Easy , Simple and it WORKS

Would Recommend

If you need a gate, from a little 4 ft walk thru or a 6 ft. gate , buy this! My disable husband was able to build our gate in about an hour. It opens and closes just fine, is VERY sturdy and good as if we had hired a pro. Parts assemble are simple to follow and all you need in addition are the slats and couple of 2x4.

Simple to construct all purpose gate

Would Recommend

As long as you are willing to read the simple instructions, measure twice so you cut once this is a fence gate for you. Take your time and enjoy making something yourself that will last for years.

Great Gate Frame

Would Recommend

I am very happy with this gate kit. Because I was installing an outswinging gate I had to improvise a bit with the fence/gate structure to not have a gap around the hinges, but this was not unmanageable. I would repeat something I noticed on other reviews that the included screws are inadequate. I used other exterior grade wood screws which worked just fine. Overall this kit provides a sturdy lightweight gate frame and assembles easily. I will definitely use it again for my next gate projec...

Adjust-A-Gate

Would Recommend

I was building a picket fence for my back yard so I headed down to Lowe’s and picked up the gate kit. I put it together fairly easily and seemed to be a sturdy product, however my fence shifted and the tension on the gate loosened so now it is almost impossible to open. It’s a great product in a pinch but in the future I will look around for another option.

Amazing, easy to install

Would Recommend

Worth the buy. Saves so much time in building your own frame. It take about 20 min to install and is super easy! It also looks great and swing good without any binds! Amazing product!

Adjust a gate is user friendly

Would Recommend

Just make sure you follow the instructions and measure correctly and you will have no problem. A second pair of hands is very helpful.

Works ok

Would Recommend

Gate is fairly easy to assemble Instructions are easy to comprehend You have to watch for the turnbuckle holes and get them right. The gate length is adjustable We made ours 5’. The gate does sag a little even after you retighten the turnbuckle. I would use this product again

Awesome Gate but add 2 more 2x4s

Would Recommend

The gate was very easy to assemble and came with all the metal parts. I would recommend adding two extra 2x4s though to make it easier to mount the fence pickets. What I did was cut the two 2x4s like the instructions called for and assembled the gate per the instructions. Then I measured the outside distance between the vertical metal supports and added an 1/8" to each side and cut two more 2x4s to that length. I screwed the new 2x4s to the frame and then added all my pickets. Without the ex...
