FAQs
How do you hang a garden gate?
Hanging a garden gate is straightforward, and you’re often supplied with instructions with the product. But as a quick guide:
- Firstly, install your gate posts into the floor, ensuring they’re vertical and straight.
- Attach suitable hinges to the gate first, spaced out evenly across the length of the side.
- Use blocks or wedges to ensure the gate is held at the correct height but leave a small gap for ground clearance.
- Next, position the gate up against the hinge post, marking where your gate hinges will need to go on the post.
- Fasten the hinges to the post and check the gate swings freely.
- If you need to adjust, simply unfasten and realign. Once you’re happy, fit the latch and a gate stop if you have one.
To make sure your gate is completely straight and closes right, use a spirit level and measuring tape.
