Heavy steel, a signature cross brace and a solid backing panel — a front gate that earns its place at the path.
Set across the solid lower panel sits the signature Winslow move — a single, honest 75 × 25 RHS cross brace, welded corner to corner. It's not ornament. It's the language of barn doors, stable gates and the working entrances of properties built to last more than one generation. Carried here in heavy galvanised steel, set into the kind of leaf you actually have to lift to swing. A welcome that announces itself in one diagonal line.
Behind the cross, a full steel backing sheet — not slats, not gaps, not a peek through to the front lawn. Real privacy. A real edge between the path and the home. Above the rail, the upper section opens up with vertical uprights to let air and light in. Closed where it should be closed. Open where it should be open. The way a serious front gate has always been drawn.
Welded at every joint in our Tamworth workshop from premium Australian steel — 75 × 75 RHS gate sides, hefty 75 × 50 RHS top, mid and bottom rails, 75 × 25 RHS cross brace, solid steel backing panel. Finished with our Four-Stage Bonded Powder Coat. No bolts. No flat-pack. A statement gate, made the way a statement gate should be made — once, properly, by people who care that it'll still be standing when the trees behind it are full grown.
Most front gates apologise. The Winslow doesn't. Heavy 75 × 50 rails. A 75 × 25 cross brace welded across a solid steel panel. Gate sides you can rest a hand on and feel the metal answer back. It's the kind of leaf that closes with intent and stays exactly where you put it — wind, time, decades of daily use.
It's also a gate with a clear point of view about who it's for. The Hamptons-styled home that's taken years to get right. The heritage cottage thoughtfully extended. The architect-drawn rebuild. The character home finally finished. The Winslow is the gate for the front of the home you've spent years getting right — and the one your kids will know by sight before they know its name.
It costs more than the gate beside it. It also looks like it grew there. That trade is the entire point.
A timber farm gate fades. A pressed aluminium leaf rattles. Here's why the Winslow reads — and ages — completely differently.
| Winslow Steel Single Gate | Aluminium / Timber Gate | |
|---|---|---|
| Welcome under the hand | Heavy, substantial, honest steel — the leaf closes with intent. Reads as estate, not entry-level. | Hollow, light, tinny under the hand — feels like a kit, not an arrival. |
| Signature structural detail | 75 × 25 cross brace welded across a solid steel backing panel — barn-door honesty, estate-grade execution. | Flat, generic panels — no language, no point of view, nothing for the property to recognise. |
| Privacy at the path | Solid lower panel — a real boundary, not a peek-through. Open above the rail for air and light. | Either all open (no privacy) or all closed (heavy and unwelcoming) — no middle ground. |
| Closes cleanly for decades | Welded steel leaf, precision-engineered — stays square, latch lines up, gate closes true. | Timber drops; lighter gates sag, rattle and lose their alignment with the post. |
| Ages the right way | Heavy welded steel holds its line through wind, sun and twenty Australian summers — looks better as the property grows in around it. | Timber greys off and warps; aluminium fades and chalks; both look worse the longer the property has been there. |
| Finish & colour | Four-Stage Bonded Powder Coat in 26 premium colours — holds colour and lustre for decades. | Standard powder coat or paint — chalks, fades and chips with time. |
| Construction | Welded at every joint in our Australian workshop. No bolts. No kits. No flat-pack. | Typically bolted, riveted or pressed together — failure points show themselves over time. |
| Origin | 100% Australian made in Tamworth, NSW — designed, welded and finished under one roof. | Most are mass-imported and built to a generic spec. |
| Lifespan | Designed to outlive the home it stands in front of. Backed by our 10-Year Structural Warranty. | A replacement cycle, not a lifetime purchase. |
The Winslow single gate is also matched by Winslow fence panels and a Winslow double gate — same heavy proportions, same signature cross-brace language, same finish — so the boundary, the side entrance and the front path of the property all read as one designed home, not a collection of gates picked from different catalogues.
The Winslow is a substantial leaf — heavier than any other single gate in the range. For a clean swing and a latch that lines up properly, we recommend a minimum 100 × 100 mm heavy-duty steel post and matched heavy-duty hinges. We supply the full range to suit.
Speak to our team before you order. We'll walk you through opening width, hinge side, latch hardware and post selection — so the Winslow hangs straight, swings clean and closes true from day one.
Every Winslow single gate is welded — never a flat-pack kit — finished in your choice of 26 premium powder-coat colours and delivered ready to hang. Backed by our 10-Year structural warranty. Speak to our team before you order — sizing, posts, heavy-duty hardware, automation if you need it.
