How to Fix and Lift Up a Sagging Gate DIY!

In this video, I am fixing my sagging wooden gate and lift it up off the ground where it has been dragging on for a while! Sagging gates can be quite annoying but the solution is not as hard as you might guess! I used both compression and tension braces to lift up my gate! The result was absolutely great. I was able to get them off the ground more than an inch!

You can do it! Go for it!!👍

[@venesatorres3055]

Thanks so much for this! Exactly what I need! Sisters are doing it for themselves!!! 😁

[@WadaGoodIdea]

Thats right😅👍

[@heroknaderi]

That's a great fix i enjoyed it. Oh anothe idea i thought off too is if you took a piece of plywood and applyed it to the gate the same size and it will hold extra strong. I enjoyed your video and very appriciative.😀😊

[@WadaGoodIdea]

Awesome

Do you have the link for the compression spring/cable?

[@quangthang10d4]

It's great to see that you used both compression and tension braces. What's the need to add the vertical support beams on the outside? Just to keep the gate square?

[@WadaGoodIdea]

Yes its an old gate and it was wobbly!
