Make a good first impression with a Featured Front Gate

Sometimes the exterior front entrance is the only part of your home that some will see, so if you want to make a good first impression of your home then make sure you have a stunning entrance and one with a Featured Front Gate. Front Gates can come in all sizes and styles and if you really want your Front Gate to be a real feature, then you want to have it in a contrasting colour or material to the rest of your home. Your entrance and Front Gate set the feel for your home, so if you have an ultra-modern home then you’ll want to make sure your Featured Front Gate is also ultra-modern as well.

Choosing a contrasting paint colour can make your Front Gate a real feature especially if you are only painting the Gate in this colour. Or if colour isn’t your thing, then opt for having your Front Gate in a featured contrasting material such as metal or timber. And don’t be afraid to go large with your Front Gate. Bigger proportions are more striking and really make a real statement with huge impact.

If you choose timber for your Front Gate, you want to make sure you seal it with some protective coating to protect it from the weather. Choosing a stain with some pigment will help the coating last longer as the UV rays has to break through the pigment/tint first before it destroys the coating so this will always last that bit longer than an exterior clear. We have many products available for timber and it depends on the look you are wanting and how often you want to recoat/maintain your timber. Painting timber with paint will always last longer and will involve less maintenance however it just means you will hide the grain of the timber. If you are unsure which coating is the best for your Front Gate and the look you are trying to achieve, send us an email to [email protected] or give us a call on 0450 602 891 and we will be able to assist.
