How Can I Install A Gate Between My House And Fence? Sign In/Join 
posted
Hi,
I want to make the side run of my house into a dog run. The house and fence make a barrier on 3 sides. I need to figure out how to install a swinging gate at the 4th end to seal the run off. I know I need to put 2 posts down and fill with concrete. The question is how to I get the gate to match my measurements? The opening from the house to fence is 6'8". It is this space where I need a gate. Any ideas?
Thanks

danis11, are you "really" asking for help, or are you just advertising the link to the farm fencing web site below? Confused

There are lots of helpful people on these boards, but we don't like our time to be taken advantage of. Advertising is not allowed btw.

I think it's hilarious that he's advertising a fencing company and then posts a question asking how to do it. Razz

No need to bother with references. Roll Eyes

The best thing we can do is not to click on their links.
Many of these "people" get paid a small amount for how ever many times the site gets traffic, that routes back from their posts.

Any "brand new" poster with a link to anything is suspect to me.

It's an Australian website, doubt they will get very much business from here.

No the company won't get much business, but the poster can get credit for every "hit" or traffic directed through them to this site link.
