Important. Gate must be installed in a structurally sound opening. 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.
If using gate on a stairway, it must be placed either on top stair or on lowest stair at the bottom .
Mounting Hinge Side
Screws provided are for mounting directly into wood. If mounting into brick, drywall or other surfaces, use appropriate hard- ware. If installing into hardwood
(i.e. oak), drilling a pilot hole may be necessary.
Hold template (a) against mounting surface, making sure end marked “1” is even with floor.
Mark 4 screw hole positions.
Remove template .
Using 2 wood screws (q) and only lower screw holes, mount hinge bottoms (b) with posts pointing up. Top screw holes will be used later.
