Abstract
The present double door gate apparatus has a first lowermost frame member with a first inner end and a second lowermost frame member with a second inner end. The first and second inner ends are spaced apart and engaged by a first connector that engages exterior portions of the inner ends and a second connector that engages interior portions of the inner ends. First and second gates have inner ends that confront each other more closely than the inner ends of the lowermost frame members confront each other.

- a) a first base frame, the first base frame including a first outer end frame member that extends vertically and a first lowermost frame member that extends horizontally, the first lowermost frame member having a first inner end, the first inner end having a top face, front face, and rear face;
- b) a first gate pivotally engaged to the first base frame;
- c) a second base frame, the second base frame including a second outer end frame member that extends vertically and a second lowermost frame member that extends horizontally, the second lowermost frame member having a second inner end, the second inner end having a top face, front face and rear face;
- d) a second gate pivotally engaged to the second base frame;
- e) the first gate having an uppermost frame member;
- f) the second gate having an uppermost frame member;
- g) a latch apparatus engaging the uppermost frame member of the first gate and further engaging the uppermost frame member of the second gate;
- h) a connector engaging the first inner end of the first lowermost frame member to the second inner end of the second lowermost frame member, the connector being disengagable from each of the first inner end of the first lowermost frame member and the second inner end of the second lowermost frame member without destroying an integrity of any of the first and second lowermost frame members;
- and
- i) a space between the first and second gates defining a vertical axis, the vertical axis extending through the connector;
- j) a first portion of the connector being adjacent to a portion of the first gate when the first gate is closed;
- k) a second portion of the connector being adjacent to a portion of the second gate when the second gate is closed.
