Gate Preparation
The gate must be plumb, level and swing freely on its hinges. The Kit Simply is designed to move the weight of
the gate only. If hinges are stiff, loosen with lubricating oil. The gate must be able to move throughout its arc
without binding or dragging on the ground. The pillars / posts must be secured into the ground with concrete
so it will minimise twist or flex when the gate opener is activated. We recommend you position the opener
near the centreline of the gate. The addition of a horizontal or vertical cross support (if one is not already in
place) to provide a stable area for mounting the gate bracket is also important.
