    Rear gate on trailer: Custom panel gate

    Hello,

    I have been needing to build a gate on my trailer for awhile now but, I couldnt decide how I wanted it. There are the regular choices of a ramp or doors but I decided to go with a panel. I like doors for what I do but, I dont know how to weld yet so I came up with this panel idea. I just used a pallet, a couple of 2x4s, and 4 sliding locks and it turns out to work pretty good. The sliding locks go through wood and metal so, the panel stays in place well. Its actually pretty quick to take on and off and sure beats tying everything down with straps.
