Installation

NOTE: THIS GATE IS ONLY INTENDED FOR USE
AS A ROOM DIVIDER OR IN A DOORWAY
For further clarification, please see back of user

guide for corresponding drawings.

1. The gate must be installed in a structurally sound

opening. Never install between two railings or two
stair posts. Ensure mounting surface (wall, doorframe,
etc.) is strong, rigid and is smooth, clean and grease
free. If mounting onto brick, drywall or other surfaces,
an optional gate installation kit, wooden board
mounted to the surface or additional hardware may be
necessary to provide a solid, smooth surface. Measure
opening to determine if extensions are needed.
Correct width will be reached by adjusting all 4 corner
spindles. Each spindle adjusts individually and may be
extended to varying lengths (up to 1 ¾” each) to allow
for molding, uneven walls, etc. This gate can be used
in a closed doorway (Fig 1), but CANNOT be used on
a stairway.

2. Spindle attachment is different when using
extensions and when not using extensions. If no

extension/s are used, slide top spindles (a) and
bottom spindles (c) into spindle housing end (b ).
Push assembly into gate corners.

3. If using extension/s, (see Extension Placement
Guide) insert square extension tubes (f) into gate ends.

Connect extension bar (g) to one upper extension
housing (d) and one lower extension housing (e).
Push assembly over extension tubes. There should
be no metal showing from extension tubes. It may be
necessary to apply pressure to tubes to ensure they
are fully inserted into gate ends. Slide top spindles (a)
and bottom spindles (c) into extension tubes.

4. Spindle housings are not used if square
extension tubes are necessary. If the housings
have been inserted, remove with a screwdriver.

5. Center the gate in opening with bottom rail
resting on floor. Gaps on each side should be equal.
IMPORTANT: The gate must be level and straight up
and down, otherwise the gate’s self closing door will
not function properly.

6. Pull out the two bottom spindles (c) until they touch
the mounting surface and rest on top of floor molding
(if applicable). Tighten handwheels TOWARD GATE
FRAME as tightly as possible. Each spindle adjusts
individually and may be extended to varying lengths to
allow for molding, uneven walls, etc.

7. Close walk through door so it is aligned directly
above bottom gate rail. Pull out top spindle (a) on
the hinge side (h) until it touches mounting surface.
Tighten handwheel TOWARD GATE FRAME.

5

Operation

8. Pull out top spindle (a) on handle side until it

touches mounting surface and tighten handwheel
TOWARD GATE FRAME. Take turns tightening both
top spindles until tension is reached and the distance
between the handle and frame is 1/32”.

9. To Open Gate: Pull back trigger (j) on handle. Lift

gate door and swing open. On the door handle is a
colored Lock Indicator (l). When this indicator is RED
the gate is locked. If the indicator is GREEN the gate
is not locked and the door can be pushed open. Gate
should always be in locked position (indicator showing
RED) when not in use.

10.To Close Gate: The walk through door will close

by itself and the lock will re-engage. Make sure that
the lock indicator (l) on the door is RED. If the lock

indicator is not RED then the door is not locked
properly. This may be due to the gate not being level
on the ground or straight up and down in the door
frame. Check gate alignment and make any necessary
adjustments until the door closes automatically and
the indicator turns RED when closed.

11.Test the gate door from both directions. If the gate
is lined up properly, the door will close automatically
from both sides. If it closes from one side and not
the other, it means that the gate is tilted towards the
side that it will NOT close from. When this is the case,
loosen the top spindles and straighten the gate in the
doorway; tighten the spindles and test again. Continue
to test until gate door automatically closes from both
sides. Now the gate is in proper working order.
