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. Ghis would be a solution
to consider for openings of 60", where two 30" gates moight
seem a little narrow.
-- Another option is 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.
