Mesh Equine Gates - FAQ
Here at Peak Road we always get asked the difference between the equine gates we supply... so here it is in a nutshell.
Heavy Duty Mesh Equine Gate
These in comparison to the Welded Mesh Gates are made of 42mm x 2.3mm pipe (10mm thicker than the Welded Mesh Gates), the mesh is 50mm x 50mm x 5mm (1mm thicker than the Welded Mesh Gates) and these have welded hinges.
Meaning overall they are slightly more heavy duty and if you are hanging these in a brand new gateways they are super easily to hung as you will be install gate gudgeons as you go.
However if you are wanting to hang these in existing gateways you may need to remove and move any exiting gate gudgeons to make sure they align with the welded hinges.
They do certainly look the part once hung!
Sizes: 8foot/ 2.44m 10foot/ 3.05m, 12foot/ 3.66m, 14foot/ 4.27m
Heights: 1.05m, 1.25m, 1.5m
Sizes vary depending on your chosen style.
Welded Mesh Equine Gate
The hinges of these Welded Mesh Gates are loose (not welded) meaning they are easier to hung and adjust in exisiting gateways that already have secured/ existing gate gudgeons.
This means you can move the hinges to suit the exisiting gateway. Perfect for those properties that are already fully fenced but we are wanting horse safe gates.
They also have the rounded edges at the top sides.
