    Just received a quote of €300 for a side entrance gate for my new house. I'm thinkin this is waaay too much. Was guesstimating around €200.

    Anyone know where I can get some more quotes from?

    No ideas myself. My suggestion is, if you found a house with nice gates - ask the owner where they got them from and try them. :)

    Depends on what type i.e. timber/metal and size of gate you got - but €300 euro sounds good value - did that included the fitting of it as well?

    I got mine a few years back from Deise Metal. Think it cost about €150. It's a good solid gate and they were sound to deal with.

    B & Q have a small range of such gates which would probably be cheaper than having them made if you are happy with their styles. Possibly other DIY places have them too.

    Cheers everyone.
