Description: The gate fell off it's hinges. Can you fix it some
how?
YES I CAN! Note from Les: In this case, the hinges were door ones. A door hinge is ok for a regular door. Sometimes you see doors with three or four hinges. The reason there are more is that the door is very heavy for it's width and so 3 or four may be needed to distribute the weight more evenly across more of them. When it comes to a gate, however you can use a beefier hinge and then only two will be required. But you should not use a door hinge on a heavy gate because in most cases it will not be able to support the weight and the abuse a gate gets. |

Description: SOMEONE TOLD ME THAT I HAVE TO REPLACE MY GATE IS
THAT TRUE?
Note from Les: LOTS OF PEOPLE GET TOLD LOTS OF STORIES TO SCARE THEM INTO BUYING FROM THEM. THEY BAD MOUTH THE OTHER PERSON WHO BUILT IT TO MAKE THEM LOOK GOOD. IT IS CHILDISH AND A DISHONORABLE WAY TO SELL, ESPECIALLY IF THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT. UNFORTUNATELY, MOST DON'T! BUT I DO. |
