Gate 5 This cross-buck style seems to be a favorite.  It's simple but classic lines lend itself to most any landscaping design . It is imperative that your gates be sealed. This should be done either before the gates are installed, or within 10 days of delivery. JCG cannot be responsible for gates that have been left unfinished and exposed to the weather, which can cause dimensional changes that may affect the integrity of the gate. JCG does not provide finishing.  It is recommend all painted gates receive a top quality acrylic latex stain blocker primer prior to top coats or if it is to be stained, at least one coat of a quality weatherproofing stain, or if preferred, clear preservative to prevent discoloration.                                                  Hardware is not included.
