How to surface mount garden gate?

Hey, looking for advice please, can this gate be surface mounted as there is not enough room between gate posts to inside mount? Thanks.

Re: garden gate fixing

Hello @ks1973 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your garden gate fixing. 

 

Can this gate be surface mounted as there is not enough room between gate posts to inside mount? In theory yes, but it all depends on how much space you have for the Jack 25NB Hot Dipped Galvanised Pipe Saddle which is the hinge for the gate. If surface mounted on the inside there must be enough room for pipe saddle hinge to be screwed into the post.

 

If you can provide us with the size of the posts and how far apart they are from each other, we can calculate if the post will fit.   

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

 

Eric
