More Information

Crestala’s Frant slatted top tongue and groove gates are manufactured on-site in our workshop by our Gatemakers. All our Frant gates are made to order to the dimensions you specify.

Frant slatted top tongue and groove gates manufactured by Crestala are robust yet offer good value for money. The timber used is pressure-treated, joinery-grade, slow-growing Scandinavian redwood. The treatment provides good protection against rot and also insect attacks.

We can supply all the fittings you need to hang and secure your new Frant gate. We recommend fitting adjustable hinges to alleviate any seasonal gate movement.

If you are unsure about measuring for a gate, please read our blog, Measuring for new side or entrance gates which provides guidance on the measuring process or speak to a member of our Sales Team.

Widths over 1.2m can be made but are not guaranteed.
We recommend using a heavy frame for gate widths over 1.2m wide.  Please contact our Sales Team for more information.

Like all wooden gates, Frant slatted top tongue and groove gates made by Crestala need to be stored, treated and cared for properly before and after hanging.  Please, read the recommendations on our “Important Gate Care Information” sheet for more detailed instructions. Failure to follow these instructions may invalidate any future claims.

Treated softwood gates are susceptible to natural movement or shaking (cracks in the timber) as the timber expands & contracts during the normal weathering process. This is not considered to be a defect unless it is very severe.

*Measurements before the wood is planed. It’s roughly 5mm smaller than the original size.
