ENG CDN To install

!WARNING:

ALWAYS use the hardware mounting method when installing the All-Clear Swing Gate at the top of stairs, as it provides maximum security. Do not use in pressure mount mode at the top of stairs. Adult assembly required.

The First Years All-Clear Swing Gate can be either pressure mounted or hardware mounted. Once hardware mounted, you can also switch back and forth for use in pressure mount application.

For proper installation, the gate must be installed in an opening where wall on both sides is straight and the floor is level.

NOTE: Hinge bracket spacers may be necessary if there’s a baseboard. (See page 5 for installation instructions.)

Mounting surfaces

Remember that the hinge and wall mount brackets must be firmly screwed into solid wood surfaces or solid wood studs. Do not attach to metal railing or metal wall covering, or to sheet rock, plaster or lathe board (unless you have verified that a stud is directly underneath).
