Wooden it be nice Devon

The arch top gate frame that I made and fitted this week. Not an easy one this. But it fits just right. Made from our own Douglas fir for its great exterior performance.

Three solid gates made and installed this week.

These aren’t high end show pieces. But every job gets the same care and attention here at wooden it be nice.

I won’t cut corners even when working to a budget. Good materials matter. Proper construction. Built to last and finished with galvanised hardware.

All three customers are over the moon with the results. 👍

If you’re thinking about new gates or any other timber projects this year, feel free to get in touch for a chat.

WIBN Advent 🎄 This lil’ (big) beauty is going off to its new home in Belgium soon. The customer wants it to complement their new kitchen renovation. We’re sad to see this one go, it’s definitely one of our favourites! A board like this is around £260. 🎅

We removed our gas fire place this year as we never used it and it made space for our media wall in the front room. But come December that left us with a dilemma. Where do we hang the stockings for Santa to fill with pressies!? I made this mantel from ash then stained it to look like oak. Which I can do for £80. Or if you’d prefer an oak mantel I could supply one for £100. Waxed and finished with or without dowel depending on how you aim to fit them. Fitting could also be arranged at an extra cost. Merry Christmas 🎄 🎅
