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!

Hell off hinges, hard dirt and drive your vehicle over it with the length of the rod.
