THE GATE
3742 SE Ocean Blvd., Stuart

Walk into The Gate in Harbour Bay Plaza
with a photo of a room you’re trying
to accessorize and, with the help of
talented staff members, you will walk
out with a plan that makes you look like an interior
decorator. The Gate’s skilled professionals love helping
customers discover exactly what they want and how
to achieve it. Their excellent customer service is known
and valued all over the area. “We give personal service,”
says owner Chris Rodgers, in business for 37 years.
“When a customer comes in and describes what she’s
looking for, for example an accent pillow, we match
that up with something we have.” The sales staff can
help a customer find accent pieces for a wall unit, or
make a flower arrangement in the store’s container
or the customer’s vase. The Gate does a lot of coastalstyle
decorating, including candle arrangements
with shells or even with garlands, stones and other
materials. If the customer brings in a photo of what
they want or of the area where something will go, the
staff does its best to find something that matches.
“It’s a fun atmosphere and we have a good time here,”
Rodgers says. “We even let people pick something out
and take it home and try it out for a while.” WHAT R E A D E R S S AY
