Overall tour with build details on my 12 ft 8 in wide steel framed cedar gate. Then we head over my friend Tyler's house and weld up a similar one that is split gate design. I know a lot of people will see this and say "well I don't have a welder", but mig welders are super cheap these days and it's very easy to weld mild steel. So stop by your local Harbor Freight and pick one up. You won't regret it.

The tension cable makes the install perfect, people forget the movement comes from the post bending this amplifies the drop in the gate by balancing the load you remove the droop, superb bit of simple engineering

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

For sure. While I have not use the tension cable yet, who knows maybe 10 years from now it will come in handy! Better safe than sorry. If I could go back I probably would have used a 6 inch post, but I didn't want to decrease the width of the driveway

[@Caveman125]

I greatly appreciate your upload, I’m looking to build something similar and found a lot of information and never would have thought of the rebar in the fence posts. Thank you so much!

[@MotorSwapDan]

Great video, thorough, entertaining and you showed all the unique bits you did making your gate.

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Thanks man glad you enjoyed it

[@fernandop937]

2 years later and still the best gate I’ve seen fabricated at someone’s home! Real inspiration to a lazy new homeowner lol

[@MISJPEREZ]

Thanks for the links much needed

No problem Janina!

“The hinges are just decorative.” Hell yes! No nonsense engineering at its finest. Clearly, sir, you do not shy away from overkill. You’ve made the Cadillac of all gates.

Nice work! Very secure

[@brolyv5802]

Wow crazy secure!

[@leehansen7006]

We built this gate! Thanks for the inspiration!

Thanks man. Happy to hear it you got some ideas out of the video. Good luck on your build! Cheers!

looks great built very strong even a tank ram would have trouble 😁

[@tyleremenhizer6325]

Thanks for putting me in the video man! Your way of the gate is the reason why I went that route, very strong last forever! Great video on the gates, next time I will use bigger better post lol

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

My man! I appreciate you! Hope you're gate lasts for many years to come

[@blakescorsone4958]

Hey Tyler; i cant find the exact link to the hinges for the 2 3/8 pipe that you have!! Could you post a link??? Please

[@alexyummmy]

Wow, super impressed. Probably the best gate I've seen on KZbin.

[@operationhotshotinc.6887]

Thanks for sharing

[@thebeek123]

After paint it looks like a million bucks. 😂 Nice editing. Like how you added the little girl swinging on the door in the wind. 👍

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

It's funny you say that , this was my first time using Adobe Premiere and it took me a god-awful amount of time to put this together since I was just learning how to use it. So thank you! Made my night. And yeah LOL, that clip is hilarious. Can't believe she held on to the door and if you look close she actually held onto her cell phone as well. Girl is tough as nails

[@Steve44036]

You sir just solve an issue of me banging my head against the wall on how to close the gap on my six foot wide door project. Also appreciate your tips on securing the post to avoid deflection. In addition, I like your robust security features. Anyway to get more details on the rebar set,up and security?

[@christophermays8998]

Very nice video I’m thinking about doing this at my new house

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Thanks. Good luck on your project

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

I apologize for the re-upload. After uploading the original video, I did a small blur edit through KZbin and it got stuck in limbo. Had to delete and repost to correct the issue. Also thank you to the couple guys that commented letting me know the video wasn't playing.

[@kwinterburn]

No problem nice bit of engineering as usual from you. Elegant is the word, overengineering is when OCD meets engineering. I'm guilty of that ... my kids playroom has a cable tensioned roof just for fun and to upset the mere mortals

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

@@kwinterburn thanks for the kind words and support man. The playroom roof sounds like a nice piece.

[@glenmartin2437]

Thanks.

[@JohnStrandt]

SS40 seems to be a fencing specific product. Pipe schedules are ASME standards for pipe sizing. Sch 40 is standard weight pipe (wall thickness). A 4” sch 40 pipe will be ~4” ID, and 4 1/2” OD.

