Heavy-Duty Gate Castors for PVC Gates

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.
