DESCRIPTION

Field of the Invention

The present disclosure reveals a gate with a rectangular tubing structure upon with slats are attached.

Background of the Invention

Gates for fences, in particular, wooden or wood like fences with vertical or horizontal slats are hung from posts with a plurality of hinges and over time sag, warp, or drag on the ground. To overcome the sagging and warping, additional trusses are added, which make the gate heavy, placing extra stress on the hinges, pulling the gate and/or fence post down, which can then lead to the gate dragging on the ground. The present disclosure reveals a gate with a light weight rectangular tubing structure upon with slats are attached. The rectangular tubing is light weight and the wall thickness of the rectangular tubing is thin enough so that slats can be attached structure with the use of self-tapping screws in a fashion common to the industry.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present disclosure reveals a gate with a framework, a plurality of slats, and a plurality of hinges. The framework is a light weight framework made from rectangular tubular material wherein the walls of the rectangular tubular material is thin enough so that a self-tapping screw can be drilled into any wall of the rectangular tubular material in a fashion common to the industry. The tubular material for the framework may also be of another geometric shape so long as the front face and the back face of the tubular material is parallel.

The slats can be attached to the front of the framework or pass through the rectangular tubing through slots created in the tubing. The slats are then able to be presented in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal pattern.

The structural integrity of the framework may be reinforced in the corners of the framework with additional rectangular tubing or braces. The structural integrity of the framework may also be reinforced with the use of horizontal, vertical or diagonal supports.

The gate may further comprise a latch to maintain the gate in a closed position.
