Determining Your Gate Dimensions
Welcome to Williams Gateworks, where precision meets craftsmanship. To ensure your custom wooden gate fits perfectly and functions flawlessly, we need accurate measurements. Follow these detailed instructions based on your specific opening type.
Arch-Top Gate for Existing Arch-Top Opening
In the case you want an arch-top gate to match your existing arch-top opening (radius, height and width), you must provide us with the following three dimensions:
- Measure the horizontal distance (A) between your existing posts, columns, or walls
- Measure the vertical distance (B) from the ground to the beginning of the arch
- Measure the vertical distance (C) from the ground to the top of the arch
Flat-Top Gate for Arch-Top Opening
In the case where you wish to put a flat-top gate in a pre-existing arch-top opening, you need only provide us with measurement A and your desired gate height.
- Measure the horizontal distance (A) between your existing posts, columns, or walls
- Specify your desired gate height
Rectangular Opening
In the case you have an existing rectangular opening, you must provide us with the following two dimensions:
- Measure the horizontal distance (A) between your existing posts, columns, or walls
- Measure the vertical distance (B) from the ground to your desired gate height
Keep in mind measurement B is only your desired gate height, and may not necessarily correspond to the height of your existing posts, columns, or walls.
