Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the protectors, ensure the mounting surface is completely clean and free of dust, grease, or oil; using a mild alcohol wipe is recommended for the best adhesion. Peel the backing off the 3M VHB strip, align it with the spot where the gate bolt will make contact, and press firmly for 30 seconds. Allow the adhesive to cure for several hours before applying the full pressure of the gate. For compatibility, ensure your gate legs are no wider than 3.5 cm. When it is time to move or remove the gate, carefully peel the pad away from the wall; the adhesive is designed to release cleanly without pulling off paint or leaving significant residue.
