Building A Dog Gate / Barrier

In this video I build a dog/pet gate or barrier that folds up for storage. It can be used to keep your pet in designated areas and because it is bi-fold it can be used in different width areas. It is a good do it yourself project.

Great job Tommy, it's nice to see some proper mortice and tenon joinery instead of dominos that alot of youtubers use 👌

Thanks Thomas 🙂

[@johnmurphy3854]

Couldn't agree more there are craftsmen and then there are novice woodworkers, sadly youtube doesn't differentiate between the two

[@denischadwick4558]

Great Tommy 👍 I love watching your machines and you are very experienced using them. Great to have you back

Great video Tommy, would love to see the tennoner on the workshop tour series. We'll done on the 1000 subscribers!!

Thanks Cillian 🙂 that will be coming soon 👍

Man that mortiser, tenoner and spindle moulders are beasts of machines (and the panel saw of course, but that one is more common :P). I would like an origin story! Like these machines are not just a hobby, you've got to be in the business of furniture making with these! Want to see some big projects too! :)

Hi Dirk you are correct it used to be a joinery business but due to some reasons including ill health it is now just a hobby and for youtube. If things go well the projects will get bigger don't worry 😉

[@DirkieB]

@ well at least you’ve inherited a very fine shop from your previous life! Congratulations on 1k subs!

@@DirkieB thanks 😊

[@MakingRecovery]

Yea these are the tools of my dreams 😢

[@bobheatwole804]

Nice way to get rid of a chain, no doubt the dog love's the folding fence.

I'm sure he does 🙂

[@rockbun3985]

Nice one Tommy, great to have you back on YT with your brilliant videos. Can't wait for the next one. P.S. congrats on the 1k subs too.

Thanks very much 😀 great to be back and let's hope I can keep it growing 🤞

[@nostringsattached93]

Ahhhh, brilliant! Was wondering at first how you’d make the footing work with the fold… love it. That was all I was lacking on my own folding gate and wasn’t sure how to do it!
Thank you!! 💯🤘🏻

Thanks for watching 🙂. I'm glad you found it helpful

[@Fitbykimmy]

[@stevesedgwick5789]

Quality build as always

Thanks Steve 🙂

[@rosascreativeworks5403]

Gotta keep those doggies in line! LOL Nice build. Very cool.

Thank you 😊

[@jcoul1sc]

Its good practice to mortise from the outsides to the centre, that way you won't bend the mortise chisel
A mask would be useful when routering too

I agree when using 6mm bit and chisel but with a good quality 10mm or 12mm bit and chisel bending them isn't an issue so not as important to get concerned about even cuts. Yes I should have worn a mask but pine isn't that dusty so I be ok 👌

[@Steve_Wojo]

Hi Tommy, New subscriber. Your channel is fantastic. I'll be watching my friend.

Thanks for your support 🙂

[@TomTrees]

Could do with changing that intro a bit, I keep thinking I hit a wrong button
as that sounds like music which gets paired with the computer voice.
All the best
Happy new year

I have a new intro in the making 🙂

[@mycreativedesignsspace6739]

This isn’t a diy this is what me use all these tool most people looking for help don’t have…

I never said it was diy I just showed how I built it using the tools I have. A creative person would use the idea and come up with methods to make it using the tools that they have. Woodworking is not an exact science everything has several different ways to achieve similar results

[@MrHthr33]

Can you make a similar video using common hand tools I don’t even have a sander. 😢

[@alexpellman8637]

So was that just clear silicone caulking to hold the bolt for the feet in? Also what was the part you were grinding off the bolt. Was it the threads just at the tip or where the feet rest so the can move more freely. Thanks

Hi Alex, It was a clear construction adhesive I used and I was just grinding any burrs etc off the ends of the threaded rod

[@jcoul1sc]

Just use a dog chain then no barrier needed

[@mikewright5094]

Or don’t have a dog 😂😂
