Badger Gate
I’ve been meaning to make a new gate for our house for sometime. So it’s to match in with the wibbly cedar fence that I made a couple of years ago. And seeing as our house is called Badger House, I thought that it should have a Badger in it.
English oak curvy entrance gate
Just finished this evening, an English oak curvy entrance gate. Made from locally sourced air dried English oak, made in our workshops and hung in the rain. All structural joints are draw pegged mortice and tenon, brass screws and bespoke gate furniture made by the Dorset Forge.
Oak Driveway Gates
Here’s a recently completed pair of oak driveway gates made for a client that we met at the Stock Gaylard Oak Fair back in the summer. They feature curved rails and braces with asymmetric opening.
The gates are made from air dried oak to minimise movement as the timbers acclimatise and weather. All structural joints are mortice and tennon with oak draw dowels. The hinges and latches were forged at the Dorset Forge specifically to fit the curve of the rails. The gates have a sanded finish and have been treated to an undercoat and two top coats of OSMO UV Protection Oil.
Curved slat pedestrian oak gate, design accepted
Just had this design for an oak gate accepted by the client, which is nice. Will be made in air dried oak in the coming weeks. That’ll be us busy for pretty much the rest of the year.

Oak Driveway Gates
This design for Oak Driveway Gates has just been accepted by the client, we’re rather excited about making these we is..! Going to be made in seasoned oak over the coming weeks.
The client is keen to direct visitors up the left side of the drive hence the asymmetric design. The curved top rail, centre rail and bracings add to the balance in the asymmetry and should be fun to make!
