Very different and can't see any way around using braces it would oscillate with out them
Yes, not just for the distortion during hot dip ,, this will actually flex before they where fitted in just being lifted from the bench.Very nice braces are small enough to not bother me in fairness there needed..
kind of don’t wanna admit it but the colour is nice and looks the part
Kent- I very much like your design.
I do have some comments that I wanted to mention- I hope that you don't take these the wrong way.
I think that such a contemporary design should have all welds ground flush. The braces could have been slotted into the rectangular tubing, then face welded and ground down- no need for awkward filet welds. The gate frame wall brackets could have been made only on the inside of the gate, leaving the front with a cleaner look. I don't know if you could have used adjustable hinges, but the gate would look better with an even gap on either side.
I really think that your design is cool and contemporary and these small detail tweaks could make them even cooler! Thanks for posting your project.
