But what the heck is the DR? I think we really need more examples of the DR and HP of ordinary things. All the guides that I can find--and I admit, I don't have a great memory--are for massive structures.
Because your players rammed the gate, p. B558 gives all you need to find the HP and DR of the "weakest link" (probably a Steel Bar or Steel Cable). I think some of the tech books have stats for chains and locks. Stats for the fence, with aluminum posts set in concrete, would be handy but they may be region specific (and to be honest, a chain-link fence is not what the collision rules were designed for anyways, so it may be best to wing it).
