Determine the mounting location of your J-bolt hinge in relation to both the post and gate frame.
Mark your post and gate frame for drilling.  Be sure to measure and line up your drilling points as
both the gate frame and post will be drilled on two sides of the post and the holes need to be level.

•

Use the supplied drill bit (or a quality cobalt tip) to drill your holes in the post first. Clean any burrs in
the hole and apply a small amount of touch-up paint to the hole.

•

Mount the flat portion of the j-bolt against the post using the supplied hinge hardware kit bolts.
These will be the silver bolts of varying length in the clear bag. (

NOTE

– You will not use all of the

bolts in the bag. There are enough bolts for a set [two] of the j-bolt hinges and in every length to
accommodate post sizes from 2” up to 6”).
