Configuration Guide
Height
Here are our three simple steps to help you measure the height for your new gates:
- Measure the total height from the floor to the top of the gate post.
- Minus 30mm for the clearance gap below the gates. This is to allow the gates to open freely and not catch.
- Finally, these measurements will leave you with a total height for your gates.
Example:
Total Measured Space = 1200mm
Minus Clearance Gap: 1200mm – 30mm = 1170mm
Total Height to Order = 1170mm
We will manufacture your gate to the exact height measurement you order, without deducting any tolerances or gaps. Therefore, it’s important you take these off in your own measurements.
Width
Here are our four simple steps to help you measure the width for your new gates:
Measure the total space you have for everything to fit into, including the new gates, posts, and a clearance gap.
Minus the widths of any posts you require.
- Minus your clearance gap, which will be 10mm each side plus an extra 10mm between the gates, totalling 30mm. This is so that the gates will not catch and can open smoothly.
- If you are using a traditional hinge, please minus an additional 110mm clearance gap from either side, which will total 220mm.
- Finally, these measurements will leave you with a total width for your gates.
For double gates, the total measurement of the space where the gate will be is indicative of both gate leafs, and you will receive two gates that total the measurement you provide. For example, if you insert 3000mm width into the configuration (a final measurement you have taken, which accounts for expansion gaps), you will receive two 1500mm wide gate leafs.
When taking the width measurement, make sure you are measuring from the front view.
Example:
Total Measured Space = 3000mm
Minus Posts: 3000mm – 290mm (2 x posts at 145mm each) = 2710mm
Minus Clearance Gap: 2710mm – 30mm = 2680mm
Minus Traditional Hinge (if using): 2680mm – 220mm (2 x 110mm) = 2460mm
Total Width to Order = 2460mm
We will manufacture your gate to the exact width measurement you order, without deducting any tolerances or gaps. Therefore, it’s important you take these off in your own measurements.

The best height and width for a wooden gate depends on its intended use.
Standard single pedestrian and garden gates should be around 900mm wide to allow for clear access. This includes measurements to allow for expansion gaps and posts. The maximum width for a single gate we can manufacture at Wortley Brothers is 3000mm. Common heights range from three to six feet.
