    Anyone know of where to get wooden entrance gates for a house manufactured in county galway. I have seen some very nice solid type wooden gates in front of houses in various parts of the country. hoping to find someone making them in Co. Galway.

    I know a very good fella that custom makes gates. He is in Westport though. Might be a bit far from you.

    Standish is below in Leap near Birr in Offaly. Might be near enough depending on where in Galway you are.
    The lads above are right though about softwood gates!

    From experience, I'd imagine your gates longevity is more down to your treatment with fence life than their treatment

    Yeah but if you want something to last you should look after it
