Madison Vinyl Picket Gate Instructions
Madison Vinyl Picket Gate
GENER AL INFORMATION
1 - Read Over Fence Instructions First
Your gate and fence will work better together as an integrated
fence instructions.
2 - Pre-Assemble the Gate Frame
(without pickets)
This will ensure three things:
a) That you have everything necessary to complete the gate.
b) That you will have assembled the gate in the correct order.
It’s easier to trouble shoot when things are not screwed together.
3 -
Ideally, Install Your Gate Posts Before Your Fence Posts
Your fence panels will be more forgiving for a custom fit than your gate. Ideally, position and install your
gate posts before you do anything else, or very early on in the process of setting up your fence run.
4 - Ideally, Do Not Hang Your Gate System By Itself (With no
other fence panels)
Your gate will perform better and last longer if the fence assembly that supports the hinge side of the gate
is connected in-line with another fence assembly. See illustration below. The weight strain will be transferred
unto two posts versus just one. Installing fence panels on both sides of your gate is the ideal in all situations.
d) The gate height and width measure similar to drawing on Page 1.
Use Zippity clips to attach the gate to the fence panel posts.
