Tarter, building gates since 1945
Tarter began with a gate in 1945 and still builds its range around them, from the heavy-duty Bullmax series to Watchman, its gate for light confinement. Today Tarter also makes panels, feeders and livestock handling equipment, is ISO certified, and sells through a network of authorized dealers. Fenceweb is one of them.
The Watchman wire mesh gate
Watchman is Tarter's series for small herds, horses and smaller animals. Each gate has a 1-3/4" round steel tube frame, stands 50" tall and is filled with welded wire, so hooves stay out of harm's way and smaller stock cannot push between the rails.
Choosing a size
Tarter lists a gate by the opening it fits. The gate itself is about 3" shorter, to leave room for the hinges and a clean swing. Measure between your posts and order that size: 3' for a walk-through, 4' for a garden or paddock entrance, 6' where a mower or garden tractor has to pass.
Painted or galvanized
Painted gates in Green, Blue, Gray and Black have 2" x 4" 8-gauge wire fill and a corrosion-resistant finish. The galvanized gate, in 4' and 6', has graduated wire spacing, tighter toward the bottom, and a welded chain latch. It is the better choice in salty, coastal regions.
Ready to hang, backed by Tarter
Every Watchman gate ships with two 6" screw-in hinge pins and a snap chain, and its top and bottom hinges adjust for a left- or right-hand swing. Each gate carries a 1-year Tarter warranty, and Fenceweb ships them across the United States.
Frequently asked questions
What is Tarter known for?
Farm and ranch equipment from Dunnville, Kentucky, starting with gates in 1945. Today Tarter builds gates, panels, feeders and livestock handling equipment, sold through authorized dealers such as Fenceweb.
Which Tarter gates does Fenceweb carry?

Which Tarter gate suits small livestock?
The Watchman wire mesh gate. Its wire fill keeps sheep, goats and foals from pushing between the rails. For cattle and crowded pens, Tarter's heavier tube gates are the better fit.
Why is my Tarter gate shorter than its listed size?
On purpose. A Tarter 1-3/4" tube gate is about 3" shorter than listed, so a 4' gate is roughly 45" long and fits a 4' opening with room for the hinges.
