Stellar Gates

Made-to-measure wooden gates crafted in Warrington

Stellar Gates is a British manufacturer specialising in made-to-measure wooden gates. The company produces every piece in its own Cheshire workshop, without outsourcing any stage of the process, and sells its products online with delivery throughout mainland UK. Its catalogue is aimed at both private homeowners and professionals in gate automation and landscaping.

Gate types and applications

The range is organised around three main uses: garden gates, side gates and driveway gates. Within each category, a distinction is made between hardwood and softwood, and sliding variants and 3/4 split opening models are included. The company also manufactures garage doors in both types of wood and fence panels.

Timbers and manufacturing method

Hardwood gates are made from Iroko, a species prized for its durability and striking grain. Softwood gates use sustainably sourced Scandinavian redwood, which maintains its appearance with regular care. Both types share the same construction system: a 70 mm thick mortice and tenon frame, glued and doweled. The company emphasises that every gate is unique, as no two pieces of wood are alike, and that the entire process, from design to delivery, remains under its control.

Ironmongery, treatments and accessories

Alongside its gates, Stellar Gates supplies ironmongery such as hinges, locks, bolts, latches and complete kits. It also offers wood treatment products, including Treatex external oil and wood preservative, as well as gate posts, tongue and groove boards and garden accessories. The catalogue includes a range of colours supplied in tins for a fully protective finish.

Advice and buying process

The website provides customers with guides to choose the right timber, calculate gate dimensions to the nearest 25 mm and select the appropriate posts. The company handles both online orders and visits to its workshop and showroom, where the team advises on the most suitable timber type, shapes and colours for each home. Once the specifications are defined, the workshop craftsmen build the gate to the requested measurements.

Delivery and customer profile

Delivery is free and available throughout mainland UK via a courier service. The lead time stated on the website is six weeks. In addition to private customers, the company supplies gate automation specialists and landscapers who need gates for their projects.

Workshop, showroom and professional membership

The business is based in a workshop and showroom located in Risley, on the outskirts of Warrington (Cheshire). The company presents itself as a member of the Guild of Master Craftsmen, which supports the qualifications of its craftsmen.
