What gates? If you mean double wooden door then make sure you have all the materials, equipment, and adequate skill level.

i have everything, but when i want to put gates, one of their parts is red in any position, they just dont build, it looks like a bug

There could be a small tree, or trash on the floor? You can remove trash the same way you move furniture. Maybe check the area for anything you can move or pick up?

in the same place, for example, i can put up a fence, but gates don't want to, i'll try to inspect the area, maybe something really interferes

I was waiting more explanation or maybe a screenshot.
But. Iirc (I'm rarely build bases novadays) you can drop half of the necessary planks on one end of the gate, and carry the other half to the another end of the gate.
Now try.
Another thing comes to my mind double gate tooltip was wrong (back in b39-b40), and you needed more planks, than tooltip told. Duno if this was fixed in B41 (didn't built double gates in current beta).

Again: my memories comes from b39-b40, they are already faded and dusty. But. Worth a try, hope it's helps you. But, if this dont help, try ... ... (3 dots 2 times. 😝)

Have all the necessary planks and items in your main inventory and then try building it?

I recently found out the hard way that you can't un-build the Double Doors, you need the sledgehammer. :steamfacepalm: I just hit level 8 Carpentry and realized all my builds had better stats and even looked better, so I went to rebuild my fence and left the gate standing, unsupported. Took a 3 day battle to the Riverside Factory warehouse and a day of emptying / dismantling crates to find the f@#king sledgehammer! When I rebuilt the Double Door... it looked exactly the same :steamsad:
