Bring Purpose & Privacy to Your Garden with Timber Gates

In Irish homes, outdoor space is becoming more valuable than ever. Whether it’s a garden, patio, or side entrance, timber gates are the ideal way to define and protect these spaces with natural charm.


At Grogan Timber Products, we specialise in designing wooden gates that do more than secure—they enhance. From garden privacy to pet-safe side gates, every timber gate is built for your lifestyle.



Why Timber Gates Are Perfect for Garden Spaces


  • Natural Beauty: Unlike steel or PVC, wooden gates blend seamlessly with hedges, fences, and green surroundings.

  • Flexible Sizing: Whether you have a narrow laneway or a wide garden path, timber gates can be custom-sized to suit.

  • Privacy + Ventilation: Choose solid panels for total privacy, or slatted gates for airflow without compromising security.

  • Safety for Kids & Pets: Block access to driveways or roads while keeping gardens open and enjoyable.


Popular Garden Gate Styles in 2025


1. Cottage-Style Arched Gates


A charming option with curved tops, perfect for garden walkways or front entrances.


2. Slatted Timber Side Gates


Ideal for air circulation and modern designs—keep things visually open without sacrificing security.


3. Double Leaf Garden Gates


For wider spaces or mini-driveways, these wooden driveway gates create a statement while offering full closure.


4. Gate + Planter Combos


Match your wooden gate with raised timber beds or trellis panels for a cohesive garden aesthetic.

Don’t Let Poor Fencing Ruin a Beautiful Garden
