble the pedestrian gate on a flat surface. Start with the 3 cross rails (bottom, middle and top), then pre-drill and attach the 6 slats using the 108 stainless steel screws supplied. A diagonal brace (not included) is recommended for windy locations or heavy use. The hinges must be able to support at least 30 kg. Apply a Douglas fir oil before installation to retain the colour.
Care and protection
Care is the same as for the profiled-slat model: apply outdoor oil annually to maintain the colour, and check the screws and alignment each spring. Douglas fir turns grey within 6 to 12 months without losing mechanical strength.
WoodUp advice
Before you buy: this straight-slat pedestrian gate does not include fixing posts. These must be purchased separately to suit your installation, whether timber, metal or masonry posts. The 150x24 mm slats are wider than standard fence slats (91x21 mm), giving a more substantial appearance. Natural Douglas fir can be left unfinished, in which case it will gradually turn grey, or oiled to retain its original colour for longer.
Frequently asked questions
Is this straight-slat pedestrian gate cheaper than the profiled-slat model?
The two models have the same components and dimensions. Any difference in price is due solely to the slat profile – check the current prices on the product pages.
Does this kit include the fixing posts?
No. Supporting posts must be purchased separately. For a 25 kg pedestrian gate, choose posts with a section of at least 10x10 cm, or set metal posts into the ground for optimum stability.
Can this pedestrian gate be painted after assembly?
Yes. Unfinished Douglas fir can be coated with any breathable exterior paint. Apply a wood primer before the finishing coat. Ideally, paint the slats before assembly so you can reach their inner faces easily.
What is the estimated lifespan of this Douglas fir pedestrian gate?
With annual maintenance using outdoor oil, a Douglas fir pedestrian gate with a 150x24 mm section can last 15 to 20 years. Without maintenance, natural greying is accompanied by slight surface deterioration after 5 to 8 years, without compromising the structure.
Is this pedestrian gate suitable for a vegetable garden entrance or a children’s garden?
Yes, for a vegetable garden entrance. For a garden used by children, check the spacing between the slats (5 to 10 cm depending on the configuration) and add more slats if necessary to reduce the gaps.
