Step 8
(fig. 18)
Attach the gate brackets to each gate by
inserting four 3/8” x 3” carriage bolts
through the gate brackets and the drilled
holes in the gates. Fasten each carriage bolt
with one 3/8” washer, one 3/8” lock wash-
er, and one 3/8” hex nut.
Installing the Gate Stop Plate
NOTE:
Mounting hardware for the gate
stop plate is not included. For wood gates,
use wood or lag screws. For tube or chain
gates, use U bolts.
Step 9
(fig. 19)
With the gate in the desired closed position,
loosely fasten the gate stop plate to the
middle of the gate between the top and
bottom at the end of one gate. Ease the
gate stop plate into position so that it over-
laps the end of the second gate. When this
position is reached, securely tighten the
gate stop plate hardware.
