Default Gate with one gatepost

I need to fit a small gate to a single post with the gate's free side

satisfactory) way of fitting a post on the free side. The gate has to
remain fairly robustly shut (resistant to the weight of a small dog) but
simply openable by a human.

I can think of one or two ways to do this but is there a standard way, a
commercial product, or experience of something that works? Many thanks
for any thoughts.



Does it have to open in both directions, or only one? If the latter,
could you adapt one of these, but with the pin mounted vertically on the
top of the wall? Granted, that might not be considered aesthetic.

Alternatively a bolt going into the wall?
