A Gate for all Seasons



















This photo shows more do-it-yourself improvements around our Pusch Ridge home.  This low walled in space housed electrical equipment for air conditioning Which is critical in this hot Arizona climate. To cut down on the motor noise, hide equipment from view and keep unauthorized persons out of the area as a safety measure, I designed and built a gate using sheet aluminum and copper over a square steel tube frame.  I extended the height of the wall with saguaro ribs and matched it with similar material on the gate top.  A lockable latch, high enough to be out of reach of little fingers finished the job.
