Burrundulla double gates by PH Fencing in Mudgee, NSW.
PH Fencing gave Australian Fencing Awards some key information on their Burrundulla double gates project.
Challenges involved in the project
- Our challenge was constructing a suitably heavy double gates, each three metres wide and a matching single gate from material available locally that would withstand stock pressure while aesthetically looking fabulous to go with the fence we built for our client. It had to be custom made to fit the height of the post and rail fence.
Products used on the project
- PH Fencing individually selected suitable kiln dried 90 and 140mm Merbau non-reeded decking lengths from the local Mudgee Bunnings store and Galvanised Cup Head Bolts from Complete Steel and Rural. Cabots New Timber Prep was used to bring out the tannins, Cabots Deck Clean to remove the Timber Prep and Wattyl Weatherguard WB Deck Oil - Natural was used to bring out the great colour. Poplar timber hinges were used to swing the gates.
Outcome of the project
- Putting together good gates is a one-step-at-a-time project requiring patience, a good eye for detail and at attitude that never accepts workmanship less than the best that can be achieved. These Double Cross Braced Gates are beautiful, functional and cost effective.
This project by PH Fencing is a finalist in the Australian FENCING Awards 2021.
