Answer This Question

A:  Hi Tara and thanks for reaching out. Yes, you can cut our HOFT 71’’ Gate Kit to your desired height, using a circular or miter saw with a carbide blade.The Gate Channels & Slide Cappings can be easily cut to any desired height, however you must cut the bottom end (see arrow on Gate Channels) so they fit perfectly with the 44’’ HOFT Railing Post Kits. This Gate Kit is designed for a maximum width of 42’’. Thank you and please have a wonderful day. HOFT Team.

      Q:Do I have to use the spacers? Are there clips/spacers that allow for less or no room between the boards?
      by|Feb 26, 2024
      1 Answer
      Answer This Question

      A:  Hi tps7 and thanks for reaching out. There is no problem with using no spacers, but please note that our spacers also act as nails. The only spacers we have available are the ½’’. Having ½’’ spacers in between boards will also allow wind to go through and will reduce wind resistance. It is possible to put the boards one on top of each other but please make sure that the top 3-4 boards have the spacers to ensure a sturdier assembly, and for wind flow. NOTE: the ½’’ spacers between boards reduce the wind resistance. If you are using a tongue in groove, then you do not need spacers. It is important to use spacers if our product is used as a guardrail on an elevated deck. You may discard if you are using our posts as a concealing screen or other. If you are building a fence, we definitely recommend you use our section brackets included in each kit on the top last board to solidify your installation. Thank you and please have a wonderful day. HOFT Team.

            Quality yes - Value no
            Kit comes only with 2 channels for the birds , no hinges or lock . No posts either . You need to figure out hinges and lock on your own . No guidance or recommendations to any manufacturer.

            Hi Bear,
            We are sorry that you experienced difficulties with our Gate Frame Kit. Unfortunately, we do not sell locks and hinges and we try to make it as clear as possible on our Gate Frame Kit product page (see first bullet point). Locks and hinges come in a wide range of quality and use (weight, lock, key, etc.) so we allow customers to choose what most fits their needs.

              The pictures are deceiving
              The pictures and videos are deceiving. The pictures show more than 2 uprights but the parts list only shows quantity of 2 U channels. Some one would need to buy additional expensive hinges, lock and handle. Made mistake purchasing this product as the cost could sky rocket to $396.00 or more. Note I went by the parts list for the gate assembly to write this review and also the picture of the frame kit. Hoft 71 in. Aluminum for Horizontal Boards Gate Frame Kit Black.

                Do not buy!
                It includes no hinges or gate kit, nor any instructions on what equipment you’ll need/would be compatible. Because this particular gate has unique proportions and combines wood and metal, the spacing for the hinge and gate plates and the types of screws you use, is incredibly important. However, they provide no guidance and ignore any question pertaining to methods and materials FAQs, leading me to believe that they put no thought into the product and have no idea how to installed it either.

                Hi, we are sorry that you experienced difficulties with our HOFT Gate Frame Kit. To determine the spacing between the posts and the gate frame (left and right), you must follow the instructions stated in the manufacturer's installation manual for the hinges and locks that you purchase. We cannot tell you the distances that are written in the manufacturer's hinges and locks manual as they may differ from one manufacturer to another.
                Thank you for the comments, we are always looking for new ways to improve our customer experience.
