IMPORTANT:
REGARDING THE INCLUDED MOUNTING SCREWS!
Before marking where to attach the gate, make sure you
have a solid surface for mounting the gate to. *If using at
top of stairs install gate a minimum 1” (2.5 cm) from top
step!
The included screws are intended for the following
locations:
Directly into wood
The Short 2" (50 mm) Screws are used when mounting
directly onto wood, for example in a door frame or other
framed opening. The shorter screw in the pack is used
for the top of the FastMount® Locking Rail (A). When
installing into hardwood, first drill a 3/32" (2 mm) pilot
hole.
Into a stud behind drywall
Use a stud-finder to locate where there is a stud behind
the drywall. Then use the Medium 2.75" (70 mm) Screws
to mount the gate into the stud. The shorter screw in the
pack is used for the top of the FastMount® Locking Rail
(A).
Using Baseboard Spacers
If attaching the gate using Baseboard Spacers, see page
14, use the Long 3.25" (85 mm) Screws to secure into the
stud. The shorter screw included in pack is used for the
top of the FastMount® Locking Rail (A).
Any other surface
If mounting into drywall, brick or other surface, use
only the appropriate hardware for that surface. Consult
with a certified child proofer, a handyman or your local
hardware store if you are unsure. Never mount into
hollow wall or hollow brick.
