Nothing wrong with what you did. Love that you did half lap joints with glue. I don't think you needed to use 4x4s. Same thing could have been done with 2x4s. If built right, you also don't need the wheels. Hinge hardware is great, but maybe too much for five foot gates. (Not ten foot...) I tend to overbuild things, but this is overbuild even for me. Thanks for the good video.

@stevelopez372 Год назад

Yes quite the Build, he even used Thors Hammer to knock in the Bolts. Lol.

@kaylecarlile6708 2 года назад

Damn good video. A lot of help. Especially centering the hardware and joining the 4x4 frames

@mbbyb7868 3 года назад

This video helped a tremendous amount! Thank you

@jameshaydel8262 Год назад

Just one word. Simpson strong ties. Like the hinge hanger system and how it can be adjusted for plumb. Nice job. Thanks for the video!

@joestamm5163 Год назад

That's 3 words. 😂

National Hardware, looks well made.

@noquartercraftsman9007 2 года назад

Nice job brother.

@darwinawardcommittee 3 года назад

You should ad some flat “L” brackets in the corners. And some flat “T” brackets in the intersections. I did that on a outside door I built ten years ago and it’s still really solid

@LIBERTY0RDEATH Год назад

Definitely solid hardware! That gate isn’t going anywhere

@joseguadarrama255 Год назад

dig this build, with there was a way to hide the ends, the less they see into my back yard the better.

@jask320 2 года назад

Nice job

@cousin_JACK Год назад

thanks for recommending this hardware since I first saw your videos months ago I have since bought 6 of the 24” straps to build a 16’ gate and wanted to ask if the lag bolts/ carriage bolts you used for the straps, how long are those 3/6 bolts. Did you use 8” or 6inch”

@thomaswooderson320 Год назад

Hey bro I'm not trying to be picky I'm just trying to give you information that's actually called a carriage bolt not a lag bolt that you're using on the hinges. But good video keep up the good work.

@peacefromraineydaze5289 2 года назад

Love the video I’m gonna do the same thing however I can’t seem to find the hardware , can you tell me what the website is, or can you go on Amazon couldn’t figure it out on national hardware? Ty

@TheAbear360 Год назад

what could you do to keep the the gates lined up in the middle, i noticed yours is about an inch or so out of line on the top and bottom?

@bmills9821 4 месяца назад

will these gates swing both ways using the hardware you used?

@eugene66626 5 месяцев назад

Why Tightbond and not a construction adhesive ie pl300 or liquid nails?

@HandyTim Год назад

You can use 2x4's to build a gate that won't sag.

@mikem5831 Год назад

After two years, how is it holding up against the wind and gravity?

@TeaCNation 2 года назад

i just saw the support of the post wasnt good enough, maybe consiered rge same size of 4xx4. maybe use a bolt too. so everything is heavy duty...

@aldenrichie 2 года назад

@some guy with tools How did you address covering up the hinges? I've got these hinges ready for a dual 5ft gate that needs to open out like yours does and I'm just racking my brain trying to figure out how to hang the pickets and everything look seamless 🤔🤔. Thanks in advance

@mbiehle80 Год назад

Did you come up with a remedy for this problem? One of my concerns with this is having too big of a gap between the gate and the set fence.

@mikem5831 Год назад

Watching this. Id route them a slot in the frame.

@cousin_JACK Год назад

great video and thanks for adding links, that hardware looks beefy enough but how come you decided to invert the top bolts, seems like they would help bear the weight but being inverted they don’t do much aside from letting it swing. I don’t mean to bash since it’s operational just curious. Thanks

@heatheresteubing-fisher9729 Год назад

Inverting the the top hinge prevents thieves from being able to remove the gate off the hinges to steal big items.

@mckenziekeith7434 Год назад

They aren't needed to bear the weight. Just prevent the gate from tilting. The outward tilting force at the top hinge is much larger than the weight of the gate.

@santinho212 2 года назад

Good build nothing wrong apart from using making massively heavy 4x4's .Two factors that contributes to sagging 1weight 2 poor bracing but you got supporting wheels on it I should be OK. Well done still

@vincentmckinney582 Год назад

Where can I get that hardware?

@mitchgrant7385 3 года назад

Looks good. 4x4’s. That’s a lot of weight. How’s it hanging? And why is the top hinge post inverted?

