Description
Our Nannerch drive gates feature a 165mm wide diminishing gunstock head which reduces down from the tallest point at hinge side by 2 3/4″ (70mm).
Available made to measure in European Oak, Idigbo, Meranti as well as Accoya (Acetylated Softwood) and Unsorted Scandinavian Redwood (Softwood) – the Nannerch is ideal if you want a gate for privacy but want a simple bit of shape at the top of the gates!
As a pair of gates, the Nannerch can be manufactured as an unequally split pair with one gate wider than the other to give you a pedestrian access within the pair.
As well as the drive gates pictured, our Nannerch gates are also available as a pedestrian gate meaning you can have a complete matching set of drive gates and pedestrian gates to complete the look, both the pedestrian version and driveway pair can be manufactured either as the more commonly requested close/fully boarded (either vertically or chevron/diagonally boarded) or open boarded.
The Nannerch gates pictured have been customised and are an ‘unequally split’ pair (i.e. one gate is bigger than the other), the traditionally split 50/50 split (each gate being the same size) are also available – please contact us with your requirements.
Want a bigger or smaller pair of gates than what is pictured? No problem, as with every pair of drive gates pictured on our website the Nannerch drive gates are made to suit your own drive – however unusual the sizes, give us a call or email for a full personalised costing!
Have we a pedestrian gate to match? You bet!

Gate Automation
We do not supply gate automation systems with our gates, for gates that are being automated you should source a trained gate automater as it is not a fit and forget install, it is also impossible to supply a gate automation system without the automater first doing a site survey.
Gates once automated are legally classed as a machine and need testing (and signing off as being safe) after install and every 12 months after.
For clearances on installs that are being automated, recommended post sizes and hinge/ironmongery requiremnts then your gate automater should advise as different systems have different specs and requirements.
All our gates can be manufactured to suit both below ground and above ground automation systems. If automating using an above ground system then you will require the gates double bracing. For gates being automated using a below ground system then you will require both double bracing and a full thickness bottom rail.
About Us
Three generations of time served craftsman…
We’re a small family run company, who come from a long line of carpenters and joiners, you could say it’s in our blood.
Based in Rhyl, on the beautiful North Wales coast we produce made to measure wooden gates, side hung wooden garage doors and general joinery items. We began making our own range of gates and garage doors back in 1989, but our business is based on decades of carpentry and joinery expertise that stretches back over three generations. Our work today is still based on the teaching, techniques and craftsmanship of our forefathers.
Measuring Up
All you need to supply us with at this stage to get a price/proceed with an order is the gate height required (at highest point) and the overall opening width.
Between brickwork openings
If you just have a brickwork opening with no posts in place then just measure the opening width (in three places – top, middle & bottom) and use the smallest measurement. Posts can be added as you travel through the steps to order your gates. Keep a note on all three measurements.
You have posts in place – again measure the opening width in three places (top, middle & bottom) and use the smallest measurement. Again keep a note of all three measurements however.
Gates hung on posts sunk into the ground –
If you’ve already posts sunk ito the ground then it’s just a case of measuring the width between these posts. Again measure the opening top, middle and bottom and let us have the smallest measurement.
If you require posts
Clearances – At this stage do not worry about clearances on your gates in width. Clearances will vary depending on how you intend to hang the gates and once an order is received we will contact you to discuss this.
Timbers
We use 5 timbers –
Unsorted Scandinavian Redwood (Softwood)
Meranti (Hardwood)
Idigbo (Hardwood)
A1 Accoya (Modified Softwood)
Prime European Oak (Hardwood)
Our Scandinavian Redwood products are supplied preservative treated (straw coloured) ready for decoration.
Clear preservatives can be added to all our other timbers (with exception of the Accoya) and all are then supplied ready for decoration.
If painting then the Scan Redwood, Meranti or Accoya are the best options. All our timbers can be stained, however is planning on staining the Accoya then please do let us know, as a by product of the modification process the Accoya can have visible black staining/marks which we have to remove, this can result in the gates finishing at 65mm thick rather than our usual 70mm thick.
