Installing a Gate
Attach Hinges to Aluminum Side Rails
• After test fitting the gate to the gate opening, determine the desired
hinge location. Hinges can be placed either in the open position when
the gate is closed or in the closed position when the gate is closed
(typical for a door).
• Drill 7/64” pilot holes and use 1/4” x 1” self-drilling screws to attach
hinges to the aluminum Side Rails.
Attach Gate to Post
• After positioning the gate to the desired height, pre-drill the Post Sleeve
using a 7/64” drill bit. Attach the gate to the post using the 1/4” x 2” flat
head screws, installing the screws closer to the center of the post first.
• Install Tip: Add temporary support blocking under the gate to help hold the
gate at correct height.
Attach Latch and Latch Stop
• Position the gate latch on the Post Sleeve. Pre-drill the Post Sleeve
with a 7/64” drill bit. Install the Latch with the Latch lever up, using the
provided screws. Position the Latch Stop on the aluminum Side Rail.
Drill a pilot hole in the Side Rail with a 7/64” drill bit. Attach the Latch
Stop using the 3/16” x ¾” self drilling screws.
