Explore our range of garden arches for creating attractive entrances, decorative walkways and structured features within outdoor spaces. Garden arches can be positioned over paths, gateways and transitions between different areas of the garden, helping add height, character and a clear focal point.
Timber garden arches work well in both traditional and contemporary landscapes. They can be installed as standalone features or incorporated alongside fencing, trellis, gates and planted borders to create a coordinated garden design.
An arch can also provide support for suitable climbing plants, allowing roses, clematis and other climbers to grow around the frame over time. This helps create a natural entrance while adding seasonal colour and interest to the garden.
Our range may include pressure-treated timber arches in selected designs and finishes. Pressure treatment helps improve resistance to rot, fungal decay and general outdoor weathering, making treated arches suitable for long-term exterior use.

Choosing the Right Garden Arch
Measure the pathway, gateway or opening carefully before selecting an arch. Allow sufficient internal width and height for comfortable access, particularly where the arch will be used over a frequently used garden path.
Consider the style and scale of the surrounding garden. A larger arch can create a strong focal point, while a simpler design may be more suitable for smaller gardens and narrow pathways.
Where climbing plants will be added, consider their mature size, growth habit and weight. Larger or vigorous plants may require a more substantial arch and regular pruning.
Installation and Care
Install the arch on a stable base with both sides vertical, level and securely fixed. Depending on the design, the posts may be set into the ground using suitable post mix or secured with compatible post supports.
Check for underground pipes, cables and drainage before digging. Do not train heavy plants over the arch until the structure is fully secure.
Where pressure-treated timber is cut or drilled, apply a suitable end-grain treatment to exposed areas. Inspect the fixings periodically and trim climbing plants where necessary to prevent excessive weight from building up.
