How heavy is this gate?

Due to the size of it and it's ends being able to fold in it's sort of difficult to get an accurate weight, but mine on an old fashioned scale weighed between 11-12 pounds. The shipping weight is 16.8 pounds so I would say 12 pounds would be pretty close...hope this helps :)

Probably 5 to 8 lbs. very easy to move and set up. We now have two in our house.

Maybe 5 lbs? Not hard to lift. I love this gate, we have 5 small dogs. I cannot use this to keep them in a room as they can push their way out, but I use it so they cannot get into the guest room

Yes it is sturdy, no it is not made of metal, it's a very hard plastic. We have had this gate up for months now and absolutely love it.

Will this work on a 10ft wide and 6ft tall typical Redwood fence gate? Not sure what the weight of the gate will be. Thanks

Sorry. Already installed so I can't weigh it. No idea of weight cuz I already threw away packaging. Best to check on Amazon product info regarding shipping weight, or check on manufacturer website http://www.gates.com/products and search site with product parts/model number. Good luck.

Everyone has their own definition of "heavy". It is solid and well-made. I would suggest that a man do the install---not to be Chauvanistic...

difficult to say without knowing the size and weight of the gate and strength of the fence and fence posts...call Mighly Mule and get some answers...

We installed a large gate last summer and its heavy but the wheel has not lost any air yet. Its similar to a wheel barrow wheel, just smaller.

90" of steel strand cable is included. Doesn't say maximum weight but it appears that it is very strong. We are pleased but only used on a 3x3 pressure treated gate.

I am disabled and I had some workers from my assisted living facility install it for me. I have it on a small table and I have adjusted it for space. I don't think that it is very heavy

This cannot be used with a 16' gate. It is designed for use with lightweight gates up to 12 feet long and 300 lbs.

I'm thinking it was about 4-5 pounds, not too heavy, but sturdy. It is in my second home and not accessible at this time. Hope this helps.

I installed one on a gate that is about 4'x7' and made out of pine. I imagine it would work on a heavier gate.

I have a13 foot gate that I know weighs 300 lbs or more and put one wheel near the center, to help with the load of putting the wheel near the end. It's been there for over a month now and is holding up well. I have tried two other wheels and the didn't work. The ground is packed gravel but uneven. I plan on putting something in the ground along the wheel path for it to ride more smoothly. It's an easy mount on a chain link fence support rail. Good product for sure, time will tell if I am pushing it past it's limits.

That would seem to be ok... the gate itself is not that heavy and the design is really good. I wouldn't see any problems doing it that way.

about and inch and a half. this gate has pegs holding it together and after a fairly safe year, they are breaking apart.

My door is about 50 lbs or so. It is a 7 foot door and thicker than normal (1 5/8") so it is robust! A shorter door, same weight, might work.

It is really easy to move. I had my 15 pound Corgi in it and she can move her pen all over the kitchen. We put a brick in it to help, but even that didn't help much. But it is an awesome gate overall.
