Description
A Walking Horse Oval silhouette, 355mm wide and 435mm high, cut from 5mm mild steel plate. The design is a heavy horse walking with one foreleg raised and its head bowed, framed inside a plain oval ring. Weld the outer ring into a gate or railing where it touches the bars and rails, or screw it to a wall. It suits stables, riders and horse owners. The plate is flat, so you can turn it over to face the other way. It comes in raw steel, ready to weld, then paint, powder coat or galvanise. The price shown is for one silhouette.

Why this silhouette works
Solid 5mm plate. It is stiff enough to weld into a gate or screw to a wall without flexing, and the cut edges stay crisp.
Reads from a distance. A solid black outline shows clearly against the sky, a pale wall or a hedge, even from the road.
A ready-framed centrepiece. The oval ring frames the picture and gives you a continuous edge to weld to the gate bars and rails, so it sits square and looks finished.
A personal touch. A Walking Horse Oval on the gate says something about who lives there, and it is a popular choice for stables, riders and horse owners.

- Garden, side and driveway gates

Will it fit my gate?
| Your layout | What works |
|---|---|
| The centre of a gate | Rails at least 435mm apart, the bars cut short and welded to the ring |
| A railing panel | A bay at least 355mm wide, welded at the top, bottom and sides of the ring |
| On a wall, fence or shed | Drill four 6mm holes through the ring and use exterior screws |
| Facing the other way | Turn it over: the plate is flat and the outline is the same on both faces |
Fitting and finishing
Hold the silhouette in place and check it sits level and faces the way you want. Tack it at two or three points where it touches the frame, check again, then weld fully. For a wall or timber, drill 6mm holes through solid parts of the plate and fix with exterior screws and washers.
Raw steel will rust outdoors. Clean off the mill scale, prime with a zinc-rich primer, working it into the cut edges, and top coat with a metal paint, or have the finished work hot-dip galvanised or powder coated.

Frequently asked questions
Is the price for one silhouette?
Yes, the price is for one silhouette. For a matching pair of gates or larger quantities, call us for a price.
Can it face the other way?
Yes. It is cut from flat plate, so turn it over and it faces the other way with the same outline.
Do I have to weld it?
No. Welding suits steel gates and railings, but on timber, brick or a fence post you can drill 6mm holes and screw it in place.
Does it come painted?
No, it is raw steel so it welds cleanly. Paint, powder coat or galvanise it once it is fitted. Untreated, it will rust outdoors.
