In this video, I walk you step by step through the process of building and installing a wood fence gate using redwood. This same process will also work on cedar fences. Really, you can build a fence out of any material you want, but typically redwood or cedar are used.

A key feature that I discuss is how to install a diagonal support so the gate won't sag over time. I also share my recommended hinges that make the installation quite a bit easier and more secure.

This is the best and the simplest method for building a wood fence gate. I hope you enjoy it.
