Actual width of 16 ft farm gate?

[FatTire]

What is the normal width of a 16 ft gate? 15' 6"? 15' 8"? Or are they all different?

Most are made to fit a 16' opening, allowing for the hinges and latch.

I just run it through the gate calculator, and it would be 187.75" wide. That is for a tubular chain link or farm gate with typical hinges. That would be 4.25" for the hinges and latch.
