I am trying to remove an old gate from a wooden post. The holder screws
have rusted, as have the nuts and bolts holding the gate. What is the
best thing to do: should I try to cut through the metal, or force the
gate off the post with a crow bar? or some other solution.


I would cut or drill out the bolts and screws to free the hinge in one
piece. If the wood post were to come out then I might just cut that now. A
crow bar would likely break the gate off but still leave the hinges hanging.
