PUSH-TO-OPEN INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
PUSH-TO-OPEN gates open out from the property (opener arms extend to open). A Push-To-Open Bracket is required for
this type of installation. In a Push-To-Open installation, the opener is installed
while the gate is in the closed position and the opener fully retracted.
Swinging gates MUST NEVER open into public access areas!
Step 1
Insert the
3
/8" x 2" bolt through the center hole of the post brackets and post
pivot bracket as shown. Fasten a
3
/8" lock washer,
3
/8" washer and
3
/8" nut
on the end of the bolt. DO NOT over tighten the nut because the post pivot
bracket will have to be adjusted later.
Step 2
Attach post bracket assembly and gate bracket to the opener with the clevis
pins and bushings. Secure the clevis pins with hairpin clips.
Step 3
With the gate in the closed position (up to 110º from its open position), and the opener fully retracted, adjust the post
bracket assembly and gate bracket until the opener is level. While holding the opener level, use C-clamps
to temporarily keep the post bracket assembly and gate bracket in their respective positions on the fence post and gate.
IMPORTANT: While determining the mounting point for the post pivot bracket assembly, be sure that the position allows
for minimum 2 inches of clearance between the gate and the opener in both the open and closed positions, as shown in
the diagrams below. This clearance will give the opener the most efficient leverage point for opening and closing the gate
and more importantly provides the least possible pinch area.
