EASYGATE ASSEMBLY GUIDE
Each EasyGate is essenally made up of four sets of components -
1. Main outer frame secons with concealed xing channel.
2. Corner stakes to strengthen the gate.
3. The inll slats. Every slat will require two xing points to each side of the channel.
4. Clip on covers for the concealed xing channels to hide all fasteners.
Note—You may also have joining or bracing secons dependent on design and gate size.
Step one is to assemble sides 1,2 and 3 of the main frame with the outer face laying down onto a at and level protecve surface and the
inside (xing side) facing up by inserng two of the corner stakes to give the frame a rough "U" shape (do not x any points at this stage).
Next carefully start to slide your inll slats into posion taking note of any paern or design unl they are all in rough posion (do not
worry too much about measuring gaps at this point as that will come later).
To complete the main frame and loose setup insert the corner stakes into main frame secon number 4 and assemble with sides 1 & 3.
Now use a tape measure to measure diagonally from corner to corner. The aim of this is to get both diagonal measurements equal which
means the gate main frame is square. By carefully moving your main frame you should be able to achieve square and your corners should
all be nicely aligned. It is now that you can fasten the main frame to each corner stake at four points on each corner - two securing each
secon of frame to the corner stake. We suggest using a 6-4 countersunk head rivet but some prefer self drilling screws. Your main frame
should now be more stable but sll not s.
In most cases your desired paern may not give you a perfect gap measurement and consideraon needs to be given here to fastening
your rst inll slat. Spend a lile me measuring and doing the maths to ensure your rst slat is in the correct posion as this will be the
point from which every other slat posion is measured. NB: On wide gates where braces are required ensure that the top and boom slat
are both secured inside the top and boom main frame channel. Once you have this slat in posion fasten through the channel into the
slat at two posions on each end of the slat. Suggest - Truss head rivet 4-2 but self drilling screws are ne.
Now you can simply adjust each slat in turn using a packer the same dimension as your desired gap to separate your slats. Fasten each
slat at two points at each end. Every three or four slats use both a tape measure to ensure you are maintaining the correct paern.
Last thing you need to do is snap over your cover to conceal your xings. Please note that the covers are slightly longer on one side and
the long side goes to the outside of the channel.
If your gate requires slat braces these can now be posioned as required and one rivet into each slat starng with the top and the boom
slat for correct posion. Because the top and boom salt are secured in the top and boom channel once fully riveted the brace will e
everything together and provide more stability.

TIPS N TRICKS
* If your paern is vercal instead of horizontal
assemble sides 1,2 and 4 in step one.
* Check your frame corners are free of any swarth or
burrs and the corners slide in smoothly. Alight tap is
acceptable but heavy hammering is not required.
EASYGATE BRACE INSTALLATION
On wide gates with horizontal slats it is necessary to install a brace/s to prevent slat sag and also
to reinforce the whole gate.
When using braces it is important to have the top and boom slats secured into the top and
boom main frames.
Slat braces should be posioned at equal distances to provide best eect.
Secure the brace using one rivet into each slat starng with the top and the boom slat for
correct posion. Because the top and boom salt are secured in the top and boom channel once
fully riveted the brace will e everything together and provide more stability.
