David - I agree that tube gates are available and inexpensive here. BUT... if you see what you want at Home Depot (the only place I really shop much), I suggest that you buy it! When they stack their gates on the floor to sell, they can get 'sloppy' and many are damaged. I am also not sure that I've seen a single gate that is 16', but I wasn't looking for a 16' either. That is a long distance to cantilever.
The one things I do regret not shipping over is some TRUE ground contact rated pressure treated lumber. I'm a bit skeptical about Hi-Bor treated lumber.
