travs69 is an unknown quantity at this point
Thanks for the reply. The 5 foot gate came from the fact that he has a mower that is just at 48" wide. He is fencing his whole yard (keep the kids/dogs in).

What is your thought on the 4x4 instead of a 2x4 for the hinge side support brace? The 2x4 would be lighter but is the 4x4 bracing needed?
