I am after suggestions for driveway gates on a shared entrance to define the boundary .
Slope is 7 degrees. Maybe two gates for cars or one for cars and one for pedestrians?
Wooden I guess as a fencing is added to either end of the gates for the boundary.
In the pic between the edge of the house on the LHS and the green bin on the right. The other drive goes down the RHS of the hedge.
Any suggestions welcome.

I think one wide gate for cars and a narrow gate for pedestrians would be most convenient, though presumably you'd have to add a post between the two.
 
I'd ask the person you share the drive with. I'm sure whatever we suggest will not suit them. I'm my experience shared drives/access cause numerous neighbour problems.
 
Thanks for all your advice.
Particularly valid is the neighbour considerations.
