The way out is through

Cool, thanks guys!

Like I said, I did find some pretty affordable weld-on gate hinges. They just won't allow the gate to open out and swing around flat against the fence. They all look to open only 90deg outwards, unless I do something crazy with the way hinges are mounted.

Here's really what I'm going for, as it allows the metal frame to be on the inside of the gate welded to the hinges, the planking on the outside and flush with the posts, and the gate can open out 180 deg.
