“Squeaky Gates” is a sound design sample pack featuring a range of wood and metal gate creaks recorded with a shotgun and contact microphone.

The “Squeaky Gates” sound effects library contains a vast collection of wood and metal gate creak, groan, open & close, spring, mechanism and latch sounds. They were captured using both a shotgun microphone for authentic gate sounds, and a contact microphone giving the opportunity for sonic manipulation. Recorded in 96kHz the deep metallic groans lend themselves to cinematic editing.

This sample pack provides audio professionals, sound designers, film editors, and game developers with a versatile set of resources to enhance their projects. The carefully recorded creaks and groans of gates can add an authentic and realistic touch of gates and latches, the medieval sound of old doors and mechanisms or deep cinematic groans – the range of possibilities is considerable.
