Proven Construction Methods
After three decades of building custom gates, we’ve refined every detail. These aren’t theoretical plans – they’re battle-tested designs that have withstood real-world conditions across thousands of installations.
The Science of Gate Longevity
Most DIY gates fail because builders don’t understand wood movement, proper bracing angles, or hardware placement. Our plans include:
- Calculated diagonal bracing positions
- Strategic hardware placement to prevent racking
