Wideopen gate post supply — drives, doubles, garden gates
Gate post is what most Wideopen fencers reach for first. Gate posts are heavier than fence posts — most drive gates need 6"×6" (150×150mm) timber a minimum of 8ft long, so the post can go a metre into concrete with another 5ft above ground. Garden side-return gates can use a 4×4 if the gate is light. We deliver across Wideopen and Dinnington and the wider Tyne and Wear footprint — Same-day.
Whether you're laying a single back-garden run on a Dinnington or Hazlerigg property or quoting a multi-house developer plot, the timber's the same: pressure-treated softwood, sized properly, dropped where you need it.
