12 foot field gate, how to stop it drooping?
I have a 12 foot wooden field gate, it's about two years old, it seems to be a bit 'cheap and cheerful' and over the years I've had to use wood glue and long screws where some of the angled pieces are attached to the horizontals. Despite doing this it continues to very slowly droop over the course of a few months.
What can I do to strengthen it, or is my best option to buy a better 12 foot gate?
If the latter, any recommendations please on a decent manufacturer?
