 Double
off-set Garden Gates.
When there is an overall width that exceeds what is comfortable for a
single gate and yet less than what is required for an equal double gate, a
number of options are available. Here, we utilize the Double Off-Set
(seen also in G-4 ). The right-side wood
gate is fixed in place with a cane bolt, with the wider, operable
gate latching to the smaller gate. This would be a solution to consider
for openings of 60", where two 30" gates moight seem a little
narrow.
-- Another option is to use a single-span gate. Gates beyond 42"
in width default to 2-1/4" thickness.
-- A third option is to set two 4x4 posts to each side of a centered
gate, flanked by narrow panels to each side, as seen in G-32.
