Ponteland gate post supply — drives, doubles, garden gates
Gate post is what most Ponteland fencers reach for first. Gate posts are heavier than fence posts — most drive gates need 6"×6" (150×150mm) timber a minimum of 8ft long, so the post can go a metre into concrete with another 5ft above ground. Garden side-return gates can use a 4×4 if the gate is light. We deliver across Ponteland and Darras Hall and the wider Northumberland footprint — Next-day.
Whether you're laying a single back-garden run on a Darras Hall or Milbourne property or quoting a multi-house developer plot, the timber's the same: pressure-treated softwood, sized properly, dropped where you need it.

What Ponteland looks like for fencing
Darras Hall plots are some of the biggest residential plots in the North East — 30m+ boundary runs are common, and the spec expectation is high. Painted finishes need cure time so lead times stretch a bit. Outlying villages are flatter and more standard.
Neighbourhoods we drop to: Darras Hall, Milbourne, Medburn, Berwick Hill, Black Heddon, Stamfordham, Belsay, Eachwick, Higham Dykes. Plus surrounding postcodes (NE20) — drop your postcode at checkout if you're unsure.
