    Trying to make a gate at the end of a deck (full width)

    This is actually a bridge, and I am trying to put a gate (12ft wide) at the end.
    However, I cannot make the gate wider than half way across the bridge.
    I am using x4.

    I made the deck, I added a rail all the way across and then inserted a door, I tried to make it wider, but could not


    Thanks!

    Mc,

    Might want to post the plan. CLose it, zip it up and post. If it is too big
    strip it of most items and then save as seperate plan and zip.

    MC,

    Delete anything not necessary to fixing/visualizing the problem. lights, furniture, trees, rooms etc. Notice I say delete not turn off layers. Then save as a new name so you still have your original plan.
