Gate Installation
DOUBLE GATE INSTALLATION
1. Follow the same instructions as per a single gate when installing the hinges for both gates.
2. To calculate the variances for the latch you must treat the fixed gate as if it were a standard fence
panel.
3. The ideal hardware installation on a double gate should have equal spacing between posts and gates.
4. Install the drop rods to post of the fixed gate.
1. Determine the direction the gate is to swing, usually swings away from yard. Check your local codes!
2. Install aluminum insert on the hinge side prior to the installation of the gate.
3. Locate and follow hardware installation instructions.
SINGLE GATE INSTALLATION
The gate will be mounted to be flush with the side of the fence that the gate will be swinging. See
the illustration below. Be sure the gate will be high enough to clear obstructions such as snow. The
gate posts should be cut on site as needed. Some installers cut the gate posts off at the bottom of the
bottom gate pocket. DO NOT cut into the gate pocket.
