I just built a gate following this video. I thought he new what he was talking about, until the point in the video where he said he installed the angle brace backwards. Your comments were spot on. I used the T hinges because there was not enough room on the post for the other hinge. I agree with using the gravity latch. I was dumbfounded why he didn't simply shim the gate to the desired height before attaching the hinges. I learned to check out multiple videos before starting a project. It appears he left the backwards brace in place instead of correcting his mistake.

People are just picking on the fact that he explained how to do it properly and then proceeded to do it wrong. You don’t need a million dollar house to not want a gate that’ll sag in a year’s time.

I agree. He’s a young guy who’s building up a handyman business and taking on different types of projects. He never claimed to be a professional fence builder. He’s taking his time to show people how to do it themselves and save money. I think it looks fine. Plus, the reason I watched his video is because I paid $1500 for a fence and gate by a professional company and they didn’t put any brace on the gate, which now sags! So all the critics should know that the “pros” don’t necessarily do a better job!

Love the videos... At first glance I noticed that in his demonstration of the diagonal support goes from the bottom hinge to the top outer corner of the gate. What he built is the opposite. It shows the support going from the top hinge to the bottom outer corner.

I love the tips with the reveal and the strap hinges. I would never square my stuff off a concrete line but at least he measured corner to corner 🤣 the best part is the fact he explains the brace and does it backwards. I just started my own handyman business and I’m going to build my first gate tomorrow. I’ve built a million doors and hung a million doors I know gates are a bit different but It all looks pretty simple to me. I just wanted these professional tips and tricks before I took it on. I watched his video, then I watched yours. I’m so glad I saw yours pop up right under his 😂

My video is some what primitive and I have no teaching skills but I try, I wanted to hire a professional but I am retired and had to choose between a professional built board on board fence and paying the utilities this month. You are welcome to review what I have done although at my age I do not believe I will be able to build another fence in the future. Yes good fences make better neighbors

Interesting how he knew the difference of compression vs tension braces and still did it for tension. This is a problem in our area is handymen doing the fence work to make extra money and do it wrong most likely, instead of a fence professional setup that does it every day
