Step 3:
Mount upper pillar mount bracket
For safety purposes, have a helper hold the Turnstyle operator in place while you mount the
upper pillar mount bracket.
a.
Place upper pillar mount bracket onto top of Turnstyle operator
Securely place the upper pillar mount bracket onto the pivot detail (top pin) of the
Turnstyle operator and hold the upper bracket against the pillar/post.
b.
Determine location of upper pillar mount bracket
With the upper pillar mount bracket held against the pillar/post, place a
level on the Turnstyle operator and move the upper bracket along the
pillar/post until the operator is vertically level (plumb).
c.
Level upper pillar mount bracket
Once the correct location of the upper bracket is determined, make sure the
bracket is level/square onto the pillar/post by using a level and/or square.
d.
Mark pilot holes onto pillar/post for upper pillar mount bracket
Once the upper bracket is level, mark all 4 pilot holes onto the pillar/post using the
upper pillar mount bracket as your guide.
e.
Mounting your upper pillar mount bracket onto pillar/post
Depending on the construction of your pillar/post, drill your pilot holes and securely
attach the upper pillar mount bracket. Make sure the bracket is securely attached to
the pillar/post to ensure that it safely carries the weight load anticipated with your
particular gate installation.
Step 4:
Attach the gate mounting brackets and gate onto
the Turnstyle Operator.
If your gate has been integrated with your Turnstyle operator, you will not need to attach gate
mounting brackets. In this case, your gate will already be integrated (welded) with the Turnstyle
operator. See page 4 for further instructions.
See page 12 for instructions on attaching your brackets and gate to your
Turnstyle operator.
At this point you have successfully installed a Pillar Mount single gate
manual Turnstyle GMS™
d.
a. Optional: The holes can be drilled directly into the pillar/post
through the holes of the upper bracket without removing the
upper brackets. Be sure to hold the upper bracket steady so
the holes will be drilled into the correct location.
b. Make sure you use a drill bit that corresponds with the
material of the pillar/post into which you will be drilling.
a.
b. & c.
e.
The upper pillar mount bracket should touch
the white nylon “C” clip washer located on the
top pin of the Turnstyle operator.
