Description
A Khanda silhouette, 180mm wide and 225mm high, cut from 5mm mild steel plate. The design is the Khanda: a double-edged sword in the centre, a ring around it and two curved swords crossing below. Weld it between the bars of a gate or railing by its edges, or screw it to a wall, fence or post. It suits Sikh homes, gurdwaras and community buildings. The design is symmetrical, so it reads the same from both sides of a gate. 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 free-standing outline. There is no frame around it, so it can sit between two bars, stand on a rail or post top, or hang on a wall.
A personal touch. A Khanda on the gate says something about who lives there, and it is a popular choice for Sikh homes, gurdwaras and community buildings.
Where it is used
- Garden, side and driveway gates
- Railings, balconies and fence panels
- Sheds, stables, summer houses and garden walls
- Gifts and blacksmith projects
Will it fit my gate?
| Your layout | What works |
|---|---|
| Between two gate bars | A clear gap of at least 180mm, welded where the outline touches the bars |
| In a band between two rails | Rails at least 225mm apart, the silhouette standing on the lower rail |
| On a wall, fence or shed | Drill two or three 6mm holes through solid parts and use exterior screws |
| Seen from both sides | The emblem is symmetrical and the plate is flat, so it reads correctly from the street and from inside |
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.
Does it look right from both sides?
Yes. The Khanda is symmetrical and the plate is flat, so the outline is the same from either side of the gate.
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.
