English Five Bar Gate Plans

Five Bar Gate - 'Keel'

Five Bar Gate - 'Keel'

For centuries, gates of similar style and design have been scattered throughout the European countryside next to Irish thatched roofs and English stone walls. Such gates have been equally popular within other countries in the European Union, particularly Germany, France, and Denmark. In the US, our Five Bar gates are equally at home in the New England states as out west. These beautifully crafted wood gates are ideal for gated entrances, residential walkways, and for use in an agricultural setting.
