I Made Some Large Gates For A Driveway

- In this video I work on a commission to build some large garden gates for a driveway using pressure treated / tanalised timber from a local timber merchant, plus some untreated shiplap from a sawmill. The gates span over 4m in width and are around 1.7m high. I used half lap joinery at the corners of the frames, and floating tenons / dominos elsewhere.

Beautiful job. One tip. You can preserve wood using antifreeze, ethylene glycol. It's excellent for preventing mold and insect damage. It does require a topcoat to seal it in.
As an amateur with woodworker, i typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement czcams.com/users/postUgkxrYREG3-7f1Aqk9ams3ZESRNzGnfdUtyQ . Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness woodplans. Works i now work like a genius. That is great!
Blimey these are a proper set of gates.Great job so far.Looking forward to part 2.
Hi Keith
Several years ago I made a pair of gates similar to these but I jointed it with mortise and tenons. In filled with shiplap boards, after about 18 months I noticed the joints coming apart, actually it was splitting and the panels buckling. The panels had swollen more than I’d thought and it was just pushing the uprights apart. I ended up taking the panels out, strengthening the joints and then over laying the gates with feather edge boards. Problem solved. Beware because those panels are so dry they might expand more than you think, fingers crossed they don’t. Great job 👍
I love watching your process and hearing your thought process for problem-solving.
They look pretty good so far. I'm looking forward to the next part.
I've been a builder for many years and have seen quite a fair bit of sheds. The plans in ryan's package czcams.com/users/postUgkxB7IXYxLzb_Ichhe45zM3Im5xfEiSp9vB have some of the nicest looking sheds i've seen in a while.
Loving the design on these heave duty gates!👌🏽
Looking forward to part two.
Awesome job, mate 👍🏽
Nice looking set of gates. Look forward to seeing them installed.
Great. Look forward to seeing them installed 👍
woow huge work! Looks already nice. Looking forward to seeing part 2
Great looking gates, mate. Looking forward to part 2. All the best.
Great job! Nice looking gates, and well explained. Thanks for sharing!
Nice! I've made my gates last year, during first lockdown, I've also used some gravelboards, but as an infill on metal frame! Can't wait to see the final result on this one! Greetings from Mildenhall in Suffolk!
looking forward to seeing the next video , it will undoubtedly become a solid gate , grtzz from Belgium !
This is one of those videos that you'd have no idea was so interesting until you watched. Good work sir!
Great work Keith 👍built to last. Look forward to seeing them finished 🙂👍
Great work! Can't wait for the next video!
Looks awesome. Great tip, making those notch holders for gate so you can work on it upside down. Well done. Cant wait to see the rest.
Great, simple but very informative video. Thanks for making and posting it
Great looking set of gates them Keith. Well done!
This is beautiful work. Well done
those are some really industrial gates! The hinges are going to have to be extra heavy duty! They'll last a lifetime! fantastic work.
Love the Design and wonderful video . So beautiful
Absolutely beautiful job
You're a skilled man, great work!!! Gates are beauts
Doin a great job Keith, should look great when finished Stay Safe Mate !!!.
Those gates look super strong Keith. Great job and great video mate
Quality work. Great job!
Quick tips for anyone installing posts into ground from my experience - always use postsavers: they are attached by heating up the tar inside which protects the lower ground level parts from rotting. Post Crete is best choice for keeping it strong
Amazing. Great job!
really nice design Keith, looks sharp
Excellent work!
Proper job. A small chamfer often aides in hiding small imperfections in the joinery or timber on outdoor projects.
Nice gates mate always amazes me how much mess half laps make with bits on floor. That was a right result with the treatment tub
Only just catching up with this; great job on the gates Keith, and glad the squares came in handy - square enough is all I've ever aspired to... 😆👍
Cheers Peter, me too 🤣
Nice job Keith they look like good strong gates 👌
They look Great
Lots of people think building a gate is pretty simple, but as you’ve shown you better understand structure and how wood behaves or your gate will soon become scrap. Nice work.
Oh these will be scrap very soon!!
Ryan is a great chippy. Love his work and will be copying it for 2 large gates this summer 👍
Brilliantly made, cheers from California.
Lovely job 👏
Nice, nice work, well done!
Looking forward for the second part
Great gates and great video too 👍
Great video love the gates
Great work!!!! Very talented
Looks good Keith
Thank you for sharing your expertise
Your timing on this video is perfect for me, my next commission job is for a side entrance gate - I may nick the design and show them as the open top section looks great and a makes it look less 'woody'. Fantastic video too, thanks for sharing.
Cheers Alistair
The door looks great 👏
Nice set of gates, should be good for a lot of years.
Great looking gates. I think you have inspired me to build a small garden gate for my front garden.
