Tools Required
Decide where you want to install the gate and go through the following checklist:
The opening must be between 29 and 42 inches (74 and 107 cm).
Is the gate at the top or bottom of the stairs?
Use at the top or bottom of stairs
ONLY
if:
• The gate is mounted so that it is positioned over the floor at the top or bottom of the stairwell.
• The stairwell allows for gate to be mounted
LESS
than 3 inches (7.62 cm) above the floor.
The hardware on both sides of the gate must be mounted in solid wood, such as a door jamb, solid wood banister
post, or wall stud behind drywall.
Are there baseboards?
The gate wall brackets must be mounted to a flat surface. If your baseboard moldings have uneven surfaces where the wall
brackets need to be mounted, you need to choose another location. Try moving the wall brackets to a different spot on the
molding or above the baseboard molding.
Hinge bar must be flat against wall. Bottom of hinge bar can be
NO MORE
than 1 inch (2.5 cm) from floor.
DO NOT
mount on uneven molding or woodwork trim.
DO NOT
use if one or both sides of the opening requires mounting in sheet rock, plaster, lath
board, or any wall without solid stud support to screw into.
Before You Begin
DO NOT
use on stairs if the gate is in a location over the open area above a step.
