How to Install a Gate Window

Here is a simple step by step process of installing a gate window to your wooden gate!

  • Step 1: Measure

    Measure and mark out the area that you need to cut out for your new gate window. Make sure to leave some extra on each side for the hardware.

  • Step 2: Drill Pilot Hole

    You will need to drill a hole large enough for your jigsaw blade to fit through. This is typically about 0.25" - 0.5". Drill all the way through.

  • Step 3: Cut

    Use your jigsaw to cut out the marked area where your gate window will go. Make as straight of cuts as possible and try to stay on the line without taking any extra material off.

  • Step 4: Installing Your Window

    Before you fasten your new window to your gate, make sure the hardware holes line up with your gate. You should have about an inch from each edge of the hole.

  • Step 5: Fastening

    Use a drill and hardware that is no longer than the thickness of your gate. If the hardware is too long, they will poke out the other side. Once you're ready to install the window, fasten the hardware.

  • *Optional* Step 6: Frame

    Add an extra element to your gate window. Make a small frame around the installed window. This will not only look great, but it will also protect the window and make it last longer!
