Choosing a Gate Style for Your Fence

Gate styles should match the fencing on your Hillsdale property. The gate will be made of the same material, color, and design as your fence to provide a cohesive and attractive appearance to the entire property. If you are installing both the gate and the fence, then you have the chance to design an attractive gate that will complement your home and property. Let’s take a closer look at how to choose a gate style for your fence.

  • Find a gate style that matches or complements your fence design. If you have a white vinyl fence, then your gate style should be of the same height, color, and design.
  • Consider adjusting the look of your entire fence to match your new gate. For example, most wooden fencing can be repainted or stained to match the color of a new gate. Ensure the gate is the same height and cut as the rest of the wooden fence.
  • If you have a standard metal fence, then your gate can have more intricate designs. If you wish to add more color, then install wooden slats between the metal bars.
