Prices for farm gatesDoes anyone know of an online place where I can get approximate prices for farm equipment from?
I'm after the price of a new 14 foot galvanised 5 bar farm gate with posts (nothing too specific then )
A decent list of farm equipemnt prices such as gates, wire, posts etc would be a great help.

Thanks Wombat, good site but no gate prices. I can't seem to find them anywhere.
Anyone know what sort of price a new metal 5 bar farm gate will cost? I need the prices for some plans...

Try your local agric merchant for a couple of recomended local manufacturers? I always thought these things were made to size?

Can you not get a quote off a (semi-) local blacksmith?

Agricultural merchants are a pretty good bet, here. I could ask my local one, next time I pop in, if you like?

Hi Treacodactyl,
I've just telephoned them:

6'6" Posts (Hanging) £29.41
6'6" Posts (Receiving) £29.43
50 metre roll sheep netting £26.60
All plus VAT.
All items are in stock.
Hope this is of some help, let me know if you need more prices.
Regards,

That's very kind of you Anna-marie, thanks. Seems very reasonable for a metal gate, I'll also ask at my local one as I need to get some more wood shavings tonight.
I want the price to negotiate a discount on something so the more exspensive the better.

Crikey - those gate prices are a little on the high side.
I've just bought four 12' seven-bar galv' field gates from CWG (Central Wool Growers - you'll find them on Google) and they cost me £48 each + VAT - with free delivery on orders over the value of £100.
It might be worth getting a quote from them too if you have time before it's needed.
Regards
Cris

Thanks for the posts. My local Scats had a large collection of gates, not seen them before. 12' 7 bar galvanised £59.04; 16' £80.66. Didn't check about VAT. Wooden 12' £68.27, 16' £92.58. Considering the price of some garden stuf I'd expected these to be more expensive.

I've just sold 3, 14yard 5 barred metal gates for £70 the lot. As we are moving over seas we just want everything gone so the bloke that auctioned our house bought them from us for cash. I know we could have got more but who cares, he was there on the day and they have been hanging for 6 years.

I paid £65.00 each for my 14' wooden field gates, (plus VAT, I think)
They were in stock from my local agri-merchant - free delivery on anything that won' t fit in the car.
Plus they will normally cut timber to size for me (free of charge)
