1. Position your gate for installation. There
are three different scenarios for gate po-
sitioning:
•
If you have an existing gate with fixed
hinges, remove the gate and the bottom
hinge. If the gate cannot be removed,
place blocks under it’s bottom edge to
support it.
•
If you have an existing gate with adjust-
able hinges, remove the bottom hinge,
slacken the top hinge and swing the leaf
around the axis of the top hinge (see pic-
ture to right).
•
If you have a new gate to be installed, fit
the top hinge. If possible use an adjust-
able hinge.
2. Dig out a hole for the foundation box, depending on the nature of the ground it may be
necessary to cast a bed of quick-setting
concrete at the bottom of the hole to
avoid movement in the future.
3. Study the below diagrams carefully and
design your system to match the
diagrams.
The center of the pivot
on the foundation box must be
perfectly aligned with the leaf’s
axis of swing.
