Garden arch to go over garden gate in brick wall

I'd love to grow roses on an arch over my garden gate, but my garden walls are brick and are as tall as the gate. Has anyone seen an arch that will fit on top of a brick wall to go over the gate? Everything I've seen so far is about 2 metres tall and designed to go straight into the ground rather than to fit on top of an existing wall. Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure why you want this. I'd go for the usual arch, placed in front of the gate to create a mini-tunnel leading up to it. You'd get more flowers that way.

But arches (cheap ones) usually come in segments. Couldn't you just select the bit you wanted, attach it to the brick wall and discard (or repurpose) the rest?

You could try your local ironmongery and fabrication place. Not as cheap, bit it would fit perfectly, and by firmly fixed.

A friend made a lovely arch with a hula hoop. Or just use the top of this

Try Agriframes, I'm sure they have arches to put on a wall.
