Determining Gate Size: First, determine the proper size of your new gate. You can
convert a whole fence panel into a gate using the Pro-Line Gate Kit, or you can
customize the size of your panel to any desired size (see figure 2a). It is very important to
make any desired alterations to the panel before continuing the installation process.
Post Spacing: Once you have determined the width of your gate, you must make sure
your posts are properly spaced. Your gate posts should be placed about 2” wider than
your gate panel (1.5” minimum, 3” maximum) to allow for hinge adjustments (see figure
2b). Example: If your gate panel is 36” wide, your posts should be placed 38” apart
(inside dimension). Both posts should be plumb and level.
If you are using wood panels proceed to step 4.
Once you have your desired size panel, you must install all 4 Endcaps prior to
installing your hinges. Proper installation of the 4 Endcaps is vital, as they will add
extra strength and stability to your fence panel, required to work with your hinges.
For each Endcap, apply glue to the fingers of the Endcap and insert into the fence
rail. Next, using the 16 provided #12 Pan Head / Self Drilling 1.5” long screws, secure
the curved end of the Endcap to the rail sections of your fence panel as shown in
figure 3a. *Note: Make sure the screws pass through the horizontal rail, the end
cap, and the vertical post to stabilize your panel.
*Note: Each Endcap
requires 4 screws (two per
side). The screws are to
be secured to the corners
of the fence panel to
ensure they catch the
bottom fingers of the
Endcaps. Be sure to
alternate your screw
placement to avoid the
screws hitting each other
inside the fence panel.
Figure 3b illustrates proper
screw placement with the
black dots representing
one side and the shaded
dots for the opposite.
Recommended screw
placements are 1” and 3”
from the end of your
fence panel.

First determine wether
you want your gate to swing into
or out of your property. Refer to
figures 4a & 4b and mount the
hinges to your gate as shown.

The easiest way to do this is to take
a piece of 4x8 plywood on two saw
horses. Screw a 2x4 up the 8’ side
of the plywood and 2x4 at the 4’
side. This should create a 90 degree
corner to square your gate against.
*Tip: Most contractors install the end caps on a table that has a square corner to use.

With your hinges intact, hold your fence panel up to your fence post to determine the
proper location your hinge Mounting Plates are to be secured to the post. Once level, mark
your drill holes on the fence post using a marker (see figure 6a). Once you have your drill
locations clearly marked, secure your hinges to your fence post using the provided #14 Pan
Head 1.5” long screws (see figure 6b). Be sure to pre-drill your holes before applying screws.
*NOTE: MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A WOODEN POST INSTALLED INSIDE THE VINYL FENCE POST THAT
YOU ARE USING TO HANG YOUR GATE. A STANDARD VINYL POST ALONE WILL NOT SUPPORT
THE WEIGHT OF YOUR GATE. A METAL POST STIFFENER MAY ALSO BE USED AS AN ALTERNATIVE
TO WOOD.

Leveling Your Gate
For adjustments, rotate the Adjustment Screw inward or outward using a 1/4” allen wrench as shown in figure 7.
The hinges are pre-configured all the way inward and offer up to 3/4” adjustability. This adjustment process can
be performed on both upper and lower hinges as necessary.
Next, place a level on top of the gate. If the latch side is too low, correct by adjusting the bottom hinge outward
by turning its Adjustment Screw counterclockwise and the top hinge inward by turning its Adjustment Screw
clockwise (See figure 7). If the latch side of your gate is too high, adjust the top hinge inward by turning its
Adjustment Screw clockwise and the bottom hinge outward by turning its Adjustment Screw counterclockwise.
*Helpful Hint: The adjustment screws can also be used to center the gate between the two posts to give a uniform
professional looking install.
*Note: Be sure to avoid over adjusting the Adjustment Screw (clockwise or counterclockwise); this could result in
damage to the screw itself.
You can adjust the Spring Tension of your hinges for a stronger self-
closing by turning the Tension Screw clockwise using a small flat
head screwdriver. Turn Tension Screw counterclockwise to lessen
the spring tension for a softer self closing.

Using the provided #12 Flat Head / Self Drilling 1.5” long screws,
attach your Hinge Assemblies to the center of each of your fence
rails as illustrated in figure 5a. Next, using the same size screws,
attach your Slide Plates to the opposite side of your fence panel. The
Slide Plates will connect to the Hinge Assemblies at the edge of the
fence panel. See figure 5b. Lastly, secure your side plates together
by applying the final screw to the side of your fence panel as shown
in figure 5c.

Depending on your fence panel type/size, the
following chart illustrates the proper hardware
needed to properly install your adjustable striker
to your gate.
Your gate kit includes mounting hardware for the
following rail and infill sizes:
a) Determine placement of adjustable striker on gate and use the
Mounting Configurations table below to determine which
hardware is required for your fence panel.
b) Mark and pre-drill your holes on gate panel using a 3/4” drill bit.
c) Apply the backing plate to the exterior side of the gate and insert
the proper length carriage bolts through to the interior side of the
gate. Make sure the square portion of the carriage bolt heads sit
snugly inside the square holes of the backing plate. Be sure to use
the 1-1/4” Carriage Bolts if installing your latch on the infill portion
of your fence section and use the 2-1/4” Carriage Bolts if installing
your latch on the rail section. Figure 2 demonstrates a latch as
installed on the infill portion of a vinyl fence section.
d) Insert the carriage bolts through the holes of the adjustable striker.
e) Secure the adjustable striker in place using the appropriate size
spacers, then apply the four acorn nuts and tighten using a 7/16”
wrench.
f) Attach the catch portion of your latch to the fence post using the
provided screws.
g) Adjust the striker arm as necessary until your gate latches as
desired. To adjust the striker arm, simply loosen the adjustment
screw located on the underside of the adjustable striker using
a 3/16” allen wrench, then re-tighten once adjustment has
been made. See figure 3.
