    Apologies if this is something that is asked and answered on a regular basis, but google returned about 8 billion results.

    Can anyone tell me how I would go about getting a gate for my garden? I have no concept at all of how that would be done. Can I buy on off the shelf from garden centres? Or do I need to get a carpenter in? I'm no diyer, but I guess with the right materials and a saw, I could bash one together, but again, where would I go for advice and materials.

    You don't say where you are based but you could try Leinster Timber Products in Newbridge.

    It would be fairly simple to put together a stadard side entrance gate if that is what you are looking for using some 4" or 5" T&G on 2x2 battons but if you are looking for something with a fancy finish or something that is going to be heavy you might be better off trying to get one made or buy one off the shelf as you suggest.
