• Familiarize yourself with the gate hardware frames and instructions.

• Note: concave side of spreader bars faces down.

• This frame is designed to open INWARD (into your fenced area), if your application calls for an OUTWARD opening you

can adjust the placement of the POST HINGES to the opposite side of the post. Additional modiﬁcations may be needed

for outward swinging gates.

• For double drive gates openings use two gate kits. The gates will assemble the same way, just reversed. For the

latch installation on a double-drive gate, ﬁrst attach the STRIKER BAR, bring both gates together and line up the

LATCH CATCH with the striker bar for correct alignment to gate frame and attach. Suggested space between double

gates is 1 inch.

• For double-drive gates drop rod kits are highly recommended (sold separately).

• As a Security precaution - Installing HINGE (E) with the top bolt facing down and the bottom bolt facing up will prevent

the potential theft by locking the frame into itself.

• Make sure all 4x4’s posts and 2x4’s rails are straight (bowing or crooked 4x4 & 2x4’s may make the adjust-a-gate out

of alignment)

• If cutting the spreader bars spray all cut ends with a Rust Oleum® type product to prevent rusting.

GETTING READY TO ASSEMBLE YOUR GATE KIT

STEP 1: POST HINGE (E) INSTALLATION

A) Locate the CENTER POINT (top to bottom) on your POST.

B) Measure up 20” and down 20” to ﬁnd the CENTER

POINT for each POST HINGE BRACKET (E).

C) Position POST HINGE BRACKETS so J-BOLTS point toward

the center point and the hinge plates are on the inside

gate swinging side of the post. Attach brackets using 2”

WOOD SCREWS (J)

Note: for best results this Adjust-A-Gate is designed to open

inward but can be modifed to open outward by placing the

hinges on the opposite side of the post

STEP 2: GATE HINGE (D) and FRAME (A) INSTALLATION

A) Loosely attach the FRAME HINGES (D) to the HINGE SIDE of

the GATE FRAME (A) - remember that the pre-drilled hole

for the truss cable is located at top inside of this frame

piece.

Slide the BOTTOM FRAME HINGE (D) into position onto the

BOTTOM POST HINGE (E), tighten bolt.

Slide the TOP FRAME HINGE (D) into position onto the

TOP POST HINGE (E), tighten bolt.

B) Insert the SPREADER BARS (B) into slip member on the

gate frame as shown.

STEP 2C: LATCH SIDE OF FRAME (A) INSTALLATION

Carefully add the LATCH SIDE OF THE FRAME (A)

Now, carefully (at this point the frame is still loose) extend

the gate frame to within 1 inch of the post where the latch

will be attached.

Now measure the distance between the plates where the

2x4’s will attach (top and bottom of frame), cut 2x4’s and

attach using 1 INCH ROUNDHEAD WOOD SCREWS (G) for the

plates, and 2 INCH FLATHEAD WOOD SCREWS (H) for the

spreader bars.

NOTE: Depending on the width of your gate, you may not

need all of the 2 inch wood screws, it is not necessary to have

a screw in every hole. Because it is an adjustable frame, not

all the pre-drilled holes on the spreader bars and vertical

frame sides will line up.

STEP 3: TRUSS CABLE and GATE LATCH INSTALLATION

Be sure to loosen the TURNBUCKLE to its widest opening

prior to assembly.

Assemble TRUSS CABLE as shown.

Slide the “S” HOOK of the TRUSS CABLE KIT (C) into the

hole at the lower corner of the latch side of the gate frame.

Hook the TURNBUCKLE into the hole at the opposite top

corner on the hinge side of the frame.

Form a loop on the loose end of the cable, thread through

the CABLE CLAMP, slip that loop onto the “S” HOOK and

pull cable tight, secure with clamp, cut off any excess.

Attach STRIKER BAR from the Gate Latch Kit (F) to the

inside gate frame at the desired height use the 4 HEX HEAD

SELF-TAPPING SCREWS (I) . Align the LATCH with the Striker

Bar and attach to post using 1.5 INCH ROUNDHEAD WOOD

SCREWS (K).

By adjusting the TURNBUCKLE you can ﬁne tune the gate

latch to give a perfect ﬁt.

STEP 4: ATTACHING YOUR BOARDS

TIP: To hide the gap on the HINGE SIDE of the gate, you may

overlap your fence board to cover this gap. APPLICABLE TO

INWARD SWINGING GATES ONLY

TIP: It is recommended that your gate boards be cut 2”

shorter than the fence boards to allow the top of your

gate to be even with the fence and allow clearance under

the gate.

Now you can attach the rest of your boards onto the 2x4’s

on the gate using nails or screws.

By adjusting the tunbuckle on the truss cable you can ﬁne

tune the gate.
