Why Choose a 4ft Wide Garden Gate for Your Outdoor Space?

A 4ft wide garden gate serves as both a functional entryway and a design statement. According to 2023 market research, 68% of homeowners prioritize gate width matching their property’s scale, with 4ft (1.22m) emerging as the standard for single-person access. This dimension balances accessibility with structural integrity, particularly when paired with a 4ft height for privacy. Compared to narrower 3ft alternatives, 4ft models reduce accidental collisions by 41% (Home Improvement Safety Council, 2022) while maintaining cost efficiency.
