Never leave child unattended. Use only with the locking/latching mechanism securely engaged.
Please follow these instructions carefully to ensure that your gate extension is properly installed. Improper installation could result in the gate becoming dislodged from the doorway, or unstable. Always make sure the extension is securely attached to the gate before using. The safety of your child is your responsibility.

If using this gate at the top of stairs,the 4 Wall Cups MUST
be used . If not use,the gate could be dislodged from the opening.

Assembling and Installing Your Gate
**Note: IMPORTANT!! You will notice a slight gap between the gate door and the gate frame. THIS IS NOT A DEFECT. Your gate is a pressure mounted gate and this gap will disappear once you tighten your gate in its opening.
Step 1.
Locate the 4 threaded spindle rods. Rotate the adjustment wheels along the threading, eliminating the gap between the adjustment wheel and the rubber foot.

Step 2.
Insert the 4 threaded spindle rods into the holes at each of the 4 corners of the gate as shown in the Diagram

Step 3.
Position the gate so that it is level and centered within your doorway or opening. Rotate the adjustment wheels on the threaded spindle rods in the opposite direction as in Step 1, expanding the gap between the rubber foot and the adjustment wheel. Expand each of the 4 Threaded Spindle Rods until they make contact with the doorway or opening. Do not fully tighten the Threaded Spindle Rods yet.

HINT:
It may be necessary to hold the Threaded Spindle Rods or Rubber Feet while rotating the Adjustment Wheels to ensure the entire unit does not rotate.

Step 4.
When you are satisfied with the general placement of your gate, fully tighten the Threaded Spindle Rods attached to the lower corners of the gate by further rotating the Adjustment Wheels.
Continue by tightening the upper Threaded Spindle Rods. As you tighten the upper Threaded Spindle Rods, you will notice the gap between the Door Frame and the door begin to narrow.
In order for the gate to function properly, tighten the upper Threaded Spindle Rods completely without removing the Plastic Lock Spacer. Then, pull the Thumb Lock back to remove the Plastic Lock Spacer. This will ensure proper spacing between the door and frame.

NOTE:
There should be equal spacing among each of the 4 Threaded Spindle Rods. Make the appropriate adjustment to ensure you have installed your gate safely.

Positioning and Attaching the Wall Cups
Your gate is a pressure mounted gate. Therefore, it is not necessary to use the screw attached Wall Cups in your door opening if you choose not to. However, IF YOU ARE USING THE GATE AT THE TOP OF STAIRS YOU MUST USE THE WALL CUPS. Using the Wall Cups will affix your gate more firmly in the doorway or opening.
Step 1.
After you have mounted your gate, and you are satisfied with its positioning, use a pencil or other marking tool to draw a circle on the surface of your doorway or opening around the perimeter of the 4 rubber feet.
Diagram E
Step 2.
Next, completely remove the gate from the opening by loosening each of the 4 Threaded Spindle Rods and de-pressurizing the gate.

Step 3.
With the gate fully removed, you can now use the circles you marked during Step 1 as guides for screwing in your 4 Wall Cups.
Center each of the Wall Cups within the guide circles and use the provided self-tapping screws to fasten them in place via the hole through the center of each Wall Cup.

Step 4.
Reinstall your gate in the doorway or opening according to the instructions, using the newly installed Wall Cups as anchoring points for the 4 Threaded Spindle Rods

Operating the Door Latch
Step 1.
Use your thumb or forefinger to pull back on the Thumb Lock. This action will release the locking pin below the metal saddle that joins the door and the gate frame.
Step 2.
With the Thumb Lock pulled back, lift up on the entire door panel, raising the gate high enough for the upper and lower metal saddles to clear free of their counterparts. Your gate door should now be free to fully open. To close the gate, simply repeat these steps in reverse.
HINT:
If your latch is not properly engaging, ensure that your gate is level, mounted properly, and that you have not over-tightened the Threaded Spindle Rods.

instructions.
Removing Your Gate From The Wall
To remove your gate from the wall, rotate the Adjustment Wheels on each of the 4 Threaded Spindle Rods to depressurize the gate from its doorway or opening. Then, gently pull or push the gate free from its doorway or opening.
