Working a bit further out than I usually would today. An electrician had installed these gate opener brackets for the customer using unsuitable fixings, they failed within a week.
The customer asked me for help, I advised them of a solution and offered them an opportunity of getting someone more local, but they were happy for me to carry out the repair.
Riv nuts cut off and brackets secured with a fixing right through the gate, whist keeping the front as neat as possible with colour matched fixings (can you spot them?). Customer is happy with the solution and confident they will last!
