    Highly Recommended for Garage doors & Gates

    Posted 15 August

    I would highly recommend Wooden Gate Makers. We wanted a custom design Garage doors and sent drawings to Claire, who confirmed it could be done. I visited the workshop in Poole and was shown around seeing doors & gates being made. The team also came to my house and measured up. Once the doors were ready the team fitted them. I have to say there and were very diligent removing the old doors / fitting new ones. A very professional set up. The Garage doors look fantastic. Great communication throughout the process. Thanks Ian

    New wooden driveway gates

    Posted 26 June

    This is an excellent company which I have used before. They have high standards and always try to ensure their work meets their exacting standards. They go out of their way to ensure the finished product meets the customer’s requirement. My new gates are beautiful. Unfortunately, On this occasion, there was a delay in the manufacture of the gates due to unforeseen illness within the team and outside their control but I have no hesitation in recommending them

    These gates are beautiful and have been constructed to the highest specification. The attention to detail is perfect and they have been attracting compliments already. The fitting went without any problems despite the torrential rain was completed efficiently and everything left clean and tidy. Thank you to Henry.
