    title should say 'how I' not 'how to'.. 'how to' suggests it will guide/instruct with detail.. some good tips and i do still appreciate it

    1:53 this is the most satisfying moment in all of gate building for some reason. Followed by the moment the door is hung, swings and lines up perfectly. And that's followed by months years later when you close it after severe weather and it's still as solid as the day you built it or better. mmm

    It’s actually a very well written and comprehensive book th-cam.com/users/postUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 . I wanted to pair this with an updated book on local codes to start planning a post-retirement dream shop. I think I have just about everything I need between the two. The extra plans available for purchase towards the end are priced almost as much as full home plans, not little sheds however.

  • @TomLeg
    @TomLeg 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    In this case the top of the free side presses down through the diagonal to the supported side. But does it really matter? not like there's any great weight involved.

    • @Candisa
      @Candisa 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It matters over time, supporting lasts a lot longer than hanging, don't underestimate gravity/weight over time.

      Screws grab better and when pre-drilled properly with the right size bit it will never split the wood.

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but shouldn’t the bracing on the gate alternate so that it stops the gate from moving in both directions?

    • @predzrx7
      @predzrx7 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I got taught to brace the way scott has built it so that the weight of the outside of the gate transfers back to the hinge, helps the gate not to sag and drop on non hinge side

  • @matthewcostello8577
    @matthewcostello8577 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Is there a specific reason why you attach the henge to it’s own post rather the post at the end of the fence line? I have this delimma now and am not sure the best way forward. I have a post set for the latch and was thinking I’d attach to the hinge at the end of my fence line.

    • @mcleaniechris
      @mcleaniechris 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Matthew usually we hang gates and doors this way when there is a wall behind them. That way the gate only needs to open 90 degrees and will hit a door stop on the house side. Also opening this way means you get to look straight at the deck you walk into as you open it, rather than looking at a brick wall first as you open the door. Hope that helps.

    • @DiscoFang
      @DiscoFang 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Always try to hinge from the strongest, most rigid side. Hinging from a free-standing post is a recipe to have that post bend over time. Gravity always wins with timber.

    • @DiscoFang
      @DiscoFang 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The only risk is the weight pulling the timber posts sideways over time. With timber, no matter the size of the post, it WILL happen. Securing to the house prevents that.
