How to Measure Wooden Bifold Entrance Gates

Gate Width

1. Measure the Distance between the posts/pillars

2. To determine what clearance is needed to calculate your gate width, you must decide how you would like your gate hung. Please see below for the options:

Hinges

For our Bifold Split Entrance Gates, we'd recommend using Tee Hinges. Depending on the size of your gate, you'll need Medium or Large.

We'd also recommend using Drop Bolts and a Throwover loop for security and stability. For gates that are wider or heavier, drop bolts help hold one section securely in place while the other side is used for regular access. This reduces strain on the hinges and prevents sagging or movement due to wind or pressure.
