It is not an exact science. When I built mine I measured from where the post would be sitting on the hinge side to where I needed the post to sit so that the gate closer would hit it right. There are several different kinds of locking closers available and it depends on the type that you have. If it is a tad bit long that it ok bc usually you can adjust it somewhat. That is how I did it anyway and it turned out fine. You just dont what it too short then you wont be able to fit the gate. I assembled the gate first then took the measurements. Hope this helps you. Good luck.

You want to put up a horse fence 54' x 54' how many posts do you need?

How many posts you need for a fence 54 x 54 depends on how far apart you wish to place the posts. Usually posts are placed every 6 - 8 feet, but stallion paddocks frequently have posts placed every 4 feet apart. It's not clear to me how many linear feet your fence is, because the question is written as if the fence is 54 feet high and 54 feet long.

Getting a strong fence helps keep your lawn safe?

Keeping one's lawn safe from destruction is one of the primary purposes of getting a fence. It is important that everyone considers what type of fence they are going to get before they make the purchase though. They should consider getting a chain link fence in most cases. This is a very common type of fence, and it will not look out of place on most properties. It is also a good idea to keep in mind that payment per yard of fence is common, so carefully consider how much fence will be needed and which areas need to be covered.

If I purchase chain link fence wholesale, will I be able to install it myself?

Absolutely you can, but installing a fence is an arduous process. Keep in mind that the posts need to be dug deep into the ground and cemented into place. A number of fencing companies offer instructions on installation. See http://www.hooverfence.com/manual/chainlink/install1.htm for an example.


How is the chain in the center of a Trike put in place if it has come off?

Which ever is easiest..... Method 1.....place the chain completely in place on the rear cog. Place as much of the chain on the "top" of the front cog as possible. Now roll/pedal the bike forward and the chain should "walk" itself into place. Method 2...similar to 1, but place the chain entirely in place on the front cog and walk it into place on the rear.
