Instructions / Assembly

Determine gate size prior to installing gate posts. Pre-

planning 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).

Gate should not exceed 5'.

NOTE:

For picket panels, a 3

⁄

⁄2⁄

" clearance is required for

the C-brackets on the horizontal rail (Fig. 2).

For either single or double gates, measure the width of

the opening (X). Subtract 7

⁄

⁄2⁄

" for single gates and 14"

for double gates to determine panel size (Fig. 3).

NOTE:

The provided hinge is self-closing. For a drive gate

application, the self-closing mechanism must be

deactivated (See “Hinge Tension Adjustment” on

Page 6.)
