Wellington Pedestrian Gates
A good pedestrian gate is used every day and rarely thought about — until it sags, sticks, or swings shut on the kids. We build durable, self-latching garden and entry gates that match your fence and simply work, year after year.
Pedestrian Gate Services in Wellington
A dropped, dragging, or badly latching gate is a daily annoyance and a genuine safety gap — especially if it's meant to keep children in or a dog off the street. Most problems come down to undersized posts, poor hinges, or a gate that was never built to hang square. Our pedestrian gates Wellington service fixes that from the ground up, delivering gates that open cleanly, latch reliably, and hold their shape through years of use.
We make gates to suit your fence and your entry, in timber, aluminium, and steel, with the hardware to match. Our fencing team gets the post depth, bracing, and hinge selection right so the gate hangs true, and we can add self-closing hinges, child-safe latches, and locks wherever they're needed. The result is an entry point that feels solid every single time you use it.

Convenient Access
A well-placed pedestrian gate makes it easy to move between your front yard, backyard, garden and neighbouring paths, without needing to open a large driveway gate. Good access makes everyday life easier, especially when carrying shopping or wheeling a bike.
Safe for Children and Pets
We install self-closing hinges and child-resistant latches where required, helping you keep children and pets safely contained while still allowing easy access for adults. Careful hardware choices reduce the risk of young children wandering out while pets stay safely in.
Solid Posts and Neat Alignment
Pedestrian gates see constant use, so we install strong posts with solid footings and align each gate carefully, ensuring it swings freely and latches properly every time. Careful alignment keeps your gate swinging smoothly and latching cleanly, avoiding constant sticking.
Matching Your Fence Style
Choose a gate that matches your existing fence in height, materials and finish, or select a feature gate that adds character and kerb appeal to your property. Matching details create a tidy, consistent look, while a feature gate adds character.
Wind-Resistant Hardware
Gusty Wellington weather can bang and loosen poor gates, so we use quality hinges, latches and stops that keep your gate closed, quiet and secure when the wind picks up. Good hardware keeps gates quiet and secure in southerly gusts.
Privacy and Security Options
We can add locks, keypads and solid panels for privacy, helping you secure side access, protect gardens and create a more private outdoor space for your family. These options make access safer and more private, protecting gardens, bins and tools.
