Coming across the gate is tricky but not impossible you may be able to fit some girder clips.
Or some half saddles screwed between the two metal flats.

Not sure the girder clips will work looking at the gate again the tube will fail on the upright rods. Half saddles may work but could be tricky to secure.

IMO it is going to be extremely inconvenient having a conduit run across the top of a gate, carrying anything through the gate of any height is going to cause you problems, i.e. carrying a ladder through to clean the windows of clean out the gutters, bite the bullet now and cut chase and bury the conduit in the path.

It's already got that metal arch thing over the top of the gate to get in the way when carrying things through it, attaching a conduit to it won't make it any worse than it already is from that respect.

Just noticed the size of this thread about running a bit of pvc conduit.
Is there any chance that metal arch thing was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel?

I know a lot of people with arch over a gate. It came with the gate. The old SWA was cable tied to the top of the gate and bottom of the arch.
 
I should have look closer :rolleyes:, but I would still bury it.

I’m not a flagger, so no chance of me lifting some flags up. It would look rather odd coming out of a wall down the brick, under the paving slabs and then up the garage wall.

Yeah, but it has a really groovy smell man. :cool:
Don't it just Man? Oh and don't light up a ciggy when using it, makes it better (worse) sorry bout that typo, just remembering happier times. Roof spaces were the best area to use it, just remember to walk on the rafters, not the plasterboard
