Unusable timber gates 

Wooden gate posts ultimately rot through at ground level and break, this problem is much worse on  gate posts because of large loads on the post from the hanging gate especially with heavier  wooden gates . Any weakness in the post and they bend over or worse still break off leaving you with unusable timber gates or worse still  broken wooden gates.

And as anyone who has had to change a gate post knows this is a big problem. Removing the rotten large post which is normally concreted in place is heavy and difficult work. And replacement gate posts are very expensive and require careful installation along with time consuming re-hanging of the gate.

A highly effective solution

Because of this most contractors charge anything from £100 to £200 to replace a gate post and all because a small part of the gate post has rotted through at ground level. Add in changes in preservative legislation this problem is not set to get any better.

A proven and highly effective solution to this problem are  ground line barrier sleeves which stop wood rot preventing  the post rotting off in the first place ,keeping you gate standing longer… much longer.
