Walking in the countryside is increasingly in popularity, so all the more reason for ensuring public rights of way are well maintained. Jacksons range of
stiles and
kissing gates, in both wood and metal are manufactured from top quality guaranteed materials that will stand the test of time.
Jakcured pressure treated timber is common throughout the whole range, all
guaranteed for 25 years against rot and insect attack. Making sturdy stiles that won’t fail as ramblers clamber over. The
Stile with Dog Gate is an innovative design that removes the need for wrestling with muddy dogs in an attempt to help them over.
Another innovative design is the
Mobility Kissing Gate. Traditionally Kissing gates have been installed in areas populated by elderly people who may have difficulties using a stile. The Mobility Kissing Gate has a larger than normal transit bay that allows access for wheelchair users.
The
Combination Gate has all of the features of the metal kissing gate with the added advantage that it is hinged to a 3.0m single leaf padlockable gate. This allows the kissing gate to be used normally, however when vehicular access is required, the larger gate can be opened. All Jackson’s metal range are made from hot dipped galvanized steel, with a
25 year Service life guarantee.
Some rights of way products these days can be more about discouraging unwanted users, and maintaining safety for those who are welcome. Most problems come from bikes, motorbikes and vehicles gaining access where only ramblers and horseriders should be. The
Horse Access-Vehicle Barrier, the Motor Bike Inhibitor and the Bike Restriction Barrier are all designed to eliminate these problems.
There is also a need for demarcation devices in other settings away from the countryside. Diamond Rail, Silver Rail and Chain & Post fencing all “indicate” that access is discouraged, rather than creating a sizeable barrier.
Jacksons wooden Bollards are available in a variety of shapes and sizes. Their type varies according to their uses - from simple light weight timber bollards for demarcation purposes, separating pedestrians from traffic or for protecting vulnerable points like corners of buildings that could be accidentally hit by vehicles.
