There is a wide variety of wooden gates that one can choose from. The features and construction of gates varies as per the purpose they are designed for. The variants that interested parties can choose from include framed single gates, field gates, driveway gates, double gates and sliding gates, among others. The garden gates one comes across are designed to be short in height so that they offer visibility on the inside and outside for ensuring security. The field gates on the other hand are used in farms and usually feature hanging stiles, closing stiles, rails, etc. The wooden gates designed for garages are quite broad. The sliding gates are ideal for economising space needs.

The various styles in which gates are available include flat top, arch top, swan neck and picket, among others. People can also choose the type of wood and finishing as per their liking. Certain manufacturers place importance on craftsmanship which plays an important role while choosing a gate for a garden or inside a home.
