Assembling and Installing Your Gate
**Note: IMPORTANT you will notice a slight gap between the gate door latch and the
frame tube. THIS IS NOT A DEFECT. Your gate is a pressure mounted gate and
this gap will disappear once you tighten your gate in the doorway.
Step 1.
Begin by locating the 4 Threaded Spindle Rods. Before you begin, turn the
Adjustment Wheels clockwise until they are almost against the flat end of the
Threaded Spindle Rods. WARNING: The Adjustment Wheel should NOT touch the flat
end of the Thread Spindle Rod. If it does it might get stuck.
Step 2.
You are going to insert the 4 Threaded Spindle Rods into the holes in the 4 ends of the
gate frame as shown in Diagram B1. **IMPORTANT: 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. Push the Threaded Spindle Rods all the
way into the frame tube until the Adjustment Wheel hits the end of the frame tube as
shown in Diagram B2.

Step 3.
Positioning and Attaching the Wall Cups to your door opening.
Your gate is a pressure mounted gate. Therefore it is not necessary to use the screw
attached Wall Cups to your door opening if you choose not to. However, IF YOU ARE
USING THE GATE AT THE TOP OF STAIRS YOU MUST USE THE WALL CUPS. Regardless
of whether you are using your gate at the top of stairs or not, using the Wall Cups will
affix your gate more firmly in the doorway. So you may choose to use them in all
applications. If you choose not to use the Wall Cups you may skip to Step 4 now.
Before attaching your Wall Cups to your doorway opening you must make sure you
have the screw holes marked correctly. It is important to install the gate with a spacing
of not more than 3" from the floor and to make sure the gap between the side wall
and the gate is not more than 3" on each side of the gate. To do this, simply position
your gate in the doorway so that it is level and centered as shown in Diagram C-1.
Then, place the Wall Cups over the flat end of the Threaded Spindle Rods which
should already be fully inserted into the ends of the gate frame tubes as shown in
Diagram C-2. Pull the Threaded Rods out until the Flat end with the Wall Cup is against
the wall. Pull all four Threaded Spindle Rods out in this manner. Then take a pencil
and make a light mark on the wall around the parameter of the Wall Cups. Once you
have marked the correct spots on your walls you can move the gate aside. Next, you
will need to mark the Screw Holes. To this simply take a Wall Cup and center it on each
pencil circle you marked on your wall. Use a pencil to mark the small Screw Hole in the
center of the Wall Cup. You are now ready to fasten your Wall Cups to the Wall using
the self tapping screws included in the hardware packet.
