Thanks for taking the time to review us. It looks as thought your order was part-delivered, with the second part being delivered the following day - unfortunately this happens on occasion, where items are manufactured and dispatched from different warehouses. I do apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused. We hope to see you again at Barriers Direct in future.

I cannot rate this company highly enough. The gate i ordered arrived damaged obviously due to the courier. When i contacted customer services with a couple of photos they immediately sent a replacement gate. It arrived within a week and by a different courier. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👌
