Ratings & Reviews for Merchants Metals 4-ft H x 10-ft W Galvanized Steel Drive-thru Chain Link Fence Gate

Fencing made easy

Was looking for a double gate wide enough to be able to drive a truck, 4 wheeler or a lawn mower through. Lowe’s had exactly what we were looking for! It’s sturdy, looks nice and works great!

Drive Way Gate

Good looking product that was simple and easy to install-

Sturdy

These are sturdy well built gates. Not like my old gates that twisted and wobbled. Nice strong construction. Heavy duty chain link fence too. The rounded corners are nice. My old ones had square corners that were sharp. They were quite easy to install in about an hour.

Drive gate

Replaced a gate I have had for over 25 years perfect fit good price

10'x6' chain-link drive gate

This gate is well made but needs a simple modification to work as designed. The gate fabric pulls the two vertical rails so tight that they bow in between 3/8" and 1/2" halfway up from the bottom. When installed the space between the gates halfway up is too great for the gate latch to work properly [with gate posts 10' apart as specified]. To correct this problem purchase one 1-3/8" top rail and cut 2ea. 54-1/8" rail sections. Force them into the gates halfway up between the vertical side ra...

Comes with 3 latches

The previous reviewer stated that it does not come with latches, so I ordered one. But it came with one attached to the gate, one with the hardware, and a second kind of closing feature where a long pin goes through two gate attachments. What it did Not come with was 2 sets of gate attachments that hook the gate to the pole. It only had 2 when it should have had 4. And the poles have to be the fat kind, it can't be the same width as the metal used on the gate because the fastener's won't fit. I ...

Great Gate, But Frame Hinge Openings Too Small

I bought this gate a few days ago. When I went to hang it on the post hinges I had, I found that the opening in the frame hinges that came with the gate were too small and the gate does not come with its own post hinges. The frame hinges have 1/2" openings, whereas my post hinges have 5/8" pins. I had to drive 25 miles back to the store to buy a separate gate hardware set.

Too easy for 45 lb dog to escape

My fence did not come with 2 collars for the tension rod to slide through, only one. I called the manufacturer and they shipped another one out for me, without the bolt to attach it. My dog escaped multiple times so I had to put a board in front of the gate and tie it on with bungee cables to stop her, needless to say it looks tacky.

Good gate for the money

Nice and sturdy, doesnt hang down like I thought it would. Metal tension bars were warped a little and various dents and dings on both gates but nothing major, may have been from shipping. Great gate for the money, but the rounded corners looks a little odd with a square-cornered chain link fence. Don't forget the mounting hardware!
