So I'd build the dock and then add the gate.

I'm currently playing an IT with ISB in a game, and docks with a gate are more expensive than forts with a gate. By about 40 resources, IIRC. I'll have to look up the specifics when I get home, but I build the occasional fort with a gate just for that reason - speed.

Confirmed. At my current tech levels, a fort with a 100/250 gate costs 142 resources and the dock with the same gate costs 176 resources.
Unless you can take enough colonists to build either in a single turn (unlikely during the early game), then the difference is only 20k colonists for a two-year build. If I could afford it, I'd definitely go for the dock option, but if speed is of the essence and I only have 75k colonists to take along, then I'd rocket up that 250 fort and reinforce immediately.
Re-reading your posting I see you were saying the cost of the gate is more than the cost of either hull, not that the dock+gate is cheaper than the fort+gate. Absolutely true. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Wouldn't change my approach, though.
Cheers,
Void
