A Budgie silhouette, 180mm wide and 220mm high, cut from 5mm mild steel plate. The design is a pair of budgies perched on one branch, facing each other, with long tails hanging down. Weld it between the bars of a gate or railing by its edges, or screw it to a wall, fence or post. It suits bird lovers and garden birdwatchers. 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 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 Budgie on the gate says something about who lives there, and it is a popular choice for bird lovers and garden birdwatchers.

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 220mm 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
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.
