  • 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!

    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 👍

    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

    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.

    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.

    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

  • @PL-wj9tr
    @PL-wj9tr Před 3 lety +2

    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.

  • @TNickel555
    @TNickel555 Před 3 lety +1

    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.

  • @benmaltas2682
    @benmaltas2682 Před 3 lety +4

    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
