Behlen Country 40113088 8 Ft 6 Rail Galvanized Tube Gate

Product Description

The BEHLEN COUNTRY 40113088 is an 8-foot, 6-rail galvanized tube gate built for non-crowding livestock and field applications. Constructed from 1-5/8-inch galvanized steel tubing with one vertical brace, this gate delivers corrosion resistance and structural rigidity suited to outdoor farm and ranch environments. It ships complete with mounting hardware, hinges, and a snap chain latch, so installers have everything needed for a full hang right out of the box. At 43 pounds, it is a full-weight agricultural gate intended for permanent post mounting. Farmers, ranchers, and fencing contractors are the typical end users.

This gate is intended for non-crowding applications including pastures, field entrances, and general perimeter access points where livestock control is needed but cattle pressure against the gate is not a primary concern. The 8-foot span covers a standard single-lane farm entrance or interior pasture opening. The galvanized finish makes it appropriate for year-round outdoor exposure in wet, muddy, or high-humidity environments. It is not rated for crowding chutes, tub systems, or high-pressure livestock handling setups.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a fencing contractor or experienced farm hand. Before hanging, confirm that corner or end posts are set in concrete and fully cured to handle gate load and swing stress. Use the included hardware and ensure hinges are plumb and evenly spaced for smooth operation. Do not use this gate in crowding or high-pressure livestock handling configurations.
