    I finally broke down and got an e-z gate (stainless steel). The gate feels like it weighs 1/4 of normal when opening or closing. It took about an hour to install. I would recommend either buying or making one of these back saving devises. Bob

    For the new members, I have a page on my website with pictures and instructions on how to make a spring assisted gate lift. I built this one about 3 years ago and it works great. I can lift this gate that is over 100 lbs. with one finger. Lots of guys have written saying they put this on their gates and like it. Check it out if interested.<p>----------<br>&lt;a href=&quot;http://pages.prodigy.net/eric.erickson/&quot;&gt;Eric@ELM&lt;/a&gt;<br>

    We purchased an EZ-Gate this year. It works great. We have a 5-ft. gate and it takes away 50% of the weight lifting the gate. Our model was $99.00, Good luck!<p>jerryslawnservice@home.com
