NOTE: We designed the All-Clear Swing Gate with two release buttons to make it easy to open regardless of where you are standing when you want to open the release handle. You only need to push and slide ONE release button in order to lift the release handle.

b.Now lift up the adjustment buckle to release. Be sure to release both the top and bottom buckles.

TIP: You may find it difficult to open the adjustment buckles. The tightness you may encounter is an intentional safety measure that we’ve built-in for optimal child security. To make it easier to open the adjustment buckles, try placing the gate flat on the floor with buckle side facing up towards you. Then, follow steps a. and b. above and continue with the installation.
