Preparation for Installation
The proper position of the post brackets is a decisive factor to the efficiency and leverage of the gate opener.
The distance (usually it is 2.5cm /1 inch or more) between the gate opener and the gate is also determined by
the proper position of the post brackets.
Both round and square post can be used because of the curved design of the post brackets. When mounting
the post brackets, use bolts long enough to pass through the entire post. When mounting the post brackets to
wooden posts, a larger-size washer or metal plate should be used between the bolts and the wooden post to
ensure the stability of the fastening hardware when thrust is used.
If the gate post is smaller than 15 cm (6”) diameter or square, it should be made of metal and set in cement to
ensure the stability of the post.
