It was a bit of work to get the 2x4 on the top and bottom of it. Had to take a hand plane to get it to fit. Other than that, it's a solid solution to a saggy gate. Can easily re-titen it if I need to in the future.

Honestly worked fantastic!! Very strong and made gate building take only 30 minutes. I modified to swing outward with no issues at all. I may hit it with another coat of stronger paint just to jive it some more protection. Would totally buy again if needed.

Liked the ease at which I could build out a gate to the dimensions I wanted. However I was very disappointed in the screws and bolts. The "wood" screws that screw into the 2x4 material were a joke. you could tighten to about 6 inch/pound before they just spun. Absolutely no bite. I replaced them all with a quality coarse wood screw and it was much stronger. The carriage bolts used to attach the hinges immediately stripped out and would not hold the gate in place, so again I had to source new good quality bolts to replace what came in the kit.Overall a good kit with bad hardware. Just plan on replacing the screws and bolts.

Watch what your doing, follow directions, works fine, make sure the post you hook it to can handle the weight of the gate, than your good to go.

. Took me like 6 hours to assemble.. Not for people that never do repairs around the house.. Most important thing is the 2 anchor Bolts, as you can see in the picture, I bolted them both sides up. when the manual told you to bolt them, Top Up and Bottom Down. I learned this trick from YouTube. . if you bolt them in like the manual says, then you will need 2 people to put it together. . level adjustment will be extremely difficult. . the reason the manual tells you so is because they are afraid that people can just lift the whole gate up and steal it, but you cannot lift the gate up, when it is locked. So that is nonesense.. with both bolts in the upside position like my picture shows, you can adjust the level of the gate easily by turning either the upper bolt and the bottom bolt inside or outside by one full turn.. originally bolt them in until you don't see the threads anymore.. the manual says to drill the 2 holes with a 1/2 inch spade bit fully, by the length of the threads on the bolts. But after that you will also need to use a 5/8 spade bit to drill about 1/2 inch in, only 1/2 inch, so that you can turn the bolt in fairly easily. I say fairly easily, because it is still very hard. Also drilling the 5/8 opening so that you can drive the bolt in STRAIGHT. If the bolts don't go in straight then you will have a big sagging problem when mounting the gate.. if the gate is sagging down, then you can either turn the upper bolt IN by 1 turn, or turn the bottom bolt OUT by 1 turn. Do the reverse if necessary. Choosing to turn the upper bolt or the bottom bolt, depends on how far the 2 botls will be from the 4by4 post. Basically you have to level the gate, but also make sure that they lood good too. You dont want 1 bolt so far OUT or so far IN.. only adjust the sagging issue after you finish the whole lateral upper arm. Work on the sagging issue, and then assemble the lower arm. At the end, the anti sagging cable kit will take care of any minor sagging issue.. I think this is the most difficult thing to tackle, and that's why it took me 6 hours or more to finish the job, and I do it all by myself, without anybody helping me. I did this before Xmas, so all of my neighbours have left, and no one could have helped me. All I can say is that I never had a side gate as sturdy as this one, and I can basically step on it without any sagging problem. LAST thing is PLEASE, put a string across when you screw the wood planks, so they look good. Gosh, people on YouTube are screwing them in UP and Down and Up, just look at it, gives me a headache. Good luck and happy Side Gating.dan

With careful planning and repeated reviews of the included instructions as well as watching several YouTube videos I was able to assemble and install this gate system … successfully (by my standards) … see pictures …I replaced my wood-rotting side yard gate with the‘Adjust-A-Gate | Steel Frame DIY Gate Building Kit | 36â€-72†Wide | Up to 6’ Tall | New Black Color | AG72-LTP’As previously stated … I watched several YouTube videos to fully understand the assembly instructions … notably, I:- Didn’t measure 16 inches above & below the midpoint.- Because my support for the ‘Post Hinges’ was a 2x4 anchored to a block wall rather than to a 4x4 post, I replaced the ‘Post Hinges’ included in the kit with (pictured) ‘Insaga 2pcs Wall Mount Gate Hinge for Farm Gate, 304 Stainless Steel Gate Hardware, One-Piece Molding Wall Plate Hinges, Chain Link Gate Hinge with 5/8' Hinge Pin (Screws Not Included)’.- I painted the cedar planks with one coat of ‘Kilz2 All-Purpose Interior/Exterior Primer’ followed by 3 coats of ‘Behr Premium Plus Exterior Semi-Gloss Enamel Paint and Primer’.Note: the Instructions state “Approximate assembly time with 1 person – 1 hr.’ This statement is misleading … with the painting I allowed 4 days .. one day between each coat.
