Thanks!

Love the design! I just might copy it! :)

[@markbuilds]

Thanks! Hope it turns out great!

They look amazing. About how much in material cost would you say?

[@markbuilds]

Thanks!! It was definitely under $100. I can’t remember exactly. I’ll have to keep a total for the next diy I do. Sorry!

[@solidgalaxy3339]

I would say about $50

Hey Mark Builds absolutely love the gate I'm going to build one today for my dogs and soon to be baby. What kind of wood was that and what size?

[@markbuilds]

It’s 1x3 poplar for the frame and 1x2 for the center portion! Good luck!! Be careful of the order you put it together in, I had trouble screwing some of the angles in because the drill didn’t fit in the space. I think with a little foresight I could have avoided that.

Hello :) good video! Is something like this possible in a hallway with regular flat walls? My hallway is basic just two walls. No framing in it like yours does.

[@markbuilds]

Definitely! You just need to find the studs! It wouldn’t hold up to a dog jumping on it for long if you don’t. Mounting the latch would have to be different. I think I’ve seen people attach a single board to the wall to give the latch somewhere to mount.

@@markbuilds thanks for the tips 🙂

Along with the pocket screws, I would use some wood glue as well so it eventually doesn’t loosen up

[@markbuilds]

So far, the only problem with it is where the puppy chewed it, but I use a lot more wood glue now then at that time. Thanks for the comment

I would build it with self closing hinges

[@markbuilds]

Definitely a great idea! We prefer to leave it open unless we need to use it

[@WillLeingang]

Looks awesome! But how can I explain to my wife that I need a Festool Domino to build this when you built it with pocket screws??? 😂

[@markbuilds]

lol one day I’ll have one of those

[@maddog1918]

like the design but dude you need to get a chop saw

[@markbuilds]

I have one now. It sure would have made this project easier and more accurate
