We now have four of them, two on each gate, and it still gets battered. I agree - When you watch the wind buffet the gate, most of the movement occurs at the top (DUH!) because it's not supported there.<br /><br />Your suggestion would kill it with a brick!drjimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05647484115197408897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901205574058136834.post-43304112390884946402018-04-17T18:14:30.918-07:002018-04-17T18:14:30.918-07:00I'd call the dude who installed the gate and a...I'd call the dude who installed the gate and ahve him fix it so it is done right.

Install a smaller diameter pipe inside extending to near the top of the gate. Secure that pipe loosely with U-bolts. Drill a hole in the pipe below the top U-bolt that will accept a pin. When you want the gate open, lift the pipe and hold it out of the way with the pin. The extra bracing may keep the wind from damaging the gates.
