Read MoreDo you need wooden gates supplied and installed in Stockport? At GB Joinery, we manufacture made-to-measure timber gates from our factory in Hazel Grove, serving building contractors across Stockport, Cheshire and Greater Manchester. Our standard lead time is 4 to 6 weeks, and every gate in our range is manufactured to your exact specification.
Our gate range: what we manufacture
We offer driveway gates, pedestrian gates and side access gates in both softwood and hardwood. Every gate is manufactured in-house, meaning we control quality at every stage.
Common timber species we use:
| Timber | Best use | Key benefit |
| Accoya | Driveway and exposed gates | Exceptional stability; resists swelling and shrinkage |
| Iroko hardwood | Heavy-duty commercial gates | High density; low maintenance |
| Redwood pine | Side gates and budget builds | Cost-effective; takes paint and stain well |

Site considerations for contractors
Before ordering, account for these on-site factors:
- Ground conditions – soft or uneven ground requires deeper post setting; flag this at survey stage
- Opening width – measure twice; specify the clear opening, not the post-to-post gap
- Security requirements – we can supply gates with multi-point locking, meaning low risk of retrofit issues later
- Access for delivery – our workshop is based in Stockport, making local deliveries straightforward
Why use a local Stockport joinery manufacturer?
Working with a manufacturer based in Stockport rather than a national supplier offers real advantages for contractors:
- Shorter lead times with no long supply chain delays
- Bespoke sizing on every order, using your drawings or site measurements
- Direct communication with the workshop, not a call centre
We work exclusively with building contractors. If you also need timber doors or windows for the same project, we supply the full joinery package.
