SECTION 7 - TOP LANDING GATE OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT - PATHWAY CONNECTOR KIT
The Pathway Connector Kit,
pictured on the right, is an option designed to
quickly and easily connect a Top Landing
Gate to a Pathway platform handrail.
FIG. 7.1
INSTALLATION:
1. The Pathway Connector Kit connects a gate post to a platform handrail post. It includes two 1- 1/2”
diameter handrail tubes, two connector plates, two clamp plates, and the needed hardware ( FIG. 7.1 ). If
connecting both gate posts to platform handrail posts, use two connector assemblies.
The 1- 1/2” diameter handrail tubes are sized for the largest platform and must be cut to fit.
2. Install the Pathway Modular Platform in the desired location per the instruction manual included with the
system. Do not install a handrail on the side of the platform where the gate will be installed.
3. A smooth fascia panel is required to fill the area underneath the gate between the platform and the
ground. It is the installer’s responsibility to construct this fascia and confirm it meets building codes.
4. Place the gate on the platform and use the upper mounting holes in the gate sill as a template to drill
5/16” or 11/32” holes through the platform side rail ( FIG. 7.2 ).
