We had a new fence and two gates installed last fall and despite the

about 4' holes and two bags of cement per 6" post they have moved. This
means that the gates no longer latch on any given day, as the peg won't
allow the catch to close. The frost ripped the screws out of one peg at
one
point. There must be gate latches that are more forgiving to movement?

TIA


Reposition and/or align the latch?

Problem is they move with the frost. Some days they close, some days they
don't. I'm thinking spring loaded hinges and a stopper might be the way to
go.
