The Rowlinson Cottage Wooden Gate Kit offers a charming and flexible solution for garden entrances or pathways. Whether you’re defining the front of your home or creating a welcoming entrance to a private outdoor space, this gate brings classic cottage style and practical adaptability. Supplied as a self-assembly kit, it can be built to your desired width—from 760mm to 1205mm—making it ideal for various gate openings. Want to cover a wider entrance? Two gates can be installed together to span driveways or larger access points up to 2.4 metres wide.
Quality Craftsmanship with Natural Appeal
This gate is built from kiln-dried, sustainably sourced European softwood, giving it both strength and environmental peace of mind. The design includes beautiful 12mm vertical tongue and groove cladding for a solid, attractive finish, topped with an open slatted section for extra style. The timber is left untreated, so you can paint or stain it to suit your garden aesthetic—whether rustic, traditional, or modern. The framing is robust at 60x43mm, and thanks to the kiln drying process, the timber is more stable and less likely to warp or twist over time. The kit is supplied flat-packed for convenient home assembly, giving you the freedom to install it exactly how and where you want.
