5/16″-18 x 2-1/4″ hex bolt, 5/16” flat washers, and 5/16″-18 nylon insert locknut oriented
as shown (FIG. 5.15). Use the uppermost hole available or field drill at a higher location
on the post if desired.

the bracket against the post but still allow it to rotate).

slot in the long leg of the closure bracket (FIG. 5.15).
5.5.10. Attach the long leg of the closure bracket to the closure post with a 5/16″-18 x 2-1/4″
hex bolt, 5/16” flat washers, and 5/16″-18 nylon insert locknut oriented as shown (FIG.
5.15).
