- Page 2 KG brand II. Determine type of mounting The following mounting example shows the mounting type 1, that is the mounting at gates with posts and centrally located door hinges. In this variant, usually the 60 mm bracket (bracket 1) is sufficient.
- Page 3 KG brand Step 1: Determine mounting position of gate closer First, you need to determine the position of the gate closer. It can be positioned at the top of the gate, in the middle or at the bottom. It is important that it is mounted levelled! As well, the two brackets (bracket 1 and bracket 2) need to find sufficient hold on the gatepost and on the gate respectively.
- Page 4 KG brand Note: As long as the distances are correct the gate closer can be mounted in any of the two mounting holes. When using a larger bracket (80 or 100 mm), it is of advantage to choose one of the middle holes so that the gate closer can be fine- tuned afterwards.
- Page 5 KG brand Step 4: Position and mount bracket 2 on the gate Having positioned and fixed the first bracket (bracket 1) correctly, you´ve already done the biggest part of the mounting! Now, the second bracket (bracket 2) has to be positioned correctly on the gate. Therefore, the distance between the two mounting holes (that is the chosen mounting hole on bracket 1 and the mounting hole on bracket 2) must be between 540 mm and 545 mm.
- Page 6 KG brand Having measured the distance correctly, mark, centre-punch and then drill both holes for bracket 2 using a 4.2 mm drill. Mount and tighten bracket 2 using the tapping screws enclosed. Step 5: Insert and tighten the garden gate closer For easier mounting, the garden gate closer is pre-loaded when delivered.
