Heavy-Duty Gate Castors for PVC Gates
A gate castor can help support some wider or heavier gate leaves by providing rolling support as the gate opens and closes. This can be especially useful on wider PVC garden gates, double-leaf gates or gate installations where reducing strain on the hinges is important.
Choose the castor size according to the gate size, ground surface and required clearance. The surface below the gate should be suitable for rolling movement, and the gate should still be correctly hung on suitable posts and hinges.
Available sizes
- 50mm Gate Castor – compact support for smaller compatible gates.
- 75mm Gate Castor – a practical mid-size option for many wider gate installations.
- 100mm Gate Castor – larger rolling support where extra clearance or support is required.
Compatibility guidance
A castor is an accessory, not a substitute for correctly specified posts, hinges and latches. For double-leaf gates, also consider a drop rod to hold the inactive leaf in position when the gate is closed.

How The Calculator Works
This tool automatically calculates the optimal number of panels and posts for your specific layout based on our 6ft (1.83m) and 8ft (2.44m) panel systems.
Panel Calculation:
The calculator subtracts any gate opening widths from your total fence run, then divides by the panel width to determine the number of panels required. Partial panels are rounded up to a full panel, which may need to be cut to size on-site.
Post Calculation:
Based on your layout, the tool calculates the exact number of End, Line, and Corner posts needed. Blank posts for gate openings are also included if required.
Post Types Explained:
- End Posts: Mark the start and finish of any continuous section of your fence.
- Line Posts: Connect panels in a straight run, placed between your End and Corner posts.
- Corner Posts: Create a 90-degree turn in your fence line.
- Blank Posts: A stand-alone post when your gate is on either side of the fence run.
Please note: This calculator is a guide for standard installations. For complex layouts with multiple gates or unique angles, please contact our team for a free, personalised project review.
