What Bridgwater asks of a gate
Low-lying ground and wet winters
Bridgwater sits on the edge of the Somerset Levels, where the Parrett and the rhynes keep water close to the surface, and plenty of gardens around Westonzoyland, Moorland and the lower streets of town stay wet for weeks in winter. Timber gates standing in damp ground rot from the bottom up. Composite boards do not take on water, and a steel frame galvanised under the powder coat does not rust from inside, so a gate copes with a soaking and dries out unharmed.
Two-tone gates
A gate does not have to be one colour. Boards can be mixed in bands, such as anthracite with timber-effect, like the pair at the top of this page, or a darker frame and lighter boards. It is a way to tie a gate to a house that already mixes materials, like brick with cladding or render with timber, and it costs little more than a single colour.
A lighter top for a tall gate
A fully boarded gate gives privacy but can feel heavy across a narrow passage. A cut-out or screen panel across the top lets some light through while the boards below keep the garden private. The panel is made in steel and powder coated with the frame, so it needs no more looking after than the rest of the gate.
Boards and frame colours
Composite boards
Board ranges vary from one fabricator to another, but they can fit almost any make. If you have seen a board you like, send the name or a photo and the fabricator will tell you whether it can be used.
Steel frames
Frames can be powder coated in almost any RAL colour. Anthracite and black suit two-tone boards, but a frame can be matched to your windows or doors.

FAQs about Composite Gates in Bridgwater
How much do composite gates cost in Bridgwater?
As a guide, a single side or garden gate is around £900 to £1,500 fabricated and fitted, and a pair of driveway gates runs from around £1,800 to £5,000 or more. The width, mixed boards, a screen panel and the finish all move it. Send photos and a width for a provisional price for your opening.
Will a composite gate cope with wet ground?
Yes. The boards do not absorb water or rot, and the frame is galvanised or zinc primed under the powder coat.
Can I have two colours of board on one gate?
Yes. Boards can be mixed in bands, such as anthracite with timber-effect, in the same steel frame.
Can a tall gate let some light through?
Yes. A cut-out or screen panel across the top lets light through while the boards below keep the privacy.
Why do you ask for photos before visiting?
The fabricators on our network cover a wide area, so a visit can mean a long round trip. Photos and a rough width let them give you a provisional price first, and the visit to measure only happens once you are happy with it. You are not waiting in for someone only to find the price does not suit.
Do you cover Burnham-on-Sea, North Petherton and Cannington?
Yes, along with Wembdon, Puriton, Westonzoyland, Highbridge and the villages around them. If you are not sure about your street, send your postcode and we will confirm.