Great 👌
Really great job
Great work there 👍👏🙃😺
Very nice build, well made. I've quit using polyurethane glue for it's short open time and the cleaning I have do after. Construction adhesive is strong enough if not stronger than poly glue, great for outdoor use and with long open time of use.
Beautiful work bud
Great work.👍🏼
Superb!
That is a beautiful gate. Excellent construction. Do yourself a favor and build about 4' of fence on each side of those gate posts to help support them. Again... beautiful gate.
Dominos are such a time saver, one day I'll give in and buy the machine. I was close recently after cutting 24 mortise & tenon joints for a project.
Those look massive.
Thank you for showing the drawing to understand how to angle the supporting diagonal
Love your videos. Thank you
Beautiful work...love it! Craftsmanship is underrated in this fast paced modern world. The most dangerous thing in this world is not A.I. it is men that have little or no practical skills.
very nice work
Large gates! This is gate installation heaven.
Great video
GREAT VIDEO. VERY COOL. THANK YOU!
Good looking gates & nice work, but wow they do look heavy!
Excellent!
Nice looking gates
nice work.......artist work...greetings from croatia
I absolutely love the clear oil based treatments. Seem to protect the timber much longer than fence paint does. I use the brand Barrettine. Can’t fault the stuff. By the way those gates look great
Old engine oil for ever lasting, my father in law had a old 6 wheel long base transit that he yearly brushed engine oil to the arches seals under the body that would be prone to attack from the elements. He never had rust whatsoever. Its now owned by someone else and very sort after. Sorry for side tracking from wood but any old oil is the best treatment.
Brilliant informative video
Good stuff bud 👍
Now that's a solid gate
Really good job there mate. I did a poundland version on a smaller scale a few years ago, and to echo the comments of others in here it was the posts that let me down in the end, though of course if that should ever happen to your project you can always detach the gates and redo the posts, so hardly fatal to the excellent gates you've built.
Great project and nicely presented!
There are two generic challenges for these kinds of projects: (1) Getting the right material and (2) having the proper tools ...
The important third (or first) is the skill to do it, nicely demonstrated here.
Ear projection when vanishing, love it
great video dude 10/10
Hi Keith. I like the depth stop cut achieved using the mitre saw. That's a great fool proof method using spacers to position the gate
middle rail. Oak shop made dominoes, brilliant. Those gates look really substantial and heavy to lift, rather you than me Keith lol. Tony
Nice work and so good to see someone getting the bracing correct!!. All I would say re treated timber from 40+ years experience treat every cut hole drill etc. Yes maybe time consuming but think of the timber, before any cuts or holes being in a bubble every time you brake that seal treat it and keeping doing it as it only needs one unprotected joint to allow the rot to get in and hope you also treated the shiplap all faces, as you did for the ends? before fixing. Sorry for long comment but hope it helps all and again good job.
Yeah I showed treating them in the video
Fineeeeeee joinery 👌
Nice tools
Cracking build, the gates are looking great so far, shame about the lack of pressure treated wood.
Nice video.
I like your little van!
It's on it's last legs unfortunately
Keith, FYI, Sadolin Supadec is available in a several colours and is ideal for exterior joinery and especially suitable for rough sawn timber.
I built a gate sort of like this, but somewhat larger, about 25 years ago from Douglas fir. I put my frame together with steel truss plates on both sides, pounded in with a 16 pound sledge. I was very surprised at how rigid the frame was, including torsional twist, or lack thereof. It didn't sag a bit in the five years I lived there, but can't say how it held up over time.
As a bespoke joiner I would recommend that anything exterior needs to have mortice and tenon joints and woulnt recommend that fizzy glue I would be using cascamite as I find it is a better glue but a great go at it
very nice
Great work, Keith. Thanks for the tips about bracing. I wonder if you could expand on this in a future video for newbies like me? - Actually, forget that, just watched it again and think I get it now.👍🏼😬
Cheers Mandy 😀
Look amazing. I have only ever built something 1/4 of the size.
The gates look great, a real sturdy set. I had the same problem with shiplap recently, only wanted a few pieces to put on the shed. 1st world problems aye!
Cheers James
I make quite a few large double gates and I would always do a horn about and inch and a half on each style both top and bottom and I would also do a traditional stub tennon for the rails
I lost it at the bum censor. Was not expecting that 😂 Ah, yes "Don't ask me how I know"... my personal favorite slang for "I've absolutely made this mistake before" LOL. Gate looks good so far!
It's a bit of a long journey, but I could use some gates like those!
really wish I had seen this 6 months ago! Would have avoided me making a few schoolboy errors! Nice work
Gates look good with you on the glue same with the expanding foam all ways end up with black hands 👍
