Ornamental insert
The tree-shape insert in this wood gate allows peeks and breaks up the solidness of the gate.

Pure romance
Roses billow over a classic gate and arbor for a look that is pure romance. Note how the gate curves down, as a mirrior image of the arbor to create a full circle, which draws the eye inward.

Ageless combo
White pickets stand out brightly against moss-covered stones for a combination that is graceful and sturdy.

Enveloped in green
An old iron gate can barely be seen among the lush growth at this garden entrance.

Preserving vistas
Simple geometry keeps eyes where they should be—the long view—and reflects the neat rows and orderly growth.

Old-fashioned air
Classic form gets a finishing touch from a floral wreath. The message clearly states that an old-fashioned garden awaits.

Oriental touch
Caps on fence posts hint at the style of Japanese rooflines. Though tall, the thinness of the boards of the gate keep it from dominating the serene space.

Big, bold beauty
From the bright blue and red color scheme to the gold adornment in its center, this gate will wow everyone.

Notable lines
Curls and points on this rusty gate hint at a Victorian theme.

Solid nature
The arch top of the gate echoes the curving line of the wall, mitigating the solid nature of both these matierals.
Tags: -
Farm style
Wide boards and basic structure make for a practical country look.
Tags: -
Mix and match
There is a lot going on in this design: ironwork on top of a beam with trimmed ends, white posts holding lantern-style lights, vine-covered stone pillars, and a solid wood three-quarter height gate. But it just goes to show that complicated can be tasteful.

Trim works
Elaborate trim attached to a wood fence calls to mind European styling. Castle or church doors perhaps?
