Lay square gate frame over the top of diagonal and scribe

Be sure your diagonal does not exceed 45 degrees. If you have a wide gate such as a drive through gate or a big swing gate then put a vertical board at the halfway or 1/3 mark and then install multiple 45 degree braces

Build your frame of your gate. Place your diagonal board across your frame and mark with a pencil. Done. Don’t need any calculator to get your angles. Good Luck !!!

Ahhh yes..I put my brace in the right direction. I used a trig calculator and found my angles and length but it didn't come out as good as I hoped but made it work.

Thank you for the video! Amateur question...once you've got everything cut at the right lengths and angles.... what's the best way to nail or screw it together?

@RonniesWorkshop 3 ай бұрын

I used pocket hole screws and glue. I placed them facing the gate boards.

You did it wrong the cut should be on the bottom not the side

@treeamigo8447 Ай бұрын

It's stronger on the side

Did you even pay attention? He explained that the downard force gets transfered directly toward the hinge instead of down against the bottom board. It creates the least amount of downward leverage.
