Buying Guide
- Confirm frame size: This corner fits 1-3/8″ O.D. pipe only. Use the matching size for all four corners of the gate leaf.
- How many corners? Most rectangular walk gates use four corners per leaf.
- When to choose aluminum vs. pressed steel: Aluminum offers rust-free durability and a clean look. Pressed-steel corners are another common option where heavier stamped steel is preferred.
- Square matters: Measure diagonals during assembly; equal diagonals indicate a square frame before hanging fabric.
