Penchard gates are a timeless classic. Whether the leaves are falling, the sun is shining, or there’s snow at your feet, the aesthetics of your entrance will always look perfect with a Penchard gate. We’ve covered some seasonal styling tips to help
Timber and Metal gates: stunning all year round
Whether you select our bespoke hand forged metal gates or handcrafted timber, your Penchard gate will not only last but also elevate the look of your property all year round. For an entrance that is dramatic but elegant, both metal and timber look perfect.


Spring and Summer styling
When you’ve got a Penchard gate your kerb appeal is already enhanced, but you can add to this elegant aesthetic by keeping seasonal planters near your door as well as hanging baskets to welcome spring.
Dried flower arrangements can also complement the look of classic timber.
Autumn and winter wreaths
Seasonal lighting can elevate the look of your entrance especially when you have a dramatic timber or metal gate at the front of your home. As autumn approaches, wreaths and outdoor lighting can really complement your Penchard gates. Don’t be tempted to decorate the gates with any lights or foliage directly, as this can be a safety risk for your gate. Instead, add to the backdrop behind your gate by decorating around the front door with a seasonal wreath and using outdoor lighting in the front garden.
