I couldn't help but chuckle when you said to the chickens: "I'm serious." Delightful!!
Loved the video! I was interested about the gate spring to be honest, but watching your chickens doing an impromptu runner was a lovely and very funny bonus! In fact I found your vid far funnier than a lot of Hollywood comedies :)
Guess I'll cluck off now. Thanks again
Nice to see chickens having a good decent life instead of being processed and treated as if life means nothing! 👏👏
The bit with the chickens is the most British thing I've ever seen. And if he's not British he should be.
Yay you always have to be careful when you have extras in your videos..... never sure what they will do. I almost forgot the spring after seeing the chickens ! As always, entertaining and educational.
PERFECTION!! I knew it didn't have to go through the metal hinge, as other videos insisted. Bless you. I'm ready for this project, God willing. :)
Love this mate. You remind me of people I know.
Looking a cheap way to make my front gate close tight every time for when there's a dog
"ah you poo'd on my path" is what i used to say when i worked in san francisco great video btw i managed to fixed my spring!
I thought the spring would go on the outside as a closer?
"You've pooed on my path... 😠" 😂😂
Excellent instructions. Fitted same type of spring to our gate toda( 23/12/23)
Thanks very much for showing this. I had no idea of how to work this gadget until I had seen this video. Good luck with your hens and eggs.
Brilliant instructions. And the chickens were hilarious. I wonder if this will work on a metal gate.
Totally cute when they all rolled out...lol
Also works for delivery drivers that leave gates open!!!
Got one of these today, could not figure out how to tension it and it came with no instructions. Life safer! Thanks
Helpful thanks for posting!
Thank you for information. Love your hens.👍💜
Fab idea 💡 super helpful thanks 🙏 ❤
❤️ chicken whisperer!!👍
Thanks for keeping the chicken interlude in the video. :D You must be a chicken whisperer, most of my chickens would be over those fences in a heartbeat even though they are heavy breeds.
I think you have cornered the market in spring chicken video's Tim.
I love chickens and roosters.
exceeded my expectations~
I like this video big thanks for the help how 2 put a bracket on the gate 🌹👌
Haha I love it! I came for the tips, but I stayed for the chicken wrangling ;)
Shouldn't the spring be on the other side of the gate. Is the soring suppose to work by stretching or by compression.
My thoughts exactly. We have kids playing in our back garden all the time with our kids and the gate is heavy for them to close. I thought this spring might pull it shut. Doesn’t seem to have enough strength to shut it as spring is used here. Perhaps I could put it on other side as spring is on the inside of my house storm door.
Does it have to be fitted on the hinge side, is it possible to fit on the latch side, thank you
nice neat video , thanks
I use the same method you will find when kids let the gate close on a fully opened gate the little metal pegs will just jump out of the slots...glue or weld pegs into place...just a heads up?
Will keep an eye on them. 👍 They do make them unnecessarily loose!
I have an interior a door closer with a similar design, and the pegs screw in. Maybe the peg could be replaced with a screw / bolt? My exterior spring pegs also fell out, so I will try a small screw this time.
having worked in the industrial door industry i can tell you that is a right hand gate spring ( hinge on right hand side of gate) you just unwound the spring which technically means you have taken tension off
Tim you are the chicken whisperer, in complete control there mate 😂👍😂👍
love it
Good short video. No stupid music. 10/10
Will this spring still work if the gate opens both ways push and pull thanks
You've heard of "herding cats", now there's "herding chickens". LOL
Quite the art!
It's way more fun if you use a water pistol . . .
"Them chickens are up to summat!"
🤣 NO you stay! 🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓 🤣 anther informative video with the added feature of Chicken Run the sequel 🤣
Maybe consider switching to torx screws to avoid stripping the drive.
How heavy of the gate can this spring handle?
soooo cute
Thought the spring was meant to go on the outside of the gate so it stretches when opening the pulls it back shut ??
So do I until I realised how it was meant to be done. 👍
Has anyone managed to adapt this spring for a metal gate?
My gate opens exactly like yours and I installed the spring like you on the same hinge side and it's opening it not shutting it?
I think on that side top needs to be on post snd bottom on gate, that’s what instructions say
Tension it the other way.

Nope.
Great video! I am going to locate my chicken run close to the vegetable garden now! Do you know of a soft close option like we have for inside cabinets? I want to have a gate without a latch so we can get through it with our hands full but it will close and stay closed without latching it.
Perhaps a gate spring and then some heavy duty rare earth magnets. 👍
How do I fix a spring to a steal gate that doesn't have a hinge just had a bolt fixing at top and bottom that let's gate open and close. How do I fix a spring t that kind of gate
This is what I'm trying to find out
You let those chickens out for comedy relief didnt you?😁LOL
We're did u buy it ?)?
I think one quarter of the continent was about the gate spring and the other 3/4 was the chickens in the garden. Not complaining but it’s definitely not focused on the topic in the title.

Do you endorse the concept of putting a finish on each part of the exterior parts prior to assembly?
Mostly to insure adequate protection from the elements.
Terrific production in every aspect.
Not sure which you mean but I always try and treat cut ends of timber yes, as for metal, usually galvanised so leave as is.

Do you not paint/stain all surfaces of exterior fence or gate components?
Ah I see. Well with the picket fence I did as it was easier to spray all the components green first rather than mess around after. All the wood is usually treated which helps.
Them's ain't ducks 😂
Wranngling Avian Dinosauria..... LOL
Omg I'm first XD
WizSpencer na good try tho buddy 😆
@@dreamfpv7865 this video was up for 8 seconds when I commented XD I'm sure I was first haha
