LatticeStix' Lattice Gates employ hand-crafted joinery, modern design, and the traditional art of lattice to create a stunning and durable gate. Gates are available in three styles that frame the lattice and allow degrees of openness to control privacy, light, and security.
- Basic Lattice Gates (GFL) are a full lattice sheet framed for an open entranceway.
- Lattice-top Gates (GLT) have a solid body with a strip of decorative lattice across the top.
- Vertical Window Gates (GVW) creates a vertical view window that frames the lattice panel side-to-side.
Pattern - H125 or LA Block belongs to the Chinois Collection, a collection of timeless Chinese motifs.
Dimensions - Gates come in a choice of three standard widths(36", 42", 48"), and four standard heights(36", 48", 60", 72"). Call for custom sizes and pricing.
Optional Hardware - Optional all-brass butt hinges are available. Standard finish is oiled bronze (black). Each hinge is pre-mortised into the gate, and we provide a template for routing or chisel mortising the jam. Call for options on latch or locksets.
Craftsmanship - LatticeStix' gates are built with all wood joinery that assures a long, trouble-free life.
- Lattice joints are 1/2 laps with a blind dowel and water proof glue.
- Lattice panels are secured to the frame with mortise and tenon joints.
- Frame joints are mortise and tenon secured with a decorative hardware dowel.
- Solid panels are floating, allowing expansion and contraction with moisture and temperature.
- Stiles are a full 5" wide and 1 3/4" deep for extra strength and durability.
Materials - We use only the highest grade woods.
- Western Red Cedar (WRC) - Clear, vertical grain western red cedar is a light, strong, and rot resistant soft wood. Cedar has a wonderful patina, with colors ranging from light orange to chocolate. We source all of our cedar from sustainably harvested forests in British Columbia.
- Sapele - A tropical hardwood similar to African Mahogany has excellent rot-resistance, and is suitable for high usage areas where a denser species is desired. Call for pricing.
Finish - To protect our employees, neighbors, and the environment, we use only solvent free and low or no VOC finishes.
- Natural (N) - Natural WRC panels can be left unfinished for natural graying (exterior), or site-applied finish.
- Penetrating Old Growth Oil (OGO) - We use a zero VOC green product (Penefin Verde (TM) ) that creates a rich oiled wood option for interior or exterior. For exterior installations, maintain every 2-4 years by washing and applying Penefin (available in our accessories page) or equivalent exterior oil.
- Semi-solid Stains (SS) - A choice of two shades of gray(Gray-GY, Charcoal-BK) are available in our factory applied semi-solid exterior stains. Our process allows a hint of natural wood grain and color to show through. Maintain exterior installations every 2-5 years with application of a clear coat.
- Primer (WPR)- We use a heavy duty urethane primer that is suitable for most top coats including acrylic, lacquer, varnishes and enamels.
