Highlander Double Gates – Australian Hardwood & Cypress

A Grand Entrance with Rural Character

The Highlander Double Gate creates a commanding entrance for properties where the gateway deserves genuine presence. Its generous height and sweeping outer edges create a distinctive silhouette, while the substantial timber construction gives the gate a strong, grounded character. Rather than relying on ornate detailing, the Highlander creates impact through scale, proportion and craftsmanship. As a result, it works particularly well at the end of a long driveway, across an expansive frontage or wherever the entrance needs greater presence.

The Sweeping Highlander Profile

The Highlander’s most recognisable feature is its sweeping outer edge, which rises gracefully towards the centre of the gate. This curved profile softens the substantial timber frame and gives the gate a natural sense of movement. At the same time, the additional height creates a more imposing entrance than a conventional rural gate. Consequently, the Highlander brings a sense of grandeur without becoming overly formal. Whether you are creating an established country estate or a contemporary acreage property, its generous proportions make a strong first impression.

Designed for the Entrance

We designed the Highlander to work as part of the wider property, rather than simply closing an opening. Instead, its generous proportions draw the eye towards the entrance, while the curved profile creates a natural focal point from the driveway. When paired with Saltram Rural post and rail fencing, the gate flows naturally into the surrounding boundary. Together, the gate and fence create a cohesive transition from the road through to the property itself.

Choose Your Timber

We craft the Highlander from your choice of Australian Hardwood or Queensland White Cypress. Australian Hardwood provides rich colour, density and substantial natural character. Alternatively, Queensland White Cypress brings warm tones, distinctive grain and the relaxed character of Australian rural timber. Either way, both options create a strong connection between the gate, fencing and surrounding landscape.

Handcrafted for Strength

We build every Saltram Rural timber gate with long-term performance in mind. We glue and bolt each joint, using galvanised fixings to create a strong and durable frame. Importantly, this construction gives the Highlander the strength required for a substantial entrance while allowing the natural timber character to remain visible.

Quality Hardware

We fit the Highlander with heavy-duty adjustable hinges and quality latching hardware for reliable everyday operation. The adjustable hinges allow you to realign the gate over time if the supporting posts settle or move.

Designed to Make an Entrance

The Highlander takes a different approach to the traditional rural gate.

Instead of adding unnecessary decoration, it creates impact through generous height, sweeping curves and substantial Australian timber.
