To determine your 5” x 5” setback position measure from the center of the gate hinge back to-
wards the inside of the gate, perpendicular to the gate, 5”.
Then making a 90 degree turn in the direc-
tion of the post, parallel to the gate,
measure 5”.
We have included a setback card with the
measurements in with your operator.
This point will be your rear pivot point for
your opener arm. Position your mounting
bracket so one of the holes lines up with the
determined post pivot point.

IMPORTANT: 5” x 5” Setback
The 5” x 5” is a very important requirement to be aware of during installation of the
post mounting bracket. The 5” x 5” setback allows the operator arm to achieve
appropriate and equal leverage during opening and closing cycles.
The purpose of this page is to clarify and show examples of the 5”x5” setback.
Install the brackets according to the installation directions following this page.
