hello all,
i'm trying to find a outdoor/metal gate for the entrance of my walkout basement....the length is 65" and hight should be around 30-36 inches.....
obviously needs to be a swing gate that locks as well.

any idea where i can pick this up from?
i don't want to do special order.....i tried home depot and lowes but they only have the smaller 45 inch length ones.....

thought?

ps. i'm in Northern Virginia

Default Try a fence company......

Look in the yellow pages or local newspaper for fencing company. They typically have the ability to make up any type of gate you will want or most will also have the standard sizes in stock.

Fairly easy thing to make custom, price should not be that much more than your big box store, might even be less.

You want a 65" gate and you don't want to special order? Heck, I have to special order pants because I fit between two common sizes.

Not trying to put you down, but you could spend ages trying to find what you want, and your request makes little sense. A fence company or a metalsmith can make you up whatever you need quickly - just understand that special made stuff is no return, so get your instructions right and communicate properly with the fabricator.
