Plan the openings with the fence
Think about how you use each entrance and what needs to fit through it. Include each opening in your enquiry, with an approximate width and photos of the surrounding fence. Planning the gates alongside the fence helps keep the appearance and the whole job consistent.
Materials and finish
Describe the finish you want and whether the gate should match a new or existing fence. A photo can help explain the colour and style. The installer can work through the dimensions, hardware and supports as part of your quote.
Replacing an existing gate
Show the entrance from both sides and identify the gate, posts or fence sections that need replacing. Mention any paving, walls or changes in ground level near the opening. Include removal of the old gate in the scope where needed.
What affects the quote
Opening dimensions, materials, hardware, posts, footings and access all affect the cost. Quoting the gate with the fence helps account for the complete job. Ask for a written scope that names the inclusions and total price.

All fencing FAQs What changes the price of a fence?
Length and height are the starting point. Removal, slope, footing requirements, access and gates can change the total. Ask for a written quote that lists these separately.
Can a fence include a gate?
Yes. Gates can be included in your fencing project. Tell us how many openings you need and their approximate widths.
Can the fence be attached to a retaining wall?
The fence and wall need to be considered together. Tell the installer about any existing wall and ask who will assess the support and connections.
Will I receive a written quote?
Ask the responding installer for a written scope, total price, exclusions and payment terms before agreeing to the work. An enquiry is not a booking or a construction contract.
Can I replace a gate with my fence?
Yes. Include the existing gate and opening in your enquiry so the replacement can be included in your quote.
