Use a spirit level to ensure that the post supports sit completely flat on the solid base.<\/p>\n
Once the post supports are positioned correctly, clearly mark the four screw hole positions. Pre-drill 12mm x 60mm fixing holes and fix a raw plug to suit. Securely fasten the post support using the supplied 80mm expansion bolts and tighten with a wrench.<\/p>\n
Place the aluminium gate post over your post support, using a spirit level to ensure the post remains straight. One post will be positioned to take the gate post hinges, the other to accept the gate keep.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Securely fix the 3 gate hinges to your post using the supplied screws. Space the three hinges equally along the length of the post.<\/p>\n
Position and fix the gate frame to the hinges using the fixings provided.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Start off by considering where a suitable place along the frame you would wish the handle and lock to sit. We recommend choosing a comfortable height and using the component dimensions below to guide where to cut and drill along the length of the gate frame and post.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/span>4<\/span>Fix The Gate Keep, Lock & Handle Securely<\/p><\/h2><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>Position and install the lock keep into the aluminium gate post by firstly pre-drilling two holes at the base and top of where you wish the aluminium strike plate to sit along the post. Use the strike plate as a marker to position the fixings. Then, machine a slot 98mm x 18mm into the post in order to sit the plastic gate keep into the post. Cover by fixing the aluminium strike plate using the screws provided.<\/p>\n
Install the catch by machining a slot of 116mm x 12.5mm into the gate frame. Sit the catch mechanism within the frame and fix through the 3 fixing holes along its length into the gate frame. Use the internal dimensions provided in order to cut through the frame and position your lock and the door handle.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
