XCEL - Black Steel Anti-Rust Fence Gate - Sharp End Pickets - 4ft W x 5ft H - Easy Installation Kit, for Residential, Outdoor, Yard, Patio, Entry Way, 3-Rail Metal Gate

After reading the instructions this was easy to put together. It does require a little muscle because their are no predrilled holes in the metal. But other than that it was super easy. It’s very sturdy and looks great!!

We purchased this hopeful it would work as a gate for the "gangway" between our house and our immediate neighbor. We live in an old St. Louis neighborhood and the houses are right next to one another with just about a 5' path between.I'd received some bids from fencing contractors, two of whom said they specialized in installing such gates in the city and didn't get any quotes for less than $2,000 to install something as simple as this gate. After a ton of searching online, I figured I'd give this a try.It arrived pretty quickly. Much of the paint was scratched on the larger posts upon arrival, but that didn't bother me too much (but it hasn't started rusting yet either ; talk to me a year from now about this). It was very easy to assemble the initial gate structure. If you don't already have one, a cordless impact driver and a deep-well 3/8" socket/driver will be your friend here.Setting the posts into concrete was more challenging and took me several hours. The included wedge anchors for setting the post flanges in concrete are really cheap looking and seem undersized. I purchased other, more substantial ones. Also, the post flanges are just short little things the posts set over the top of. It would add a ton of stability, at least for my application, if they were designed differently (like longer).Also, sourcing brackets to attach the post edges to the masonry walls on either side of the gate was something of a challenge, but I think I've got that figured too.Overall, this seems like a good product at a fantastic price. I think it's going to work out as well as I could have hoped upon ordering.

Loved it. I needed to fit a smaller opening so I cut the three cross bars and cut off one spear width wise. Whatever your final gate width is - add 3" and that the distance between posts. Dug and sunk and concrete in posts installed. Great working finished product. Would recommend. Will see how it lasts in long run.

I gave it 5 stars all around, the assembly was easy For its normal size but I customized the gate to fit a 53” wide x 36” opening, it came great, the only thing I wasn’t happy about was the fit of the gate post over the floor mounting plates. The post were sloppy and I had to wedge shims between the post and the plates vertical shaft, I also set numerous self tapping screws to secure the post plum. The gate looks great

This door look good but when you try to install the hardware necessary a lot of the self drilling screws just don’t bit even if you go slowly by hand. I called the company, they know, they know it could be a problem but they basically told me that it is my fault. Their advice , go to the hardware store and by bigger crews!I my opinion the thread of the screws should be coarse and not fine. Just be careful

Fence seems to be decent quality. Contacted. Make sure if you are attaching to concrete that the flanges are available for purchase. Contacted XCEL the first time they said look on Amazon. They weren't there. Contacted them again and said please send me the link, they are not there. They said oh yeah, they are not available for purchase and we don't know why. They said they would send some out. I received them three days later and just checked to see if they were there. They were now on Amazon since I told them. They were $20 cheaper on Amazon than what they charged me to have them shipped. That's just poor customer service if you ask me.

Very impressed with the sturdiness of this gate and the ease of assembly. The finished product is much nicer looking then welded gates I have elsewhere on my property. When I had some questions for the Company they were very easy to reach and wonderful to deal with. I highly recommend this product and will definitely purchase from them again.

I bought this because I needed to create a custom size gate. I could not find a 42 inch wide gate that was 36 inches tall -- Okay, this gate is advertised as 42 x 5 feet -- but you can make your own custom gate with the parts. One flaw in this unique system self assembly kit -- the corner connecters can break easily. I assembled this gate and when I tightened one of the corner connectors I heard a snap sound-- the flange completely broke making the connector useless. Fortunate for me I was not constructing a gate of the original height but a shorter gate and I didn't need all six of the connectors supplied -- I only needed 4 so it all worked out. I would buy this product again and recommend it to others but if you are making the gate as advertised keep an eye out when you tighten the connectors (not sure how to prevent it frankly) -- you may have to ask customer support for a replacement connector if your's breaks like mine did. I have three picture of the connector so you can see how it failed. This product allowed me to make a beautiful custom size gate for our backyard garden area so if the flange wouldn't have broke I would have given it a 5 +but need other customers to know the facts when purchasing.
