Removing or adding sections:
Note: Always begin separating gate from
either end. At the juncture of every section is
a removable, vertical bar.
To remove vertical bar, lift up on bar (5), while
sliding it out of lower hinge groove (6a.). Pull
bar down and out of cone (6.).
Lift off end section. If gate is now appropriate
length, go to step 8.
If additional section/s are required, go to
steps 11 & 12.
Depending on number of sections removed,
you will end up with one of two configurati-
ons at the end of gate (diagram 8 or 9).
Remove hinge cap (H) from bottom of original
end section. A screwdriver may be used to
help pry it off. Place cap over top hinge on
what is now the end piece.
Place spare hinge cover (G) over bottom
hinge. Go to step 10.

Unpack your folded HearthGate™ on a
stable surface, making sure handle is on top.
Each corner is connected by plastic, inter-
locking hinges.
How to adjust the sections:
A spring is fitted in all cones which delib-
erately creates tension when adjusting.
At corner, lift up slightly on section with hinge
teeth facing down (1) while gently pressing
down on connected section (2). Rotate sec-
tions to desired position. (3). Release to lock
into place.
Note: Each hinge adjusts from 0˚ to 270˚ in
10˚ increments.
Position HearthGate™ to desired shape,
taking into account recommended 20” mini-
mum distance described in ”Important
