Custom redwood gates

Double gates made of redwood. Designed, created and installed by Shapira Builders, including stain and finish.

Redwood has a natural resin that will resist, bacteria, fungus and bugs, meaning, it won’t rot for 30 years. Cedar wood has the same property.

For finish, I used, oil based penetrating stain, turpentine (made from pine sap) Boiled linseed oil (flax seed oil) and wax.
