900 x 900 domed picket gate manufactured to provide a traditional, decorative, and durable solution for garden entrances, front boundaries, and pathway access. Measuring approximately 900mm wide by 900mm high to the shoulders, with an overall height of approximately 1050mm to the top of the dome, this gate offers a classic picket appearance with an elegant curved finish.
Each 900 x 900 domed picket gate is constructed using vertical timber pickets fixed to a solid rear frame. The timber is fully pressure treated through a tanalisation process, providing long-term protection against rot, fungal decay, and insect attack. This treatment makes the gate suitable for year-round outdoor use and helps extend its service life with minimal maintenance.
The gate is built using a traditional ledged and braced construction on the rear. Horizontal ledges provide strength across the width of the gate, while the diagonal brace helps prevent sagging and movement over time. This proven construction method ensures the gate remains stable, aligned, and easy to operate when installed correctly.
The defining feature of this gate is its domed top. The curved profile softens the appearance of the gate and adds a decorative finish that enhances traditional garden and property styles. While the gate measures approximately 900mm in height at the sides, the dome rises to around 1050mm at its highest point, creating an attractive focal feature without compromising accessibility.
Picket gates are known for their open and welcoming appearance. The evenly spaced vertical pickets allow light and visibility through the gate, making it particularly suitable for front gardens, pathways, and decorative boundaries where privacy is not the main requirement. The domed top adds character while maintaining the open feel that picket fencing is known for.
The square 900mm width provides comfortable pedestrian access and makes the gate ideal for everyday use. It is commonly installed as part of a matching picket fence system or used as a standalone feature at garden entrances and pathways. The additional height created by the dome adds visual presence without making the gate feel imposing.
Customers must specify which side the hinges are to be fitted on, depending on whether the gate will be hung from the left or the right. This ensures the ledged and braced construction is oriented correctly so the diagonal brace supports the weight of the gate effectively. Correct hinge orientation is essential for smooth operation and long-term durability.
This domed picket gate can be hung between timber posts or used with suitable concrete or steel posts when appropriate fixings are selected. Due to its relatively lightweight construction compared to solid gates, it operates smoothly on standard gate hinges while still providing good strength and stability.
For best results, the gate should be installed with adequate ground clearance to allow for drainage and seasonal movement. Fence posts should be securely set and remain plumb, as correct installation plays a key role in maintaining alignment and ensuring the gate opens and closes freely over time.
The natural timber finish allows the gate to blend seamlessly with matching picket fencing panels and other garden features. It can be left to weather naturally or finished with a suitable exterior paint or stain if a specific colour or appearance is desired. Any additional finishes should be compatible with pressure-treated timber to preserve the effectiveness of the tanalisation.
This 900 x 900 domed picket gate is suitable for both domestic and light trade use. It can be supplied as part of a new picket fencing installation or used as a replacement gate where an existing entrance needs refreshing. Its decorative domed top makes it particularly popular for period properties, cottage-style gardens, and traditional front boundaries.
The gate offers a practical balance between function and appearance. Its ledged and braced construction provides dependable structural support, while the picket design and domed profile enhance the overall character of the fence line.
Picket gates with a domed top remain a popular choice for front gardens and decorative fencing due to their timeless style and inviting appearance. They provide clear boundaries without creating a closed or restrictive feel, making them ideal for spaces where visibility and approachability are important.
If you are looking for a decorative timber gate that complements picket fencing and adds a traditional finishing touch to your garden entrance, the 900 x 900 domed picket gate offers a reliable and visually appealing solution.
