in front of a fireplace place it at least 30" (76.2 cm) away
from the fire.

ASSEMBLY
General
The following assembly instructions work for all sections
of the Construct-A-SafeGate. They can all be assembled
and reassembled in any order to fit the location.
Step 1
Determine the width of the area you need to protect, and
whether or not the “Starter Kit” is enough, or if you need
to purchase additional sections.
Step 2
Decide where you want the Door Section located in the
gate. Normally it’s most convenient to have the door in
the center or near the center of the gate span.
Step 3
On the hinge side of the Door Section, position a Section
with the flush hinge to nest with the open hinge on the
door section. Position at the desired angle.
Insert the Connecting Spindle with the silver end toward
the top. The bottom of the Connecting Spindle is
threaded and will fit onto the threaded post in the lower
hinge. Only screw the Connecting Spindle in partially by
hand to allow for possible angle adjustments of the gate
later without having to unscrew the Connecting Spindle.
