1 - Read Over Fence Instructions First

     Your gate and fence will work better together as an integrated 

     solution if you first take the time to read and understand your

     fence instructions.  

   

2 - Do a Dry Run First on the Gate Frame

     Only 

(not pickets or boards)

     Please do not glue or screw your gate frame together until you

     have first temporarily assembled the gate.  In other words, 

     do a dry run first.

      This will ensure three things:

     a)  That you have everything necessary to complete the gate.

     b)  That you will have assembled the gate in the correct order.

     c)   All the pieces fit and function properly.

     It’s easier to trouble shoot when things are not glued and screwed together.

     After you assemble your gate correctly, please disassemble as necessary and 

     use glue and screws to permanently assemble the gate.

3 - Ideally, Install Your Gate Posts

     Before Your Fence Posts

     Your fence panels will be more forgiving for a custom fit than 

     your gate.  Ideally, position and install your gate posts

     before you do anything else, or very early on in the 

     process of setting up your fence run.

  Install Your Gate Posts 

Before Installing Your

Fence Posts.
