Coverting fence section into gate...
I want to make one of the fence sections around my yard into a gate.
They are regular spaced vertical planks of cedar on three horizontal planks, and about 8 feet wide and 6 high. I was considering cutting in half down the middle, putting a couple of diagonals (one in each side). And then hinging the edges. The posts are solid and concreted in fine. Does this sound like a decent plan? I'm concerned about the thing sagging. I don't want any latch in the middle, so I'll put in a castle-style plank that can be lifted or rotated out of the way. Thanks for any tips if anyone has done such a thing. Dean |