[@alandscape4622]

Fuck it’s probably the best gate I ever seen and am a contractor to be exact 20 year fence contractor let me tell you sir your are smart

[@jasonestepp6846]

Impressive

[@eschrader]

13:20 the benefit of not having a post on the left if you try to pull your truck past. It's a bit back after the house edge so you can start to sweep the front wheels at an angle. That's what you should tell people 😊

[@simplyhandy2769]

No such thing of "Over-engineering" when it comes to your own home! Lol

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

LOL yeah I suppose so. Better to Overkill it and get the extra life span

[@operationhotshotinc.6887]

How about adding casters to help with the sag

[@frankish5314]

Very nice.. I love the DIY gate hinges and might be stealing the idea. Are the gate posts galvanized or just regular steel?

[@blakescorsone4958]

Hey man killer work! doing a similar build to Tylers house but I cant find those exact pipe hinges on the website that you used at Tylers house. Can you post a link to the exact ones PLEASE??

[@makaimycynek4128]

Do you have a material list for this?

[@TomTom9290]

Where did you get the 4 1/2" OD, 4" ID Pipe and collars? The largest pipe I can find is 4" OD.

[@Justin-kj5sv]

This is one of the best built gates I have seen

[@JPEBeard]

Did you use 16-gauge steel post on for the fence (not the gate) or was that schedule 40?

[@vlsr71]

Looks like i found the overkill channel. Alright!

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Heck yeah man!

[@gnawty4662]

How did you screw on the Wooden pallets today to the iron? (What equipment did you use?) Looooove the gate Update: you used stainless steel self tapping screws 👍 - thanks!

[@leelunk8235]

YOU MADE ME A GOOD FOOT HOLDER WHEN I JUMP YOUR FENCE😂 IN 3 SECONDS

[@law35penn]

Those hinges are nice but not for some one who can't get welding done and expensive

[@nawfalwaraqa3238]

Very good job.. What is the brush thing in black called?thnks

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Thanks. And I'm not sure of the exact name. I think I was looking up garage door brushes to find it.

[@annettesurfer]

You could always half-lap the picket edges to eliminate the gaps. Just enough to allow them to slide across for expansion and contraction. Or it might be possible to cut a kerf-sized slot to insert thin strips of metal or FRP to provide privacy and perhaps additional stability for pickets that have a tendency to warp out of alignment. A half-lap would help there too but only if the warp is toward the lap, meanwhile a strip would probably need to be painted to blend. Just remember to reapply anti-seize on the fasteners to prevent dissimilar metal galvanic corrosion. I have a crazy idea to install lightweight cedar pickets onto an aluminum frame and rather than swinging inward or outward, use garage door hardware to slide it upward into a carport. Garage doors are segmented into panels to pass the track radius but I’d just use the top and bottom of the assembly to achieve the same purpose. I still have to determine how much weight a torsion spring can handle.

Good man. Thank you!

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

No prob! Good luck on your build

[@GingerBeardMan_]

You mentioned making a video about filling the post in with rebar and concrete around the 8:10 mark, did that end up working to get rid of the sag from the added weight of the pickets? I looked but wasn’t able to find the video. Great channel btw! I really enjoy your overkill designs and creative solutions

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Yes it helped out but I still wish I went with a thicker post

[@salmanclay3668]

I've got a 65x65mm post holding a 1.3m by 1.8m fence up and can see some flex. Now that I have the reinforcement idea I will try it thank you.

[@rogervrooman1658]

Awesome build, and I am using this to build a double swinging gate spanning 17'... Couple of questions, 1) what did you use to paint the galvanized posts and sleeves??? That black color looks so much better than just regular galvanized!!! and 2) Did you use wafer head stainless steel self-tapping screws??? (I tried the amazon links, and they don't work for me, sorry)... Thanks again, will shoot you pics of mine after complete in a couple of weeks... Roger V

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Thanks. I used semi-gloss rustoleum brush on paint. And cleaned the galvanized posts with acetone first. It will tend to peel as it gets older though in areas. But it's easy to touch up. Hard to get paint to stick to galvanized.

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

And yes I used self-tapping steel screws. Actually ended up replacing them with stainless screws later down the line though to match the rest of my fence. Dabbed a little grease on each one also to help from the hole rusting out in the future. Good luck on your build!

