Adjust-A-Gate Steel Frame Anti Sag Impervious to Fade and Rust Adjustable Gate Building Kit with Patented Truss Cable System and Telescoping Bars

This kit came complete. Had everything even a very nice latch. I didn't use the hinges because I mounted it on wooden posts so I supplied my own leaf style steel hinges and mounted those with lag bolts into the posts and bolts through the steel gate frame. The hinges supplied were adequate but would have centered the gate in the opening and I wanted it butted up to the front of the posts. The frame is sturdy enough once you add your own 2 x 4's cut the correct lenth. I built and hung the gate frame prior to cutting the 2 x 4's so I new what the exact lenth was. It went together fairly quick and straightforward without much fuss. Some of the reviews complained of the supplied hinges not clamping tight enough to keep the frame from sliding down inside them. If this happens to you just put an extra screw into the frame above the hinge and that will prevent that from happening. I suggest completely assembling and hanging the gate including what ever material you are siding it with before putting those extra hinge screws in the frame. That way if you need to make height adjustments you can do easily. When you've tried it out and are happy it works easily the put the screws just above the hinges so it stays the height you wanted. After I mounted the cedar siding on mine I found out my sidewalk was slightly higher on one side and the gate would not clear it without scraping. Since I had improvised my own hinges and couldn't easily move them I had to remove some of the cedar boards and cut them 1/2 inch shorter at the bottom. I've had it up a few weeks now and it stll works perfect.

I cannot sing enough praises about the product. It's easy to install (would recommend you do it with 2 people), looks neat and I'm sure will last a long a time. I had an old double gate that was sagging and impossible to open. Used the kit to install new gates and it was super easy to do. Keep in mind that bolting in the hinge supports can be tough so have a few solutions in mind to screw the metal into the wood post.

Overall, this product was great and I'd buy it again. It really comes with everything you should need. I only used it for a 48" wide gate but saw how it's expandable and it would definitely work wider. You provide your own wood allowing it to match the style of the rest of your fence but gives a great, sturdy frame to build off of. It includes hinges, etc. I assembled the gate part in less than an hour.The instructions could use a little work but I figured it out easily enough. People complain about the hardware and everything worked great for me except the self tapping screws which where a PITA and eventually I had to drill a hole for them. Those are only used to attach the bar for the latch to the gate.The main issues I had were with the cable tensioner and the gate latch. The cable on the cable tensioner slipped almost right away (see photo) with the plastic sloughing off and I had to run to Lowe's to get a new cable clamp to remake the loop. Not a big deal since it was a 98 cent part, but a pain and my gate was much lighter and narrower than this kit is rated for so I doubt it would hold up on larger gates. It works great now. Also, the latch was pretty cheesy. It wouldn't latch when I shut the gate and was not "self latching" so you had to push down the bar each time. Once again, I got a replacement at Lowe's and swapped it out and it works much better.So there were a few little things (tension cable, latch, self tappers) which weren't perfect, thus the 4 stars, but overall it worked great. Even spending the extra $6 on replacement parts, I think this is a reasonably priced kit and is a great guideline for a gate. I am probably going to buy another to rebuild the other gate on the property. Also, compared to my wood gates, it's a lot stiffer and the bottom edge can't be pushed out by the dogs. I'd recommend it!

Overall I'm pleased with it. The instructions could have been more clear. It doesn't come with enough screws to use every hole on the rails when screwing in the 2x4. It is a pain to put together by yourself, especially if you do a double gate. I bought 4, 2 singles and 1 double gate. I ended up reinstalling the gate to swing out instead of in with the slope of the yard it worked better. The gate hinge works, but if your gate has pickets on it like mine just know you can't open it from the outside. I ended up trashing the latches and bought a latch system that works from both sides, despite that the product is solid.

This is the fourth time I have purchased this gate. I have built and installed four of these gates single-handed. They are easy to assemble. The hardest part was hanging the gate by myself because I built it, tested it, put it back on the ground and added the slats to it while on the ground, so that made it a little heavier to lift and hang. The instructions are amazing - well done whoever wrote those. I've had some of these gates for 6 years now and they look and work as well as the day Installed them. They are strong, and don't sag. The post that the hinges are affixed to might warp ever so slightly over time, making the gate droop ever so slightly to the latch side. All you have to do then is adjust the stainless still wire cable a bit and it will pull the gate back up into fully parallel to the ground. Great gate. Absolutely recommend.

Installed fairly easy. All hardware complete. The frame adjusts easily. So far so good.

Made the entrance gate very sturdy! Happy with purchase! Would buy again.

Easy to assemble - seems sturdy enough

After my gate broke in the winter wanted a stronger frame system. This fit the bill perfectly

Bought this came missing alot of partsNo one's helping terrible do not purchase
