      Definitely will get a lot more twist without a support
      Would recommend a support frame always

    Nice tutorial thank you. You need a tool belt 😄

    Do you think a gate frame is necessary? Couldn’t the colorbond support its own weight?

    • @Dqcdiyandsupply
      @Dqcdiyandsupply  4 місяці тому +1

      It is very flimsy without a frame and will twist very easy definitely recommend the frame to hold the hinges and latch as well for extra support

      Thanks mate! I’ve got some pretty handy Bluetooth headphones/noise cancelling headphones but just aren’t wearing them in the video so I can hear myself speak and think ! Appreciate your concern though !

    Is it possible to install a deadlock into colorbond gates? What about letterboxes?

    • @Dqcdiyandsupply
      @Dqcdiyandsupply  6 місяців тому

      @@thedownunderverse both are possible to do. A dead lock would require a “lock box welded in to work and the letter boxes are pretty easy to install as long as it is the right type of letter box.
      I’ll send a link to the letter boxes

    Turn the bolts around so they grab the face of the brick, not the hollow part of the brick with your installing you should’ve got see channels for the gate also by yourself to belt. Overall the documentary wasn’t too bad.😂😂😂😂

      Thank you for the constructive criticism mate.
      What do you mean by turn the bolts around ?
