Step1.
Position the template on the ground
approximately where the arm is to be
installed with the short length in the
fully open position and the long length
at the fully closed position.
Hint: The pivot point of the template
for a standard gate should be
approximately 250mm x 250mm from
the gate hinge in both the J and K
direction. Please note the above
measurements are for a guide only.

Step 2.
Short Template. OPEN gate fully to 90 degrees and put a sticker on the gate
to mark the approximate location to mount the Gate Bracket (2 lines at the
end of the template indicates the gate bracket bolt).
Step 3.
CLOSE the gate to the gate stop.
• Compare the long template
mark with the mark on the gate
that was done on Step #2.
• Check that the gate mark is
at least 10mm LESS than the
mark on the template. This is to
ensure that the gate will have a
solid push onto the gate stopper
in the closed position.
LONG Template. Gate fully CLOSED
Ensure that the mark on the gate is less
than the mark on the long template
