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.
