SWING GATE KIT DETAIL

Chain Link Fence Gate Kits are 1-3/8" & 1-5/8" Frames. Posts are not included and are purchased separately. 5 ft, 6 ft, 7 ft, 8 ft and 10 ft heights have mid-rails.

The horizontal pieces are full length with gate corners. So 4 ft wide gate will have 46" wide pieces. After adding corner clamps the finished width will become 4ft.

Double gate spacing between posts, for example 8 ft wide: 48" + 48" + 2" hinge +2" hinge + 2" latch = Total 102"

Exact same principle is used for gates of all sizes in 1-3/8" and 1-5/8" Frame models, in Galvanized and Color coated gates.
