Before & After: PVC Gate Installation, Zomerlust Paarl
🚪 Before & After: PVC Gate Transformation on Zomerlust Landgoed in Paarl
The Original & Best Since 2009 - Another Masterpiece by Value Fencing® Paarl
✅ Project Overview
When the homeowner at No. 5 Zomerlust Landgoed in Paarl reached out to Value Fencing® Cape Winelands Franchise, their charming yet deteriorating wooden pedestrian gate was begging for an upgrade. The brief was clear: preserve the classic look, but eliminate ongoing maintenance. The solution? A custom-crafted, no-maintenance PVC pedestrian gate built to outperform wood in every way.
🔨 Before: A Faded Gate Losing Its Charm
The original wooden gate had served its time - but years of exposure to the sun, rain, and wear had taken their toll:
- Faded and peeling paint
- Structural damage and rot at the base
- Poor aesthetic impact on an otherwise pristine property
- Repetitive maintenance requirements (sanding, repainting, repairs)
This was a classic case of aesthetic fatigue and structural decline - one we encounter daily at Value Fencing Paarl.
🛠️ After: A Strikingly Clean, Durable PVC Upgrade
Our team of CNC-precision installers custom-designed and fitted a PVC pedestrian gate to match the original look but with modern engineering and zero maintenance. The result?
- Pristine white uPVC with a timeless vertical slat design
- Structural integrity guaranteed by steel-reinforced, concrete-filled posts
- Installed with GFRP NUBAR rebar rods drilled into the substructure
- ASTM F964-certified materials for UV resistance and long-term durability
- Seamless miter-welded corners for clean lines and strength
- Lifetime No Maintenance Guarantee & Limited Lifetime Warranty on PVC
🏡 Why PVC Was the Superior Choice
Unlike timber or steel, our ASTM-certified PVC material:
- Never peels, rusts, warps, or discolours
- Is lead-free, non-toxic, and environmentally friendly
- Offers unmatched UV resistance thanks to DuPont TiO₂ non-chalking grade
- Can be left white or painted with acrylic roof paint in any colour (no primer needed)
- Requires zero maintenance for life

💡 Expert Tip
If you're considering replacing your garden gate or upgrading your estate's perimeter with PVC pedestrian, driveway, or screening gates, remember this: Not all PVC is created equal. Ensure the product is ASTM F964 certified, and demand DuPont TiO₂ for UV protection.
