James Gates is now offering a
replacement wood gate at a very attractive
price. For about half of an original James Gate you can now
have a replacement for your "tired" old gate, (probably the one
that came with your home) and has seen better days. This new
product can be installed in less than a day and I guarantee this
product is many times better than anything you may have
seen offered at the price.
James Gate Works
offers you original wood entry gates for your entry or side yard
access. Choose from a gallery of available designs or show me
what you have in mind and I will bring your ideas to life in my
local shop. If you're looking for "Tuscany, primitive,
Mexico, Craftsman or a patina'd beach" atmosphere, share your
thoughts and we can provide you with something so unique you'll be
proud to add this work to your home. Look through my "Recent
Wood Gate Projects" to see if you can find something you would like
duplicated. If you have other ideas of what you would like,
please let me know and we can put toether something that will be
sure to please you. I work primarily in Mahogany. I
have used other woods, cedar and redwood were among my
favorites. With the closing of many American forests to
harvesting, the abundance of native, old-growth lumber, with its
characteristic resistance to rot, decay, and bug infestation became
scarce and mostly non-existant. Lumber yards had to look
elsewhere for their products and the quality of lumber took a real
hit. No longer were the woods I knew and loved easily
available but their quality was terrible. They looked bad and
performed worse. I had to look elsewhere and found a wood I
could enjoy working with and one that would retain the desireable
characteristics of woods I had loved. The mahogany I use is
very high quality. It is clear, dry, has good grain
definition and finishes well. But the most important find of
this wood was it's resistance to rot, decay and bug
infestation. It holds up extremely well. When I finish
the wood with a stain or natural wood tinting and follow that with
two coats of Teak/tung oil it becomes almost
indestructible.
If
you
are considering doing a home
improvement, you will be interested to know that the
