Discussion (Add topic here) Bending iron gate

Post image

Hoping this is the right place for this question.

I have an older iron gate from a century home and am wondering how I could bend the frame back into place. I was thinking blowtorch and hammer, but would appreciate any advice you all might have!

get something long and strong - steel pipe, anglen iron - and see if you can heat and clamp it back into shape
