Installation

1. IMPORTANT

Gate must be installed in a structurally sound
opening. The hinge side of gate must be
mounted to a rigid surface.

Ensure mounting surface (wall, door frame,
stairpost, etc.) is strong, rigid and has an
even surface.

2.

If using gate on a stairway, it must be placed
either on top stair or on lowest stair at the
bottom.

3. The correct width will be achieved by

adjusting gate sections and all four corner
spindles. Each spindle adjusts individually and
may be extended varying lengths to allow for
molding, uneven walls, etc. Spindles may be
extended a minimum of 1
(on locking side) and a maximum of 3”.

1/4” (hinge side) or 1”

4. Adjust sections until gate is approximately

the correct width and adjustment holes are
aligned and overlap in two places on both the
top and bottom rail (maximum overlap is 5
bars).
Sections should fit without any distance
between rails or bars.

5. Place screws (i) and screw sockets (j) in top

and bottom sets of overlapping adjustment
holes nearest hinge and locking sides of gate.
Do not fully tighten yet.

6. Screw upper hinge spindle (h) into top rail of

one gate section.
Screw lower hinge spindle (d) into bottom rail of
same side.

Extend spindles equally.

7. Screw locking latch spindles (n) into top and

bottom rails of second gate section.

Extend spindles equally.

Final spindle adjustments will be made later.

8. Hinge Side Mounting

Screws provided are for mounting directly
into wood. If mounting into brick, drywall or
other surfaces, use appropriate hardware. If
installing into hardwood, (i.e. oak), drilling a
pilot hole may be necessary.

Cut out templates along all dotted lines,
separating template (a) from (b).

Hold template (a) vertically and completely out­stretched against mounting surface with the end
marked “ ” even with the floor.

Mark 4 screw hole positions.
Remove template.

➤

9. Using 2 wood screws (k), mount upper hinge

(g) (with hole pointing up) in top 2 screw hole
positions.

10. Using 2 wood screws, (k) mount lower hinge

bottom (c) (with post pointing up) in bottom 2
screw hole positions.

11. Locking Side Mounting

Screws provided are for mounting directly
into wood. If mounting into brick, drywall or
other surfaces, use appropriate hardware. If
installing into hardwood, (i.e. oak), drilling a
pilot hole may be necessary.

Hold template (b) vertically and completely out­stretched against mounting surface with the end
marked “ ” even with the floor.

Mark 4 screw hole positions.
Remove template.

➤

12. Determine which direction the gate should

open. For the top of stairways, gate should
never open out over the stairs.

Insert stop pins (o) from behind in holes of
locking latch bracket (l) and lower latch bracket
(m) opposite desired opening direction.

Important: The gate cannot open to the stop
pin side.

13. Using 2 wood screws (k) mount locking

latch bracket (l) in top 2 screw hole positions.

14. Using 2 wood screws (k), mount lower latch

bracket (m) in bottom 2 screw hole positions.

15. Center gate in opening. Adjust upper hinge

spindle (h) so post fits into upper hinge hole (g).

16. Adjust lower hinge spindle (d) so end fits

over lower hinge post (c).
Space between end of gate and mounting
surface on hinge side may be no less than

1/4” and not more than 3”.

1

17. Adjust locking latch spindles (n) until they fit

securely into both latch brackets. Top spindle
must click under locking latch when in the
closed position.
Space between end of gate and mounting
surface on locking side may be no less than 1”
and not more than 3”.

18. If adjusting the spindles does not achieve

the correct length, it may be necessary to lift
gate off hinges and readjust the sections (see
step 3).
Check that gate can be smoothly opened and
closed.

Installation

19. Place spring (e) on lower hinge post.

20. Place lower hinge cap (f) on lower hinge and

push down until it clicks into locked position.

IMPORTANT. ENSURE HINGE CAP
