  • I made a new entry gate for the garden. Turned out great! I also hung it on a T-Post. Below are the hinges you will need to do it.

    I like the pipe fence hinge working on a T post. Good idea

    Very good, this got us going on our gate. FYI the linked Amazon hinge for the T-Post is too big for the t-post. We found the right sized hinges at Home Depot. The hinges for the gate worked well without modification. Also we found that a regular chain link fence latch attaches nicely to the t-post to hold the gate in place when closed.

      @@grantimagesllc8720 I don't have a link, it was a generic part from Home Depot. We just tried parts out at the store until we found the right combination. We did find that attaching the hinge sideways to the t-post made it so we didn't have to modify the hinge.

      @Shelby Marie💖 The hardware was unmarked and came in generic unmarked boxes so I wouldn’t be able to tell you without going back to the store. I just had to spend a while trying different combinations of parts. Sorry not to be of more help. Good luck!!

    This is EXACTLY what I was looking for!! Thank you so so much:-)! We need to do this right away, replacing our 3' fence to a 5' or 6' fence as our boxer mix realized how to jump over to have a play date with our new neighbor dog!!! I was looking for something inexpensive and doable and this is it!! I truly appreciate you sharing your ideas and thoughts. Once done I'll share too:-)

    Thanks for the video. I have decided to make a gate on t post garden fence. I found some t post male hinges on Amazon as well as male ones that screw into the wood gate. I wasn’t sure what I was going to do for a latch and your simple hook gave me an idea. Thanks again for your video. All the best from north Texas. God Bless

    I am working with a much smaller suburban row-home type of a yard, but code mandates a fence must have a gate going to the alley, so this is perfect because I happen to have a roll of welded wire fencing, a handful of t-posts, and a yard in need.

    Thank you for this, I'm in the process of reseeding a slope that's eroding from our dogs wearing it down to dirt. I've circled the slope with 3' wire fence and was looking for a way to hang 2 gates, one at the top and one at the bottom for lawnmower access since our lawnmower shed is at the top of slope and our yard is at the bottom. Nice job, I think I'll paint mine too.

    Great video, but you kinda cheated on the latch since you attached it to the wood structure. :) What would you suggest for a latch if we only have t-posts?

    • @GetRealBaby
      @GetRealBaby Před 4 měsíci

      "Did you find a solution to having only a t-post to latch your gate to? My guess is to use something as simple as a zip tie on a second t -post, or a ground stake at the base of the gate that can hook up out of the way when opening and closing the gate.
      You have to forget about that little hooking device to come up with something creative and functional. My nephew suggested a colorful rope attached to the gate that can wrap around the t-post at the top.
      Lots of ways to do this, right? Good luck!

    • @WallyJ2K
      @WallyJ2K Před 4 měsíci +1

      @@WallyJ2K I'd like to get away from the 4x4 posts...too expensive with the cement that goes along with planting them in the ground, not to mention the work involved.
      I'm thinking of an all t-post fence with twisted wire, not welded wire, and bracing each corner t-post with an easy on/off 2x2": brace set at a diagonal to the t-post.
      We only want to keep out stray dogs and coyotes as well as raccoons, skunks, o-possums, and deer..

      @TheCookFamilyHomestead  Před 2 lety +2

      It depends what you're trying to keep out. This works perfect for deer and rabbits, although rabbits could get under the back gate I have. If you are trying to keep woodchucks or other critters that can dig under out, this would not be ideal. We use this strictly for deer mainly and some for rabbits. We have tons of deer here.

I'm putting hardware cloth under each raised bed to only let worms and beneficial insects through but nothing should be able to tunnel up. I'll probably use the 1/2" hardware cloth for the fence too.
