How to build a dog gate for inside house?
-
I've been doing research on baby and dog gates and have found they are incredibly expensive, so I'm looking to build my own. I'm wondering whether I should use wood or PVC pipe (as far as a puppy and possible chewing goes). And a plan to build a cheap gate. I'm not looking for anything fancy by any means, just a gate that can block a door way. I'm thinking about maybe a door in between it, just so I don't have to always step over it, but I'm sure that may make it expensive. Does anyone have any plans that matches my request? And is PVC or wood better as far as durability, usage, and safety.

Answer:
No they aren't. 30-50 bucks at walmart and you can get a baby gate with a door in it.

Actually, there are often metal baby gates on Craig's List, at church sales, and at recycling sheds. You might even look at one of the children's equipment resale shops, or the Salvation Army. They have a mechanism that latches and allows you to step through it. Rather than reinvent the wheel, just look for one second hand. When you install it, it will be far more sturdy if wooden strips are screwed into the molding forming a channel into which the gate slides down, so the dog(s) cannot lean on it and push it over. Stick with the metal gates - wood and plastic get chewed very quickly. I have a metal gate that has been in my kitchen door for 20 years - same one! It came fro the dump...
