Need DIY Advice: How to Fix Leaning Dual Gate Fence That Won’t Stay Shut
The fence is old. The double gate sags hard to one side. The latch doesn’t catch. The wood is gray and dry. One post may be loose. Maybe both. Hinges look tired. I want to fix it. Make it stand straight. Make it shut clean. Not sure if this is even the right way to frame a gate like this. Open to reworking it if there’s a better, more solid way to build it. Photos show what I’m dealing with. Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated. https://preview.redd.it/c6vs4p72ayqe1.jpg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=92108cebe4331f6696871cfd84c7f8517f041794 https://preview.redd.it/u624ck72ayqe1.jpg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f181de0161559d21915857f65a8d9c7b5451e118 https://preview.redd.it/c0ld7k72ayqe1.jpg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ecb08a2d0599b57b944e613c1e0edc8f81657a97 https://preview.redd.it/o4jvtl72ayqe1.jpg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9b9ee250170fd290e752e16e9d160e8e52ea8645 https://preview.redd.it/pmhrbk72ayqe1.jpg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c7bdbd9c5eec3ea480dd441c1a8af8d26dc69815 https://preview.redd.it/czdnik72ayqe1.jpg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e561f7d9b55dfe50bacdeddb7c669274c137d4b3 https://preview.redd.it/he0euj72ayqe1.jpg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5c6a56c23949fdf408ac7258f1c6ea3bc6f4bd12 submitted by /u/H00O0O00OPPYdog0O0O0 [link] [comments]
