Need some advice on how to attach the fencing to a 6 ft gate. I have it temporary attached with rebar ties but I know that won't hold. I was thinking on using hose clamps but at almost $2.00 each I thought I'd check here first.
Thanks!!!

Can't you just wrap the fencing around the ends/sides of the gate and attach it to itself with the fencing wire itself? Aside from that, baling wire is cheap and you can cut lengths and attach the fence to the gate like with twist ties... or baling wire threaded through the fence as you wrap it around the gate structure (like a spiral staircase)? You could use zip ties, but I think they'd last less time than the rebar ties.

Why not hose clamps at key stress points and the rebar tie wire everywhere else?
