STEP 3 Review your gate size and configuration
Single Gate
- for up to 10’ wide openings.
- intended for pedestrian and/or vehicular access routes.
STEP 4 Review the recommended hardware
Mounting with Double Straps with Central Eye Hardware Sets (8312-E)
- provides for heavy duty construction and maximum strength with easy adjustment.
- our best hardware combination for larger field gates, rail gates and entrance gates.
Latching with Spring Gate Latch – Behind Post Mount (8326)
- allows the gate to swing open a full 180 degree with a clear path (all hardware is out of the way).
- 24” tall.
- can be operated from horseback.
- when closed properly, livestock can push on the gate with no chance of it accidentally opening.
