Gate Installation Services In South Wales
Garden Gates South Wales | Supplied & Fitted by Local Specialists
The fence is up and the garden’s coming together. The last thing you need is a gate that doesn’t hang right, doesn’t match the fencing, or starts dropping before the year is out.
Garden Gate Specialists Across South Wales & Herefordshire
Fitting a gate looks simple until you’ve seen one done badly. Posts that aren’t set deep enough. Hinges that pull away from the frame. A gate that starts sagging six months after it went in.

Timber Options, What We Use and Why
The material you choose affects how long your gate lasts, how it looks over time, and how much it costs. Andrew will advise on the site visit based on your budget and how the gate will be used.
Pressure-treated softwood
The most practical choice for most domestic garden gates. It holds up well in Welsh weather, takes paint or stain easily, and offers good durability without the hardwood price tag. This is what most gates in the area are built from.
Hardwood (oak and similar)
More expensive upfront but significantly more durable long-term. If you want a gate that will last decades and take on a natural weathered character, hardwood is worth the investment. Popular on rural and countryside properties.
All timber we use is suited to outdoor use. We don’t fit untreated wood that will deteriorate quickly in the Welsh climate.
Why Homeowners Across South Wales Choose Classic Paving & Fencing
35+ Years
Experience
We have been setting fence posts and fitting gates across Monmouthshire, Herefordshire and the South Wales Valleys for over three decades. That kind of experience shows in the small things: how deep the posts go, how the hinges are set, and how the gate sits in the frame when the job’s done.
We match gates to your existing fencing
A gate that doesn’t match the fence looks like an afterthought. We install gates in styles that complement what’s already there: feather edge, closeboard, and panel, so the finished result looks considered, not cobbled together.
Free on-site quotes with honest advice
No ballpark figures over the phone. We visit the property, measure the opening, check the ground conditions, and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does garden gate installation cost in South Wales?
The cost depends on the size of the gate, the type of timber, and whether new posts are needed. A single standard timber gate with new posts typically starts from around £250, with double gates and more complex installations costing more. The best way to get an accurate figure is to request a free on-site quote — Andrew will visit, measure up, and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Can you match a new gate to my existing fencing style?
Yes. If you have feather edge, closeboard or panel fencing already in place, we can install a gate in the same style and timber. A gate that genuinely matches the fencing — rather than a standard off-the-shelf option bolted onto an existing fence — makes a significant difference to the finished look of a property.
How long does garden gate installation take?
Most single gate installations are completed in half a day to a full day. If the existing posts are solid and the opening is a standard width, it can be quicker. Double gates or jobs with significant ground preparation may take a full day. Andrew will give you a realistic timeframe on the site visit.
