Dig post holes 18" to 24" in diameter and 36" to 48" deep
(depending on local ordinance or expected frost depth in winter).
Backfi ll the holes with 6" of gravel. See fi g. 1.
The gate can be set up left swing or right swing. Consider swing
direction when determining which post will be your hinge post.
Mix concrete in the hole for the hinge post per the instructions
on the bag. Install the post into the hole and tap the post to the
proper depth. We recommend inserting a piece of 4x4 to support
the gate hinge post. Using a level, ensure post is plumb. Brace
the post with temporary supports as the concrete sets (per the
instructions).
Repeat with second hole.
Check local ordinances and regulations before building your
fence. Before construction, contact your local utility companies
to mark any underground cables and pipelines. In addition, it is
a good idea to discuss plans with any neighbors along your
proposed fence line.
