Hello everyone, I have a trailer I had gotton from my father long ago, it's missing the old heavy steel gates that were once a whole gate together until he cut thewm apart. I have since gotton rid of them because they were dangerous to pull down. I was wondering if anyone knows where I can buy a mesh gate for my trailer as I am a landscaper, so mesh would be fine.

Could maybe find a trailer dealer that could order one from the factory, and then you'd have to customize the hinges and get them welded on.

A welding shop could likely do it too, for a reasonable cost. For landscape gates, 0.0625" wall tubing is plenty strong enough, with the members 12-16" on center. That helps keep the weight reasonable.

A fab shop can make you the gate. These trailers are all a little different. I have built a few. $200 in materials and about that in labor.
