face 90 degrees from it. Below is schematic of push to open configurations.
As shown in the diagram below, correctly mounting geometry assures that the desired
degrees of swing are achieved, that the gate speed is correct, and that the operator and

Locate the gate operator between the two hinges, the installation height range is 300 –
800mm. this will prevent the gate from twisting and flexing. Add a cross bar on the gate if
necessary.

sturdy enough, then it may result in bending or damage to the gate and gate operator.
