I know what you mean, I've already got a pair of 12' gates at the entrance, but 1 has to stay open all day for postman / deliveries etc. This means unwanted guests can branch off into the yard and drive around the buildings. I find ' pairs ' are a pain to erect and match up. I'd rather a single 16 ', I think.
Just shoot the next 1 and tie it up in the trees(y)word will soon get around

IAE will make what you want but you will not see them till Feb in all probability. Their real heavy cattle yard spec are not too bad at all but would prob' be wrong side £150 each.
16ft gate is not very handy if most of your traffic is van/truck/tractor TBH. I have a pair of 3.5m and seldom need to open second one.

we bought a 10' and a 4' for our front gates, they only ever both get opened with 18 tonners come up or the hay guy with his tractor and trailer. we have smaller needs but the principle is the same
