Hello from another Arizonan... I was going to build a second one and my HOA stated only one RV gate per home..($%^&*(hoa) So, now I'm about to build two new gates in the backyard... I used the man made boards and they work great! no painting or treatments needed. Great job! & what a GREAT helper you had... lol
Well done! I was stoked when you said you were from Arizona. I was like omg that's where I am moving to in March! Reason why I watched your video is because the house i am buying has a RV gate that has a bottom hinge that detached on one side. I've worked with reattaching hinges on wood but never on cinder block. Just trying to figure out how old be doing this. But yeah man that gate looks sweet.
It really depends on how the block was built, if there's good concrete inside simply drill a new anchor, if it's just block I've used tapcon concrete screws. If you need help go over to my channel page and there's an email address, feel free to shoot me an email and I'd be happy to do my best to help.
Nice! I also live in Arizona and just built an rv gate but can't use it because my neighbor blocks it with his truck! Hope your neighbor aren't assholes like mine
Fellow arizonian. Just bought my first house and am looking to do some DIY projects similar to this. Probably will be bugging you in the future lol. Subscribed
Man i need your help I’m from arizona too here in Glendale. We need 1 single door and 1 double door. Our house have a wooden gate and it broken since we moved in. Wondering if you’re not busy and need some side hustle to get our gate done too 😅
A local company called "Preach Building Supply" in Buckeye AZ stocked them. They are Oldcastle brown, most hone depot stores can get them but they have to be ordered.
@Amanda Thanks so much for watching, I'm giving away $100 to a subscriber so please consider subscribing, I bought the hinges from Hardware source, here's the link to what I bought: www.hardwaresource.com/two-piece-welding-hinge.html They are weld in, but they have a ton of hinges of all shapes and sizes. Worth checking out for sure. I think with shipping 4 hinges was around $20.
I also just read that your question included metal. I bought the small stuff from metal supermarket Phoenix, and the outside frame from Arizona iron supply.
hey great job keep up the good work. what would you recommend for a newbie like me I have a small gate on one side and I have a wall on the other side of my house I would like to put an RV gate. I would like to use the current front gate door and move it over to the other side of the front of my house . The side with the small door I would like to put an RV style and use this small single door on the other side of the wall that doesn't have anything just wall brick. Don't know if you understand what I'm trying to do I hope you do. What type of tools would you recommend me. I do happen to have the basic tools in my house like a hammer drill, skill saw etc... I see you get the job done and do it by yourself keep up the good work and the great videos .
I think I understand what you're asking, as far as tools I've got a video that in the works (just need to edit it) that shows just the building of the gate in a bit more detail. (Definitely should subscribe to make sure you don't miss that video) but I use a 110 welder that's branded a Cornwell but I believe it's a rebranded Miller. I've just got a new band saw (also have a video coming on that) and a chop saw. Not a ton of tools required but some like the welder and band saw are kinda spendy. Harbor freight is a good option for low cost tools, some items are decent in terms of quality but the big consideration is how often you'll use the tool. For example if you're going to be using a welder ever day it's probably worth spending a bit more money and getting a nice one. If it's for one project get the cheapest one that will work. Check out some other videos on my channel I discuss tools in a few. If you have any other questions I'll do my best to answer them.
Bro question, I still holes to my blocks for the gate and the screws (Or whatever they're called) are lose to the stucco (Block) so my gate is a bit lose, how can I tighten them up or is there some type of glue for the bolts to get tight in the block holes? Door is a bit lose, works well but bothers me. 🙃😲
I would try a concrete epoxy, home depot or Amazon are probably your best sources. That's if it's a bolt style anchor like I used here, if it's a screw there's not much you can do but I've seen success jamming some copper wire in the hole then running the screw next to it, never tried it on a concrete hole but it might work.
I apologize for the damn grammar *loose lol..Okay yes, I used or should I say my father and I used the bolt styles you did, not screws. I'll go ahead and get that epoxy, it's been recommended from some of my co workers, thanks for getting back to me quickly!!!
Looks very good. Question after bolting the flame to the block wall what kind of mechanism or latches is used to open and close the gate? And how was it mounted ? Thank you
I welded a piece of round tube (3/4") to the bottom of one gate then cut a piece of rebar I salvaged from the section of wall I took out, and slid it through the tube, then drilled a hole into the concrete foundation from the original block wall so now one gate has a pin that slides into a hole in the ground ro hold it closed, then I welded a standard gate latch to the tops if the gates so the other gate locks to the pinned gate.
Usually you would drill the holes. Put the hinges in the block wall then fill the block with cement. In the video the cements filled and so he drills holes in it but then what? Skipped the process of how the hinge would hold that gate
I used 3/8 bolt style concrete anchors to anchor 2×2×1/4 angle iron to the block then welded the hinges on. I believe these are what I bought: www.homedepot.com/p/Red-Head-3-8-in-x-3-in-Hex-Head-Sleeve-Anchors-15-Pack-11013/100025194
@@RogueWrenching Good work. I too am doing DIY RV gate with new block column. The question I cannot find an answer to is... How long did you wait for the mortar to cure inside the column before you drill the holes and installed anchors? Thanks!
@Douglas Main Most importantly, I filled the column with rebar reinforced concrete, NOT mortar, I waited 7 days. Most industrial applications tell you 28 days, but if memory serves, you're at like 80% strength in 7 days.
@@RogueWrenching I appreciate the quick response. The column I took down held a 44" man gate and that was filled with "mortar", which I believe to just be Portland cement. You used the same stuff that you used for the footer? I too reinforced with rebar
Honestly it was way to much to pack into one video. This was one of my first videos I made. I'm building a gate for a neighbor in the next month or so and I'll show a lot more of the construction on that one. The mortar... Yea. My first time doing it. It was terrible. That's why I didn't show much.

I like it, good job
Thanks!
You did a good job man I live in Arizona I build gates and block walls and you did a great job
Thanks!!! The whole thing turned out ok as long as you don't look too close at the block haha. This was my first time doing any kind of masonry work.
@@RogueWrenching if you ever need help let me know
How much would it cost to have something like this done?

I could tell that was AZ right away. 😂
110 degrees haha definitely Arizona.
Video was super helpful.
Wear PPE when cutting concrete bubba. Does terrible stuff to your lungs. Stay safe.
This was my first experience cutting concrete, at the time I didn't know about the hazards of concrete dust. I do now.
Supplies list please and what did you use for the site posts?
I’m in chandler btw
It's a long list, something probably better handled via email than here in the comments. Please email me @ RogueWrenching@gmail.com
Great job, what kind of Mig welder did you use?
It's a cornwell branded unit, I don't know the model off the top of my head, but it's a 110v mig.
Where did you get the actual gate from? Or did you make it?
I built it myself, I built another one like it and did a separate video, check it out here: th-cam.com/video/YG_-dcq_U5U/w-d-xo.html
Where did you find blocks to match the color of your existing wall?
A local company called "Preach Building Supply" in Buckeye AZ stocked them. They are Oldcastle brown, most hone depot stores can get them but they have to be ordered.

I drilled and set 5x 3/8th inch concrete anchors then bolted up 2x2 angle iron to the block then welded the hinges on.
Where did you buy the door frame?
I built it from scratch
What did you actually use to anchor to the wall
I used 3/8" bolt type concrete anchors
Nice weld job.
Thanks, my skills have come a long way.
What did you use to cut the block wall?
