SPECIFICATIONS
Finish: Galvanized Webbing, Gray Powder Coated Frame Webbing: 3/8" x 3/4" 16-gauge Steel Frame: 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" 13-gauge Angle Iron Mounting Bracket: 2 1/2" x 7" Steel L-bracket** Locking Bar: 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" 13-gauge Angle Iron Hasp: 3/16" Steel Welded to Frame* Drop & Support Pins: 5/8"Diameter, Welded to Frame**
Step 1: Before installing, decide on gate placement. L-bracket that forms top hinge allows gate placement in the recess of door frame. Installation can also be made outside or inside of wall next to door or opening frame. (See Figure 1)
Step 3: Extend gate and hang L-bracket on top of gate to verify where it will be mounted. To release tension you may lift the wheel 1/2"- 3/4" off the floor. Mark and drill pilot holes into door frame or wall. It may be easier to dill pilot holes if you remove the gate from its floor mount. Place bearing washer and bottom gate pin back into floor mount. Slip L-bracket over top of gate and bolt (not included.) (See Figure 3)
Step 2: Have a helper extend the gate and stand it upright where it will be mounted. Drill 3/4" diameter x 3" deep hole, 11" from wall into the floor for gate pin to set into. Place a bearing washer over floor hole and set bottom gate pin into floor mount hole. (See Figure 2)
• Wood door frames or walls: 5/16" x 2" lag bolts. • Steel door frames or walls: Drill and tap for 5/16" x 2" lag bolts. • Brick or concrete frames or walls: 5/16" x 2" lag bolts set into 3/8" holes with lead anchors.

Step 4: Extend and retract gate to its stops to work out stiffness, then fully extend gate across opening. Align padlock holes and position the locking bar on door frame or wall. Mark and drill pilot holes. Secure with 5/16" x 2" lag bolts. (See Figure 4)
Step 5: Only gates 7' and wider include a center drop pin. If included, fully extend gate across opening and mark the floor where center drop pin is located. Drill a 3/4" diameter x 3" deep hole into the concrete floor. Lower center drop pin. (See Figure 5)
Step 6: Gate can be secured to locking bar using padlock. Open gates slowly at first to avoid warping.
All gates come in a galvanized finish that never needs maintenance - delivering a higher level of security with a lower cost of ownership.
