I am extending my side yard so that I can store my camping trailer on the side of the house instead of the garage. It would normally be an easy build by having two doors with some type of latch the goes into the ground to keep them closed. Both doors could swing open or closed depending on what I need to do.
My problem is I can only have the right side half of the gate swing open and closed. For this application, the gate will swing out towards the front of the house. The other side will not have room to swivel out. My wife has plants that I cannot have the gate hit to swing out and I cannot have it swing in as there will not be enough room to close it once I put my trailer there.
In the picture, the side that must be removable has the “R”. I could put a normal hinge system on the posts supports but then I would have to remove each bolt and hinge and take the gate off every time I want to use it. Not good. So I plan on being able to just lift out the "R" section and replace it when done.
Anyone have suggestions on how to make this easy? Or at least easier than making a normal gate and removing the hinges every time I need to use it?
Thanks, Dan
