Assembling and Installing Your Gate
STEP 1
Locate the (4) threaded spindle rods (D). Rotate the
adjustment wheels along the threading, eliminating
the gap between the adjustment wheel and the
rubber foot.
STEP 2
Insert the (4) threaded spindle rods into the
holes at each of the four corners of the gate.
NOTE:
You will notice a slight gap between the gate
door latch and the frame. This is not a defect. Your
gate is a pressure mounted gate and this gap will
disappear once you tighten your gate in its opening.
NOTE:
The ends of the gate frame are not
threaded. The threaded spindle rods should
slide into the end of the frame tubes without
any resistance.
STEP 3
Position the gate so that it is level and centered within your
doorway or opening. Rotate the adjustment wheels on the
threaded spindle rods in the opposite direction as in Step 1,
expanding the gap between the rubber foot and the
adjustment wheel. Expand each of the (4) threaded spindle
rods until they make contact with the doorway or opening.
Do not fully tighten the threaded spindle rods yet.
NOTE:
It may be necessary to hold the
threaded spindle rods or rubber feet while
rotating the adjustment wheels to ensure the
entire unit does not rotate.
Operating the Door Latch
NOTE:
The gap between the gate and wall should not
exceed more than 2.5 inches. Make the appropriate
adjustment to ensure you have installed your gate safely.
NOTE:
If your secure slide latch is not properly engaging
with the receiving component, ensure that your gate is
level, mounted properly, and that you have not
over-tightened the threaded spindle rods.
STEP 4
When you are satisfied with the general placement of your gate,
fully tighten the threaded spindle rods attached to the lower
corners of the gate by further rotating the adjustment wheels.
Continue by tightening the upper threaded spindle rods. As
you tighten the threaded spindle rods, you will notice the gap
between the door frame and the secure slide latch begin to
narrow. In order for the gate to function properly, stop tightening
the upper threaded spindle rods just before the outer housing
of the secure slide latch and the receiving component touch.
STEP 1
Push the circular button on the secure slide latch while
simultaneously pulling back.
These two actions
combined will disengage the lock and allow the gate to
open freely. Push or pull to open the gate door. To close,
simply push or pull the door back into its original
position. The secure slide latch will re-engage
automatically and lock the door into its closed position.
NOTE:
If your secure slide latch is not properly
engaging with the receiving component, ensure that
your gate is level, mounted properly, and that you
have not over-tightened the threaded spindle rods.
STEP 2
At the bottom of the gate door, rotate the
base lock to the horizontal position. To allow
the door to swing open in only one direction
rotate the base lock on one side. To allow the
door to swing open in both directions, rotate
the base lock on both sides.
NOTE:
Place lock down on side occupied
by the child.
