    If u were putting in a electric gate which wud b3 best steel gate or UPVC gate.
    I think UPVC gate looks better and more modern. But I heard bad stories about wind breaks up gate and hinges are broken allot with UPVC gate. Wind flows through a steel gate better. Steel gate doesnt break as easy, that's what someone told me. UPVC gates , has anyone had experience of these type of gates. And also price is there difference. Which wud be the dearest which wud be the cheapest.

    I have had heard allot of bad stories about wooden gates in terms of maintenance. So any info on UPVC gate would be welcome.

    Wouldnt put a second thought to it.

    UPVC would be cheaper I'd say, But by no means the same quality!

    Cant beat box iron for strength and quality, and definitely galvanize it.
