I have a gate that is framed with 4x4's. I want to put a doorknob in
it but am having trouble finding doorknobs that fit doors over 2"
thick. Does anyone know where I can find exterior door knobs for 3.5"
thick doors?

Wouldn't it be just be a matter of using longer screws and a longer
operating rod?

Not sure if you're talking about doorknobs in the sense that are used on
regular doors. Or if you are talking about latches that can be worked from
both sides. A latch that can be worked on both sides would be easy for a
welder or fabricator to make, and come up with something that looks great.
If you just want regular brass doorknobs, I'm sure the lock shop will have a
solution for you.

I didn't ask the question.