[@rogervrooman1658]

@@NoNonsenseKnowHow Thanks much for the quick replies!!! Appreciate you documenting this!!!

[@ShawnCNC]

Great video! Where did you find the collars with the weld nut and bolt? All of the collars I see are the weld-on type. Thanks!

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

I made them

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Unless you talking about something different. It's been a while since I did this project

[@blakescorsone4958]

I think he is referring to the hinges at Tylers house. I can find those either?? In the video you said he found them online. But i think the link you had posted was the weld ok style you had on your fence.

[@MrPhazeTwo]

How much important is the rebar reinforced gate post and should I do that as well? I'm building a similar gate like yours.

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

I'm not sure how much it helps. I did it just because I felt the 4-in was thinner than it should be but the next size up was 6-in it was like double the price and also would have cut down on the width of my opening

[@db0nn3r]

Awesome gate. Hook us up with links to the hardware man. Been looking for those gate latches forever. Grease fitting Sleeves, gate latch and pin code lock. Link me up!

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Thanks man. I'll see if I can find some links for the stuff and plug it in the description

What is a helical rod? And did you bury that thing in concrete too?

It's a twist in ground anchor. In soil

[@marcelclover6650]

DAM MAN.

[@phantomg2151]

Does he ever mention the size wire he used to weld it

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

.030

[@farealwitit7947]

would b nice if u edit the weld light out. very hard on the eyes

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Noted. Thanks for the recommendation. I actually did that in one of my previous videos because the light was particularly harsh. Basically gave the viewers a little welding shade box

[@Prairie_Barbarian]

Wear your welding mask then

[@kimgardner4464]

Too bad the fence at 4:08 was put in backward. Always polite to put in a fence with the outside facing your neighbor, so they don't have to look at the back side.

[@davez2989]

I have to ask WHY? When did this become a thing? If the neighbor wants a good side they can build their own fence. Why is the good side supposed to go to your neighbor? Why can' you be the neighbor? Especially if they aren't paying for any of it, and or building it with you. In my opinion you put the good side the direction that makes you the happiest. There are lots of ways to make a fence nice looking as well on both side.

[@ShyRage1]

Lol, who made that a thing? If you're paying, you can do what you want. That's the rule.

[@yuwang6469]

Where can we find SS40 pipe?

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

I bought mine at suburban fence in Trenton New Jersey. I would think any fence supplier should be able to get it or stock it

[@Canamxrs]

What gauge is that

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

I thought I mentioned it in the video but maybe I could be mistaken. It's 14 gauge and the vertical piece that the hinges are welded to is 11 gauge

[@misaamane2850]

What do you call that drop rod?

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

I call it a drop rod.

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

It's a piece of stainless steel round bar though

can you come to hawaii to build my gate and fence? i’ll pay your ticket room and board .

[@olderolderman4603]

All those 🔐 s are to the honest people out right ?

[@owstonlad3859]

The basics of the gate are good, simple steel frame and wooden lath's but the accessories are, as been said, over engineered..... more suitable to fort knox.

[@DIRT-BOSS]

Nice flag 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Heck yeah man! I actually tore it with my foot when I was hopping back down from sitting on top of the gate though. lol. Oh well, it was pretty faded and ready for replacement anyway. Got to order a new one.

[@ColdperpetratorLv]

Yeah steel can do anything lol

[@jayfromtexas6718]

Man! You don’t do anything half assed!

No I haven't taken on any jobs building these. I wouldn't even know where to begin with how much to charge.

[@rickjames6948]

Security? That gate keeps the honest people out. All those cypher locks crack me up. Probably a fire code violation more like it.

[@rickjames6948]

WOW what a huge gap where the gate panels meet.

[@BS.-.-]

That's alot of gate for the theif to just use a cordless circular saw and cut a hole in the side of the house. But then again I bet the neighbors are alot easier to rob.

[@rickjames6948]

Top horizontal steel is too low. No wonder your picket tops are deflecting all over the place. Should of repeated what you did on the bottom.

[@rickjames6948]

Hope you have a light shining on that flag at night. Only way to display our flag properly.
