The kind of bloke you'd want as a neigbour to help you out on small projects like this!
@Layne Paxton Pro tip : watch movies at BBC. Been using them for watching a lot of movies lately.
Nice vid ... i wondered if something similar would work on my dragging gate, and now your work has given me the confidence to do the same with my own saggy situation. Kudos !
This is a great candidate for an Adjust-A-Gate
The way you show us so amazing and so simple. Thanks so much for the video. One of the best video I ever seen. 👍
Thank you ! Nice and slow and clear explanation. Will watch it again before doing my own next weekend.
Tim San thanks for watching
I live seeing others with their solutions to problems. Thank you! Made it nice and simple. Can’t wait to fix my chicken coop door!
Great job on fixing of the gate !! You may find the hinges are to small for the weight of the gate !! Thanks for sharing
Really a nice video and exactly what I was looking for to fix a funky gate. Thank you! 👏🏻
Glad it helped!
The real reason this gate sagged was not because of the wood,weight, or hinges. The framing of this gate is incorrect. There is not vertical support to the frame work(no side 2x4s in the frame work). It has horizontal and diagonal support but without that vertical support the diagonal means nothing and it will sag for that reason. I've fixed so many gates built that same way and it's always the same problem. The original fence builder didn't take the time to properly build it, they just made a panel and slapped a diagonal brace and called it a day. Very common incorrect frame work. ~ But you are correct about leveling the holes and re-drilling them. Those original holes looked like it was installed without leveling and was just eye balled without any pilot holes.
When the video showed inside of the gate that was the first thing I noticed too.
I wish I could do it, your instructions are very good. I am an old person, so i need someone to do it for me. My house is in Cowes, Phillip Island. I need a handymen like you or with your experience
Thanks for the video!
You just saved $150...well done sir!
Great informative video thank you
Thanks for sharing this video
Nice job
See those little square holes in the hinges ? Thats for carriage bolts. People just use lag bolts and then they get to come back later and revisit this exact same problem over and over. USE carriage bolts.
good for all
Glen M. Thank you.
Thank you. Im closing on a house next Friday, and our gate is sagging so bad, we can't close it.
Great video, I have to deal with a metal fence gate that is sagging, the hinges are welded on so I have to cut those off are realign them
Before I was working on my fence and I have information about the sagging gates. therefore, I have to install the stopper block on one side of the gate.
Good bro
My wooden gate is installed 1/2" above the concrete slab. So far. so good.
D Monty sounds like you got it fixed.
Actually I just built and hung this one. and it works great!
This happens in Ca all the time. My brother has the issue where we have to lift the gate up to open. This will cost a few bucks to have done. Can you come over lol
What is the reason for having an upward angle on the hinge toward the door? Also, is it normal to have the gap larger on the bottom than on top ?
Edgar, The upward slant is for future drooping. The cedar is a soft wood and the weight of the gate will ultimately weight it down. So I am anticipating this will happen and so I dont have to do this in another year, I slope it up. This is the reason for the different gap sizes. The gap will close over time.
So... the smallest gap at the bottom of the gate above the concrete is 1/2 inch?
I used a board as the bottom spacer, 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch is enough room.
Gotcha, thanks!
At least, I will have two inches above the ground.
HsingSun , that should work
I live alone & have a four foot double cedar gate, I’m trying to watch & learn so I can fix the sag myself 😢😢
Frost heap.
Where's the rest of that chicken? To go with them legs looool
why not just lift the fence up even then reattach the hinge?
Bodie you're such a ham !! Lol
Tim, I see you found me. subscribe for all my fun.
A turnbuckle would fix this issue
It was more detail than that. a turnbuckle might help but not solve the issue
@@DIYHGP Turnbuckles just end up twisting the door. I don't think they are good solutions.
I must be missing something... Why do I keep seeing so many You-Tubers using Ryobi drills ? Is it a sponsor thing ?
In my world Ryobi ranks up there with Harbor Freight pwr tools.
Chooper, that’s an astute observation, the reality is that Ryobi is a dependable and relatively inexpensive tool and a lot of people use them for their interchangeable batteries. Most likely scenario is if someone is not using Ryobi then they have a sponsorship with that tool brand.
Ryobi impacts and drills are actually really well built. I've had my set for many many years. I install metal roofs, decks, fencing. I have yet to have one fail me. They have outlasted the dewalt tools around me.
Because it’s cheap and they work for easy projects 🤷♂️
Because the battery connection is the same year after year. A ten year old battery will fit. And when we drop and break our tools they don’t cost a fortune to replace.
This is a temporary fix.... in 2-3 yrs the gate will sag again. I wonder what its condition is now. Not your fault... unfortunately the gate lacks vertical bracing (no vertical side supports) and thus in time will drop/sag again.
It’s been more than three years and still working great
I'm convinced you should just never make gates out of wood. They always sag, always. Use metal.
Completely untrue... If they are built correctly, they will not sag.
Why tf is your right leg smaller than your left leg?
You lost all credibility with me when you broke out your Ryobi impact driver.
