Make sure the hinge bolts fit all the way into the hinge
plate as shown in the illustration.
Adjust gate level by tightening and loosening the inside and
outside nuts on the hinge bolts. Loosen the outside nuts to
raise the gate, the inside nuts to lower the gate.
Check to be sure your gate is level. Once your gate is
level, tighten all the nuts with a wrench. If installing a dual
gate be sure that both panels are level with one another.
