This gate is old, not sure how old. We are trying to figure it out. Dad purchased the land in 1972 from his uncle who was raised on the land. Dad remembers this gate was there back in the 50's when he was a kid so we assume the gate is more than 60 years old, who knows how old it really is. Here is the new gate. Thanks to my 2 cousins for making it for us! We couldn't be any happier! My Dad is not capable to go to his ranch anymore so it's nice to have cousins do such a wonderful job for our family and ranch!

Looks great.
You might have to put a turn buckle on the old corner posts pretty soon. But its pretty easy, hardest part is done.

I still have 2 of the old style, they are tough to handle when you use a cane to walk.
