Next steps apply for install on wood or aluminium posts
-
1ST STEP: Place the Gate and Marke the hinge position
Place the gate in the desired position and mark the hinge locations. It's important to follow the measurements shown in the image to ensure proper installation. Note that the measurements refer to the location of the hinges on the gate, not on the post.
-
Ensure Proper Clearance Between the Post and the Gate
Ensure there is a 3/4-inch space between the post and the gate. This gap is essential for smooth operation and to prevent any damage during movement.
-
Secure the Hinges
Fasten the hinges securely on the back side of the frame. Ensure the screws are tight to provide stability and smooth operation of the gate.
-
2ND STEP: Secure the Hinges on the Post
Attach the hinges to the post, ensuring the latch is positioned upward. This installation is crucial to support the gate and prevent it from falling.
-
3RD STEP: Align the Gate with the Latch
Position the gate so that the hinges align perfectly with the latch. This alignment ensures that the gate swings smoothly and locks securely when closed.
-
4TH STEP: Install the Gate onto the Hinges
Carefully install the gate onto the hinges, ensuring that it fits securely. Lower the gate into place, aligning the hinge pins with the hinge plates.
