            FAQs Garden Gates in Nelspruit

            Can you install a garden gate on an existing wall or fence?

            Yes. We can attach to most walls, fences, or posts — or help you design a full enclosure if needed

            Are your gates rust-proof?

            Yes. We offer intercoms, keypads, and magnetic lock compatibility

            With proper care, expect 10–15+ years of durability and function
