STEP 3: INSTALL UPPER AND LOWER HINGE (WALL BRACKET)
1. Cut template “I” and “J” along the dotted line to get the correct space from the gate
to the floor.
2. Decide which side of your opening will be the hinge side
(i.e. the side that does NOT open). Next, place template
“J” against the wall using tape. The template should be
flush to the floor/step.
3. Mark the screw hole with a pencil to
create indentation on for both upper and
lower hinge wall bracket. Then, remove
template “J” from the wall.
4. Determine whether there is a stud behind the drywall where you will install the upper
and lower hinge wall bracket. Proceed to either
5a or 5b .
Upper Hinge
TOOLS NEEDED:
•
Drill
• Phillips Screwdriver
• Adhesive Tape
• Hex Key
• Pencil
2. Size the gate to your opening by sliding the hinge panel and catch panel outward
towards the wall. For ease of gate installment later, please keep between a 1.5” and 2”
(38mm and 50mm) gap from the gate panel to the wall.
3. Secure the hinge panel and catch panel together
using the upper and lower clamps. If the bars are
not lined up, shorten the gate width by sliding
panels inwards away from walls to allow room for
the clamps.
Use the small screws to attach the top and
bottom halves of each clamp together.
