The fencing for the back yard looks great, but the same cannot be said for the gates. Now is the time to consider making a change. One way to go is to talk with a professional about the possibilities offered by Custom Garden Gates. Here are some details to consider when coming up with the ideal design for the custom gate.
The Dimensions
How large must the gate be in order to work properly and also add something to the overall look of the space? Consider the height as well as the width. While it may be fine to have the gate be a focal point by going with something slightly taller than the fencing, it rarely works to settle for a gate that is shorter. A professional can provide some insight into how tall the gate has to be in order to provide the visual effect desired.
Thinking About Materials
A traditional approach is to construct Custom Garden Gates out of the same materials used for the fencing. For example, if the fence is made using harvested railroad ties, creating a gate using the same type of material will add a sense of continuity and unity to the look. A professional can create the gate using the fence design as the inspiration.
Another way to go is to consider using a different material for the gate. Perhaps the fencing around the garden or back yard happens to be made with planks that are stained a deep brown. Think of how well a custom wrought iron gate would look with the dark wood. While the gate is different from the rest of the fencing, the two materials will work well together.
The Design
What sort of custom gate would please the property owner? For some, a design that is simple and not cluttered with any excess ornamentation is the way to go. Others may want a design that is elaborate and serves as a focal point for the grounds. Whatever the client has in mind, a professional can help come up with a design that is sure to please.
