With a double swing gate, your space requirements are halved as each gate panel will swing only 6\u2032.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Double swing gates can accommodate wider driveway openings than a single swing gate. The full weight of the material required to span the width of the driveway is shared between two posts, rather than one.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Opening Direction<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Single and double swing gates can open in either an inward direction or an outward direction. Inward is usually the best. With an inward direction, it is important to consider room for the gate to open as well as extra room for objects like a car behind the gate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most cities and towns have restrictions on outward opening gates. It is important to ensure the gate does not obstruct any sidewalk crossing your property or open into the street.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cost Differences<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A single swing gate will cost a bit less, as it requires almost half of the hardware (i.e. hinges, bolts, hinge posts, receiving posts) that would be required in a double swing gate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Double swing gates require more hardware, engineering, and installation time so they will cost more than a single swing gate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can learn more about SWi Fence\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/swiwyoming.com\/fences\/ornamental-steel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ornamental Steel<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> offerings on our website.
