Before installation, note the position of the door. The top and mid-rails should be

opening.
1. Assemble the appropriate fittings with the horizontal rails and tighten the set
screws using the provided 3/16" Allen wrench.
2. Slide the horizontal mid rails over the upright posts.
3. If necessary, install collar fitting over upright post that will not have an elbow.
4. Install the top rails over the upright posts and tighten the set screws.
5. Position the mid-rail 21", center-to-center, from the top rail.
6. If necessary, install end cap on single upright post.

3. Install safety gate using two U-bolt mounting brackets on applicable
upright post, figure 7.
4. Set the safety gate to the height of the top safety rail and
temporarily tighten using the provided hardware.
