NOTE: If necessary, the wrench is provided for final
tightening of all tension knobs.
6.
To fasten your gate firmly in the opening or doorway,
start by turning the BOTTOM adjustment wheels first.
Continue to turn the bottom adjustment wheels
counter clockwise until the adjustment wheels are
firmly against the frame. IMPORTANT: There should
be equal space on each side of the gate. To easily
determine this, look at the length of threaded rod
showing. If more threaded rod is showing on one side
you can adjust using the adjustment wheels. Simply
turn the side that has too much threaded rod showing
clockwise, and then turn the other side counter
clockwise until all sides are equal.
7.
Repeat Step 6 with the TOP adjustment wheels.
Again, there should be equal space on each side of
the gate. As you tighten the top you will notice that the
gap between the door latch and the frame will begin to
narrow. As the gap continues to narrow, continue
turning the upper adjustment wheels until the door
latch and the frame are engaged. NOTE: If you have
not done so already, you can cut the zip tie that held
the door and frame together.
IMPORTANT: The frame must not touch the door
latch. If it does touch you have turned the adjustment
wheels too much. To correct this simply turn the upper
adjustment wheels clockwise a few turns until you
have a 1/16" gap. Your gate is now ready to use.
To Verify Installation
Push the gate frame to ensure that it is secure in the
opening and then push the door to ensure that the
upper and lower latches lock securely in the housing
of the frame.
NOTE: If gate is too difficult to unlatch, the threaded
spindle bolts may be too tight.
Opening and Closing the Door
Pull the release button back with your thumb while
pressing up on the button underneath. Swing open in either
direction.
When the door engages with the frame and it will latch
automatically. If it does not latch, the gate might not be
positioned evenly within the opening and perpendicular to the
floor. If needed, adjust accordingly. CAUTION: After closing
the gate, ALWAYS check to be certain that it is latched
correctly.
