      Ah no problem Tom. We got there in the end, the most important thing was the quality of the product - they were perfect! Totally fitting for the property.

    Great match on the brick. Looked great!! Was wondering if there was a was to offer a choice in videos...music vs no music. Id rather hear what you're thinking or the trowel raking the brick or nothing as opposed to the techno dance music....Just my opinion.

    • @Brockstonepavingpros
      @Brockstonepavingpros  Рік тому +2

      Thanks John. Appreciate the feedback. I probably use less music now than than this video as it was a year ago. But saying that rarely has anyone said they want less or no music so I’ll have to go with the majority. Cheers

    Looks very nice. A bit curious why you started the brickwork as low as you did instead of bringing the concrete up a few more courses...

    • @Brockstonepavingpros
      @Brockstonepavingpros  2 роки тому

      More in the ground gives more stability. The gates are very heavy 👍

  • @keithwebb658

    Haven't finished watching this one yet but it struck me that you didn't copy the bond on the house.
    Flemish bond , I think.
    Enjoying the video as usual though.😊
    Ok nice job as usual,Matty.
    You should really have got some proper lifting gear!
    Your health and safety comes first!
    I realise it was just a day's work getting them on - a genie lift is around £150-£200 for a week.

    • @Brockstonepavingpros
      @Brockstonepavingpros  9 місяців тому

      Really?? I’m not a bricklayer but I don’t think I’ve ever seen Flemish bond on a free standing pillar?
      There are pillars at the front of the property and they’re built the same bond (stretcher) as we’ve done. So I don’t agree there I’m afraid.
      As for the pillars caps, not a days work mate, did it after work one day, 2 hours work, no issues.
      Thanks 😊

    I want to do my own gate setup, why do you require the steel pillar in the center if you make a brick pillar? Wouldn't the bricks be strong enough? Love the videos btw

    • @Brockstonepavingpros
      @Brockstonepavingpros  Рік тому +1

      I wouldn’t like to chance it with the size of those gates. They’d just snap off at the bottom

      Thanks for the support mate. On the music I’m not sure tbh, it’s a royalty free channel i subscribe to in order to be able to use their music, im not sure what the song is, just a random one I picked. Maybe Shazam it?
