GENERAL INFORMATION
1. Read over fence instructions first.
2. Pre-Assemble the gate frame.
3. Install your gate posts before your fence posts.
4. Do not hang your gate system off a single non-supported post.
Your gate and fence will work better together if you first take the time to read and under
-
stand your fence.
Please do not screw the gate frame together until you have temporarily assembled the gate
frame. In other words, do a dry run first. This will ensure:
Your fence panels will be more forgiving for a custom fit than your gate. Position and install
your gate posts before you do anything else.
Your gate will perform better and last longer if your hinge post is connected to a panel of
fence that is connected to another post. This way, the weight strain will be transferred onto
two posts versus just one. Installing fence panels on both sides of your gate is ideal in all sit-
uations. If this is not possible because of space restrictions, please contact us for alternative
solutions.
It’s easier to troubleshoot when things are not screwed together. After you assemble your
gate correctly, please disassemble as necessary, and use the 1¼” self-drilling stainless
steel screws to permanently assemble the gate.
1. That you have everything necessary to complete the gate.
2. That you will have assembled the gate frame in the correct order.
3.
All of the pieces fit and function properly.
4. The gate height and width are similar to the measurements shown on page one.
