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 themVerified reviewerJob location: BH2010 Wooden driveway gates.

A very high quality product. We moved to our house in Ferndown in February and soon realised that a gate was needed to secure the frontage of the house. After a search we opted for Wooden Gate Makers. The spec of timber we chose was hardwood (sapele) which is more expensive but looks amazing. An up front payment of £750 is required for WGM to work up a design and estimate. All of their gates are made to measure and as such the delivery time is longer than I expected at 2 months. However when they were ready the posts and doors were installed and fixed to the deadlines we agreed. Very happy!!Verified reviewerJob location: BH22
