Abstract

A system and method for single-handedly hanging a gate on a gate post. The system comprises a pair of A-frames, each comprising a pair of legs hingedly attached at an apex. Each of the legs has a stabilizing foot on its free end. A flexible and length-adjustable hanger is suspended from the apex between the legs. The gate is positioned upright adjacent the gate post, and then the A-frames are positioned over the gate so that they straddle the gate and are spaced apart. Next, the hangers are attached to the gate to elevate the gate at the correct height. The gate can be leveled by adjusting the distance between the feet of each of the A-frames. Once leveled, the gate hardware can be connected to the post hardware. Then, the A-frames are removed. All this can be done easily and safely by a single person.
