Hello,
I am having my driving way extended (widen). Part of the extension will have concrete pour through the side of my house. I am looking to have a swing gate on the side of the house about 10 ft. wide (currently there is a block wall and a 3 ft gate).
Since the concrete guy will be pouring Friday, I don't have much flexibility to get quotes for the iron gate. If I have them install square metal posts on each end and later want to install (build my own) wooden swing gates, would lag screw work well?
I have built gates but the posts have been wood. Another option is put vinyl post over the metal post which I have done.
Thanks,
TT
