1 Determine gate size prior to installing gate posts. Preplanning prevents cutting boards (for privacy panels) and ensures that the pickets are spaced evenly and accept hardware correctly. The hinge swings 90° so remember to plan the gate directional swing. The hinge mounts to the large strap and therefore the hinge and the large strap will face the direction of the gate swing (Fig. 1). Fig. 1 Hinge Gate should not exceed 5'.
3 Cut the panel rails (sold separately) square so that the picket/board to end of rail are even or symmetrical on both sides of the gate. When possible, privacy and semi-privacy panels should be cut in full board increments (posts may require spacing adjustments). For pickets, take into account the installation of the hardware prior to cutting (Fig. 4). Fig. 4 Panel Cut 4 Determine the length and placement of the gate uprights and be sure to allow for space to accommodate the upright cap (3⁄8") (Fig.
7 Slide the upright into the C-bracket of the bottom rail, ensuring the bottom C-bracket is flush to the bottom of the upright. Leave a minimum of 3⁄8" of the upright extending above the top C-bracket (Fig. 8). Top of Upright Fig. 8 C-bracket ⁄8" 3 8 9 10 Begin aligning the straps. The large strap is used for the hinge side. Align the top and bottom holes and top edge of the large strap to the two holes on the C-bracket. Pre-drill with a 3⁄32" bit then secure with 2 of the #8 x 3⁄4" screws.
11 12 6 Using the 4 holes as a guide, pre-drill and install four #10 x 3⁄4" screws to mount the straps to the back of the upright, being sure to overlap the straps (except for the locations where hinges will be installed. These screws will be added later). Repeat this step for each corner (Fig. 12).
