Bought Durapost Urban fence panels made by Birkdale. Installed per manufacturer guidelines. These have warped and discoloured within 18months. Thought these would last for years but already look old... See more

I purchased some Birkdale garden lights last October from a DIY store. They are great, but one developed a fault and stopped working in March, whilst still under warranty. The DIY store wasn't very... See more

I'm a Carpenter the last 38 years and there was always a huge hole in the market for a product like this for gates etc. The fact the drill bits and hex bits come in the box is fantastic, no searchi... See more

I was very pleased with my GateMate lock (supplied by Birkdale) on my wooden back gate. It seemed to work very well. However, I was rather horrified when one of the supplied keys inexplicably bent. No... See more

Fantastic service

We have held an account with Birkdale for a number of years and certainly the last five years I have personally been dealing with them they have been top notch. Their website is easy enough to operate and order through. The delivery comes next day (except current climate due to covid) but still comes within a couple of days which is great. And our contact in the office is absolutely fantastic, any queries are quickly sorted and a pleasure to speak to.

Gatelock problem

I had a problem with my Gatemaster lock which had been fitted by a local company installing my hardwood gate four years ago. The company that fitted the lock had closed down and I rang Birkdale Sales and spoke to Heidi. She responded very quickly and sent me a new replacement lock which I fitted myself. It works perfectly.
I suspect, but can't be sure that the original Gatemaster lock was not fitted correctly.
I was delighted and impressed at the speed in which Birkdale Sales responded.
Thank you Heidi

Excellent company to deal with.

I've used Birkdale to supply my business with fencing materials and gate furnishings for the past 5 years and the service, both range and quality of materials along with prices are all excellent. I'm sure I will continue to use Birkdale for many years to come.
