Step
1: Before Installing decide on gate
placement. “L” brackets that form
top hinge allows gate placement in the recess
of door frame. Installation can also be made
outside or inside of wall next to door or
opening frame.
Extension brackets (order separately) clear
overhead door tracks, bollards or obstructions.
6” brackets provide 4-3/4” clearance,
9” brackets provide 7-1/4” clearance. |
| CAUTION |
- Keep
fingers out of web pinch points.
- Do
not set gate on its wheel, gate will run
|
 |
Step
2: Have a helper extend the gate
and stand it upright where it will be mounted.
CAUTION: Check to confirm gate will swing
away from opening when not in use. This
will provide a clear opening for normal
traffic.
-
Drill 3/4”diameter x 3” deep
hole, 1-1/4” from wall into floor
for gate pin to set into.
- For
6” extension bracket drill 6”
O.C. from wall.
-
For 9” extension bracket drill 9”
O.C. from wall.
Place
a bearing washer over floor hole and set
bottom gate pin into floor mount hole. |

Step
3: Extend gate and hang “L”
bracket on top of gate to verify where it
will be mounted. To release tension you
may lift the wheel 1/2”-3/4”
off the floor. Mark and drill pilot holes
into door frame or wall. It may be easier
to drill pilot holes if you remove the gate
from it’s floor mount. Place
bearing washer and bottom gate pin back
into floor mount. Slip “L” bracket
over top of gate and secure with 5/16”
x 2” lag bolts.
Step
4: Extend and retract gate to its stops
to work out stiffness. Always raise the
drop pin to keep it from dragging across
the floor. Now you are done mounting the
hinged side of the gate. |
 |
Step
5: Fully extend gate across opening,
align padlock holes and position locking bar
on door frame or wall. Mark and drill pilot
holes. Secure with 5/16” x 2”
lag bolts. |
 |
Step
6: With gate fully extended across
opening mark the floor center drop pin hole
onto concrete floor. Drill a 3/4”diameter
x 3” deep hole. Lower drop pin (Note:
some larger gates have an
additional pin in the center of each web,
mark and drill these last.) Secure gate to
locking bar with 1/2” shaft diameter
padlock.
Open gate slowly at first to avoid
warping. |
