SET-UP (continued):
Step 4: Place the gate in the opening so that
the bottom of the gate frame is completely flat
on the floor, as shown in Figure R
Optional mounting cup installation: Fasten
mounting cups to the doorframe or studs with
screws as shown in Figure G. If mounting into
wall, use wall anchors. Note: The adhesive
mounting pads are included only for
positioning the mounting cups and must
be used in conjunction with screws.
Step 5: Center the gate in the opening, so that the distance from the bottom of
gate frame to each side wall is equal, as shown in Figure I. Use the marks etched
into the wrench as a ruler. Slide the tension bolts out until the pads contact the
door frame or wall. Then screw the tension knob away from the pad until it
contacts the gate frame as shown in Figure
J.
Distance should be equal—^
Step 6: Tighten both of
the bottom tension knobs
inward toward the frame
at the same time, as
shown in Figure K. Then
tighten both of the top
tension knobs inward
toward the frame at the
same time, as shown in
Figure L, so that the upper
latch set goes below the
release button completely,
as shown in Figure N.
To verify installation: Push the frame to ensure that it is secure in the opening and
then push the gate panel to ensure that the upper and lower latch sets lock
securely in the housings on the frame, as shown in Figures M and N.
Note: Wrench is provided for final tightening of all four
tension knobs (if necessary), as shown in Figure H.

Note: If gate is difficult to unlatch,
top tension knobs may be too tight.
