Good instructions, I bought two 6 footers Behlen gates at $ 179 a piece to replace 35 years old sagging redwood gates that were hella heavy . Got it done in 10 hours or one day including removing the old redwood gates and fixing the old 2 posts for Behlen metal gates Amazing how light weight the 6 footer Behlen gates are . And those 4 lag bolts are amazingly strong when I twisted them CW and CCW to level the gates Am very happy to find the Behlen products. And they are CHEAPER at $179 x 2 = $ 358 than chain link gates estimate at $ 980 because of 2 additional two 2 5/8. inches chain link metal posts and 6 bags 60 lbs concretes It’s much easier to install than chain link gates that require metal posts

Post holes were already dug, concrete was already poured, post’s were already set and leveled, and holes were already predrilled, but good instruction nonetheless.

l wanted to see how the holes were drilled horizontally & vertically spot on throughout a 8 inch pole
@t.b.a.r.r.o.4 жыл бұрын
I would drill from the gate side of the post. That drill could walk quite a bit over 6 to 8 inches. Look at her angle when she powers up for that bottom hole. She would have ended up an inch low by the time she was through had the holes not been predrilled.

You guys should also show how you install these gates to metal posts because they use different Hardware that people would like to see also I'm sure because I don't want to use wooden posts on the sides of my Gates because I live in a high fire danger area so I want to use metal for everything instead and I'm sure a lot of other people use metal posts also.

nice video instruction, thanks! question, how do you put the post down? jut dig a hole, put the post down and pour concrete around it and the post will stick to concrete when dried?
@dcgregorya54343 жыл бұрын
The quick setting concrete has instructions. Each brand is a little different but basically yes you dig the hole usually with an augur (2 man or tractor) to a depth at least 1/3rd the size of the post...then usually a layer of gravel then water + concrete then backfill it with dirt and level the dirt on a slope down so water doesn't sit against the post.

If the woman here doesn't know how to install a gate, that's not 'mansplaining' but rather 'instruction' or 'teaching'. He's not being condescending, just teaching her how to install a gate. Just because a man is the teacher doesn't make everything 'mansplaining' sweetheart.

how heavy of a gate can you have on one 6" round wooden post?
@bend4852 Жыл бұрын
It shouldn't be much of an issue with a small gate like this but if it's a big gate like 10 or 12 foot dont make it level. Leave it slightly lower on the side that attaches to the pole because it will sag over time. If done right then after a couple years and its sagged a few inches it should be pretty level

For aesthetics, the same amount should be above ground as the anchor post. If that doesn't matter, than sink it as deep as you need to stop whatever animal might be pushing against the gate!
