COMPOSITE BI-FOLD GATES
The Beauty of Composite
Eco-friendly composite bi-fold gate combining a deep metal frame with the latest composite board to create a gate that “really makes an entrance”. Constructed from 95% recycled materials and fully recyclable making it an extremely environmentally friendly gate.
Why We Use Steel Frames Instead of Aluminium
Our composite gates are built with steel frames to ensure long-term strength and durability. We deliberately avoid using aluminium for structural components, as aluminium frames tend to fail over time—especially at the hinges, where repeated movement and stress cause the material to weaken.
In real-world use, aluminium gates often begin to fail within 12 months, as the hinge points loosen or deform under load. By contrast, our steel frames maintain rigidity and alignment, ensuring smooth operation and a significantly longer lifespan.
Ultra Shield Technology
Composite that is built differently. With UltraShield, a wipe-clean is all you need to keep your boards looking as good as the day you bought them. With it’s unique UltraShield formula fully capped around every board, there is no worrying about the traditional fading, staining, or mildew issues that often face timber gates. UltraShield is simply the best solution for minimal maintenance and maximum visual impact. Boasting a market leading 10 year colour warranty.
Included with the Gate:
Choice of composite: Anthracite Grey, Ebony (black), Walnut, Teak, Light Grey (stone) and Antique.

INFORMATION
How to Measure
Measuring for your new gate is actually a very simple process.
If existing posts/ pillars are in place, take three horizontal measurements. Top, middle and bottom as shown below.
Make a note of the SMALLEST width.
** If you are replacing the posts, take a measurement of the whole opening width and reduce size by the width of the posts. For example: Opening width of 3m 460mm minus 2x posts (at 100mm wide each) = 3m 260mm.
Please note: If purchasing metal posts with your gate, hinge pins will be welded to the post. If not, we supply hinge pin plates for you to fix to existing posts/ pillars.
Next, decide how the gate will hang and reduce width accordingly. The is by far the most popular option.
Option 1: Gate hanging on the rear of posts/ pillars. Main advantage of this set up is the reduced gap that is visible between the gate edge and post.
For a 3 leaf gate reduce 60mm (2 1/4″) from your lowest measurement.
For a 4 leaf gate reduce 70mm (approx. 2 4/5″) from your lowest measurement.
For a 5 leaf gate reduce 80mm (approx. 3 1/4″) from your lowest measurement.
Please note: Figure 1 shows the centre leaf opening to the left. This could also open to the right by fitting the hinge to the right leaf.
Option 2: Gates could open towards driveway. Hinge plates mounted to inner face of post/ pillar. Front edge of gate sits flush with the front edge of post/ pillar.
To calculate gate width:
For a 3 leaf gate reduce 160mm (6 2/5″) from your lowest measurement.
For a 4 leaf gate reduce 170mm (approx. 6 3/4″) from your lowest measurement.
For a 5 leaf gate reduce 180mm (approx. 7 1/4″) from your lowest measurement.
If ordering online and exact measurement not offered. Reduce to closest size. Want it exact? No problem, call our team to order – 0800 6124 965.