@DdDten 3 года назад

I’ve seen other gate Hardware installed to where the the top is inverted. I’d assume that way it doesn’t ever slip off.

@wernerfoerster3666 3 года назад

so an intruder cant just lift it off

@bmills9821 4 месяца назад

it is inverted so some one ie thief can’t just lift the gate off and walk in the yard.

@WoodFenceExpert 2 года назад

Gate casters? OMG. 4x width framing is the way for sure.

@garyhawkins8720 Год назад

If it “won’t sag” what are the casters for? How will you deal with the gaps and depth issues?

@curtcmiller Год назад

I am looking for hinges with ball bearings, do they make them?

@RedBeard20842 2 месяца назад

Most gates really don't need bearings they just unnecessarily complicate things. But if you want you can drop a set of thrust bearings on the pintle using the same set of hardware he used here. However I would recommend using an oilless thrust bushing, flowed by a smooth washer on top. Buy it the same size as your gate pentle. Like 5/8 in this example. It will cost $10 or less and you still get to use these awsome hinges

@chillwill5080 2 года назад

Can't criticize anyone willing to work and do it themselves. I would suggest that next time you replace it, get a metal livestock gate and attach the wood fence pickets to it. I used them with vinyl fence panels and it's fantastic, no sagging.

@regulargeye2009 Год назад

Hey chill will, how do you connect wood fence pickets to a metal livestock gate? Thanks.

@billlee1724 11 месяцев назад

Self tappers and washers when doing vinyl, I second this. Definitely pre drill the vinyl

@chillwill5080 11 месяцев назад

@@billlee1724 I drilled through the top and bottom fence panels and gate pipes and used stainless bolts and nuts through them to attach. I love my gates.

@roccomacri_stratocaster Год назад

Did you cement your posts and how deep were they?

@davemcdave2169 Год назад

4.05 can see the frame sagging already. Should have pulled the top and bottom horizontal frames half lap joints into the vertical frame, so each hoeizontal frame is gripped top and bottom. Much tighter, stronger join with minor sagging over a long lifespan.

@alanknight1597 11 месяцев назад

Hi Dave. It sounds like you've seen something important here, but I just can't quite get it. Could you try to explain it a little differently? Thanks!

@Cjz_backup 3 года назад

That’s not 10’ wide?

@kCI251 2 года назад

4x4s are overkill for a gate that size. If it won't sag, why would need the wheel?

@anonymousperson4363 2 года назад

I see no inks to the hardware.

@dannyprice7087 2 года назад

It don’t make a lot of sense to use a heavy 4x4 frame if you’re going to put casters on it. You could have just put the casters on the existing 2x4 frame!

@jeromegarcia5396 2 года назад

a thousand pound gate for no reason at all, like lowering a 4x4 drive 🤷

@thomaswooderson320 Год назад

Well if you got free hardware to use as a demonstration why not use the extra support.

@LIBERTY0RDEATH Год назад

Right what’s the point of showing how much weight the hardware can hold if your putting casters on it. If the hardware is that strong which it sure looks like it is, why use Casters?

@randymarshall1267 2 года назад

Carriage bolts , not lags

@e.j.2578 2 года назад

Good vid, but the audio sucks.

@wilsonmaingrette715 Год назад

That 4x4 is over kill.. plus the problem wasn't that u used 2x4 for the first build the problem was that u didn't lock the end properly.. using L brackets on a gate in hopes of bracing it is a guaranty fail

@mckenziekeith7434 Год назад

The first gate could have been fixed up by running a steel wire between the two L brackets. Tighten the wire with a turnbuckle or by twisting until the gate is level.

@johnc4642 Год назад

The original gate was not built right from the beginning

@walleyeye 3 года назад

You could have accomplished the same thing with the existing 2x4” frame lumber and it would have solved your problem for good. Just because you used heavier lumber doesnt mean it wont sag. In fact the heavier lumber may end up making it sag, even with the cross brace. I hope it works out for you but with todays price of lumber you could have done the same thing with the existing framing and added a cross brace and viola.

@SomeGuywithTools 3 года назад

You’re probably right, but the reason I opted to go with 4x4s is because the previous frame had started to twist from the wind loads hitting it. One side leaned forward, the other backward because of the winds that push on it. So I wanted to try and prevent that from happening as well
