Your gate operator can be mounted to a variety of gate types. This section shows some of the most common, along with the
reinforcement methods recommended prior to or while mounting your gate operator.
Reinforcing Gates for the Gate Brackets
We recommend using a muffler clamp, wood, or metal, to reinforce thin-walled tube gates, or wood to reinforce panel gates as
shown. These reinforcement methods will prevent damage to the opener and gate. Additional hardware may be needed depending
on the installation. Additional hardware necessary but not included.
