As the boys got bigger and smarter, one of them figured out how to pull the pin that locks the gate. I changed the pin idea to a bolt. I placed an insert nut in the hole and then used a bolt that screws into the insert nut to lock the gate shut. I think it will be quite awhile before the boys figure out/have the ability to unscrew the bolt (LOL). Here is a link to an insert nut similar to the one that I used. www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-1-4-in-20-Zinc-Plated-Insert-Nut-4-Pack-801884/204274222?MERCH=REC-_-searchViewed-_-NA-_-204274222-_-N

By then, the boys will easily be climbing over it.

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for!!!!! The shiplap look and rolling ease for my dogs on my front porch opening!! Thank you so much for this great rolling gate!

Excellent job. Thanks for sharing. I personally would have put slats vertically to prevent climbing. But very nice. Looks great.

Yep, that would have been harder to climb. Our boys never climbed over!

The first diy gate video I came across with actual directions and not over manufactured. Thank you!

ABSOLUTELY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR, FOR MY DOGS! THANKS IT'S PERFECT!

This is great! We would have to make ours taller and the boards would have to be really close together as our boys would be climbing over it 😬

Been looking for something like this for a long time!! Now we can seperate wider spaces! Love it

Thank you for making this diy video! I made a taller one for my dogs. It works perfectly!

Thank you! Just built a rudimentary version of this for our lab puppy! We were racking our brains on how to secure the gate, the L bracket idea is amazing!!!!! Thanks again!

Looks great! Wish I could do this but my lil 1 year old is a climber.

It is a good solution for doggie gate too! I'll make mine taller for my dog is tall. Thanks for good simple idea, I like not having to worry about hinges! This could be done even on regular width doorways too! Love the idea!

Ok I love this!!!! But I need one for an outdoor space to keep my grandkids from falling down the stairs. I want to know how to split it and make two that lock in the middle so when coming and going you can unlock half and go through then lock it up... I guess I need to brainstorm how to attach it to the porch railing???? Any idea?? Thanks

You could also design this gate to work for dogs as well.

Could you please share a link to those L/U brackets you have used there please ?

Love it, thanks

Horizonal running boards that low is not going to hold them through my experiences....I like the idea and diy design though! I would just make it taller with vertical planks to not create a ladder for them. My 1 year old would be over that in a min. Dude thinks he is going to Ninja warrior and/or prepping for shtf

Great

I wonder if smaller horizontal mounted casters would work instead of weather stripping with screw.

What about using barn door roller guide for the top instead of the L arm bracket?

@projectswithsteve

That could work, although I don’t think you need something that beefy.

Looks like in just a few months they will easily climb it

The horizontal boards would provide climb over assistance.

My gate wants to lean toward the wall at the top and “walk” out at the bottom every time I use it. It won’t vertically straight. Any ideas?

@projectswithsteve

Ай бұрын

Where I have the brackets on the wall to create a guide for the gate, I used foam weatherstripping to create a spacer so that the top does not lean toward the wall. I don’t have an issue with the bottom kicking out. Maybe try a different wheel that has more grip to it. Good luck.

It looks like a baby ladder 😂 have they figured that out, yet?
