Types of wickets and gates

The assortment of our company includes gates and wickets from different materials   - wooden, metal, from profiled sheet, from mesh-netting, etc. They can be solid or with gaps. Gates with gaps look more refined, but lose in providing security to whole structures. Therefore, most often such gates and wickets are used for fencing houses in which there is protection or there is no obvious danger. You can also choose a compromise solution - installation of a structure in which the lower part is made in a continuous form, and the top of the wicket has gaps.

Manufacture of wickets and gates

We have been producing gates and wickets since 2006. At our own production we create both inexpensive garden entrance groups and elite high-artistic models with the inclusion of forging elements. The most important constructive element   gates and gates - a supporting frame and supporting posts that must be stable and strong enough to prevent the doors from sagging under their own weight.

Posts can be made of various materials: wood, metal, brick. For the production of gates and wickets, we use only the highest quality materials, which ensures the durability of our products. The designers of the company "Russian Fence" always take into account the style, design and aesthetics of the fencing, in conjunction with which will be installed a gate or gate.

Mounting Features

We install gates and gates both in combination with the construction of the fence, and separately. The order of setting the input group depends on the type of construction. The gates can be swinging, lifting, sliding, rolling. In addition to individual installation features, there are also generally accepted stages of work. For example, pillars, on which the convenience of operation of the future entrance will depend.

Wickets, as a rule, have a swinging structure. The hinges are mounted on the support post, the door is hung on them. There is also such an option as a gate, integrated into the gate. When installing the wings, a minor gap is left between the base and the solid. This allows our gates and wickets to function properly with minor deflections of the support. Particular attention is paid to the foundation.

The company "Moscow Fences" provides installation services for swinging gates in Moscow and Moscow region. The final price of works is calculated at the most favorable tariffs in the region.

Wickets of the modern type perform several basic functions: arrangement of a convenient passage to the territory of the site or courtyard and decoration of the exterior. These structures should be strong and reliable and at the same time neat. Gates for fence can be made of corrugated board, mesh, steel sheet   and profiled pipes (fence). Each material has its advantages and disadvantages, therefore it is better to entrust the manufacture and installation of the product to professionals.

Wickets, the skeleton of which is made of proftruby 40x20x2, poles 80h80h3. If necessary, we will make the upper and lower ties. The hinges are 25x120 mm.

Accessories and varieties of mounting swing gates

By the type of installation design, you can select the following options: opening in the courtyard or on the street side, invoices, built-in. Swinging wickets are standard enough:

  • base of construction - skeleton. As a rule, there are a frame, angular and connecting profiles, a glazing bead;
  • frame with filler material. As the main cloth of the wicket for the fence from the corrugated board there can be profiles made of aluminum, panels, mesh and the profiled flooring itself;
  • accessories for the installation of swinging structures - hinges, stops, supporting poles for wickets, etc.

Great demand in country houses and in cottages use fences and wickets from a profiled sheet. They are cheaper and longevous.

Wicket for fence of corrugated board: what should be the dimensions?

Obligatory requirements in terms of overall dimensions of gates from profiled sheet does not exist, but when choosing it is worth following the following recommendations:

  • the width of the wicket for the fence from the corrugated board should not be more than 1 meter. The opening of such a width makes it easy to carry any large luggage, furniture. At large values, the loops are subject to rapid wear, which leads to a distortion of the web;
  • the height should be no more than 2 meters. If the fence around the site has a large height, then above the wicket, you can install the crossbeams from the profile.

Of course, a wicket for a fence of profiled sheeting is more than 2 meters is needed if the house is inhabited by very tall people - from 190 cm tall and taller. In this case, you need to install a fairly powerful loop.

Work examples:












It is difficult to imagine homestead   without a fence. are an integral compositional accent, affecting the overall picture of the manor. Each functional element - pens, loops, mailbox, lamp, address indicator - is subject to a certain style decision of the fence. To make a gate is not very difficult, if you know how.


Determine the material and place

The most common materials for making wickets are wood or metal profiles.

In favor of the first option testify to such factors:

  • availability;
  • simplicity of manufacturing and repair;
  • ecological compatibility;
  • universality;
  • aesthetics.

The downside of this type of structure is short-lived and the need for constant maintenance. If you decide to make a gate, treat boards and bars with special solutions.

Wickets from profiled sheet also have a long list of advantages:

  • strength;
  • reliability;
  • convenience and ease of installation;
  • universality;
  • absence of additional care;
  • availability.

Low visibility of the fence of profiled sheeting can be attributed to both positive and negative factors. Establish a gate in the frontal part of the fence, in a place close to the entrance to the house.

Kinds of wickets for a fence differ on a material of manufacturing and on a way of opening:

  • swinging;
  • sliding.

The second option is more difficult to install.

Set up columns

The size of the wicket in the fence is determined by the desire of the client. This takes into account the degree of its visibility. If the gate is deaf, you can cut the eye. Wide wicket is inconvenient to operate. The standard width in the fence for the gate is 90-100 cm. The wooden canvas is perfectly combined with any columns. When installing them, consider a number of factors.

  1. You can make the pillars of wood. They need to be treated with antiseptic and waterproofing solutions. That the tree is less exposed to the action of moisture in the earth, it is processed by working off. It is also advisable to apply a waterproofing film. She is put in a pit.
  2. Posts from asbestos-cement should be installed in the ground below the freezing level. In any case, the depth can not be less than 1 m. The width of the fovea in diameter is larger than the pole by 10 cm. For brick pillars   The depth of the foundation can not be less than 1m.
  3. Pillars are installed and covered with rubble. It is important to observe the perpendicularity of the installation.   and wait for drying. Posts should be in the cement for at least a week.
  4. If we have wooden fence   with, and poles are made of brick or concrete, it is necessary to attach wooden bars. Loops are fastened to them and the feigned element will rest against it.


