Why heavy gates get force at right angle while closing and opening?

Force is applied at the outer edge of the lever(here the door) as there is increased `leverage`. This is because at this case R (distance from hinge) is more .Since torque = F × R., increase in R would lead to increase in torque, hence easier the work.
