Double Leaf Chain Link Swing Gate

A double leaf chain link swing gate is often referred to as a double drive gate. This is true even if it doesn’t cross a driveway at all. Double drive gates are essentially two single leaf gates that meet in the middle, without the need of a supporting post.

When both gate leafs are opened, double gates provide much more clearance than single leaf gates. For residential properties, double drive gate widths will be determined by the width of your driveway. If a double drive chain link fence gate is required to gain access to a backyard, normal widths are 8′ and 10′ wide.

Most vehicles, trailers, and lawn equipment will have no problem fitting through a 10′ wide opening. However, larger double drive gates are common as well if required.