Setting the column

Manufacture and installation of a wooden gate

The construction of the wooden gate frame is made of:

  • metal profiled pipes;
  • wooden beams.

The process takes place in several stages.

  1. For the manufacture of a wooden frame, a 40 centimeter beam is suitable. The shape can be made rectangular or resembling the letter Z. Horizontal grooves are made with grooves 50 to 100 mm. Then, deepenings are carried out in vertical bars. When applying the bar to the pole, the fastening points of the hinges must coincide. Next, knock down pre-treated. To do this, the bars are laid out on a level clean surface, in the same plane. Wooden crossbars are connected by means of metal plates. Fastening is made by screws. To strengthen the skeleton of the future product, it is complemented by corners.
  2. For the prepared design longitudinal or transversely overlap dostochki. Their height and shape depends on the size and shape of the wicket. Mounting is also done with self-tapping screws. Now several times paint or varnish the product. Each new layer is applied to the previously dried one.
  3. The next step in the work is loop fastening. Hinges for the wicket should be reliable to cope with the weight and additional load, such as strong wind. Buy powerful decorated loops. They can also pick up a pen, maintaining one style . When hanging it is impossible to forget about the technical clearance from the bottom of the wicket. It should be at least 10 cm. This will prevent snow from settling in winter.
  4. Wickets for the fence are equipped with a mortise or an overhead lock, locked from the inside and outside. It is mounted on the vertical part of the frame. To do this, determine the exact location of the installation, mark it on the bar. Make a groove, apply the lock and fix the place of the fastenings. It is important to correctly mark and drill the point of the cavity for the larva of the lock in a pole or bar. There it is necessary to install a fixing plate. Mark and make a hole for the connecting rod in the gate. Having finished with holes, put and fix the lock. Check his work.

As you can see, it's not difficult to make a gate in a fence of wood with your own hands.


Manufacture and installation of wicket from profiled sheeting

The metal gate for the fence is also made simply. The described column setup process is also suitable for this option. With the difference that for such a gate the wooden posts are the least suitable. The optimal width of the wicket in the fence, made, is also 1 m. If the height of the planned product exceeds 2 m, it will be necessary to strengthen the frame.

  • For the manufacture of a frame base take a profiled pipe with a cross section of 0.6 to 3 cm. But it is better to use a pipe with a diameter of at least 0.4 cm. This will greatly simplify the subsequent installation of the mortise lock. Thoroughly think through the dimensions and measure out the necessary details. The cutting is done at an angle of 45 degrees. In this case, the weld seam will be less noticeable. The corners of the frame can be strengthened with triangular overlays. Before welding, all dimensions are carefully checked once more. In order to make the gate itself, it should be taken into account that the welding is carried out using a special circuit. It consists of a sheet of thick plywood and clamps, with which metal elements will be pressed during welding. This will not allow the metal to deform. Remove the clamps after complete cooling of the joints. Then they are cleaned.
  • In order for the product not to be removed from the hinges after installation for the purpose of illegal penetration, the hinges are installed by a method towards each other. They are welded with seams of 1-2 cm. The distance from the top and bottom edge of the wicket to the loops is 20-30 cm. If you want to make the gate in the fence correctly, do not forget about it.
  • If the pipe size for the frame is 0.4 by 4 cm, the narrow-profile mortise lock is the best fit. Next, note the place of the slot for the body of the lock, the cavity for the core and the attachment of the handle. Bulgarian cut lines along the long side of the castle. On the short sides make holes. Make it to the exact size with a file. Cavities for the core are made with burr. Screw holes are made. Install the lock.
  • Frame is installed vertically in the opening, fixing wooden block   at the bottom. On the column accurately and accurately determine the location of the second half of the loops. The height from the bottom edge of the product to the floor is not less than 10 cm. The hinges are "tipped" with a temporary seam, hung out the door and check the correctness of the fastening. If the wicket in the fence functions normally, superimposed capital seams, which are carefully cleaned. After this, the structure is painted at least 2 times. To establish a post on the post for bolts, it is smeared with chalk and the lock is closed. In the marked place the receiving unit is installed.
  • The last stage is the installation of a profile sheet. It is fixed by screws for the roof horizontally through the wave, and vertically into the transverse beams. It is desirable to cover the edges with decorative slats. The handle is installed, and the lining for the lock.

Probable installation errors

After the wicket for the fence is installed, you should once again make sure of the correctness of the work done. There are a number of frequently recurring errors.

  1. Measurements and calculations are made incorrectly.
  2. The gate closes badly and opens, which indicates the absence of a strict vertical of the established poles.
  3. Columns are poorly cemented, or the time of hardening of cement to the end is not sustained. In this case, the structure will quickly loosen.
  4. Technological clearances are not sustained. The product is too close to the posts, or large slots remain.
  5. Perpendicularity of frame fastening is broken. The skew of the structure is obvious.
  6. Poorly seamed seams. The product looks sloppy.
  7. The frame of the wicket with non-standard dimensions is not reinforced. This will lead to a rapid failure of the structure.
  8. The lock is not correctly installed, which makes it difficult to work.

If you have done everything thoughtfully and correctly, the gate will last for many years, without additional physical and material infusions.
