nuts supplied. You will use three hex nuts on the eye bolt. One is installed on the eye bolt first, then the
eye bolt is installed through the trolley and panel. Then two nuts will be installed on the eye bolt, this
will allow you adjust the gate panel up and down to level the gate panel.
4. Slide the gate panel into the trolley channel, and slide the panel to the closed position. With the
gate panel in the closed position, you will need to install a TEK screw at the end of the unistrut to

the gate stop when finished installing gate.
