Troubleshooting
Gate does not close properly.
Check for any obstructions in the gate's path. Ensure the ground pin is correctly inserted into its socket. Verify that the gate posts are plumb and the gate is hanging straight.
Lock mechanism is stiff or difficult to operate.
Inspect the lock and handle for dirt or debris. Apply a suitable lubricant to the lock mechanism. Ensure the gate is fully closed and aligned before attempting to lock.
Gate posts seem unstable.
Re-check the depth of the post embedding (35-40 cm recommended). Ensure the ground around the posts is firm and has been adequately compacted. If necessary, reinforce the posts with additional soil or concrete.
Rust spots appearing on the surface.
While steel is corrosion-resistant, minor spots can occur. Clean the affected area with a soft brush and mild soap, then dry thoroughly. A protective coating or paint suitable for metal can be applied if desired.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Assembly is required for this garden gate. This typically involves connecting the gate panels to the posts and ensuring the lock mechanism is correctly fitted. The posts need to be securely embedded in the ground to the recommended depth of 35-40 cm for optimal stability. Ensure the gate is installed on a level surface.
Compatibility:
This gate is designed for standard garden or patio openings. The adjustable width feature (304-309 cm) allows for some flexibility. Ensure the opening you intend to fit the gate into falls within these dimensions. The 6 cm post width should also be considered for the installation space.
Care:
To maintain the gate's appearance and longevity, regular cleaning is recommended. Wipe down the steel surface with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish. Check the lock mechanism periodically and lubricate if necessary to ensure smooth operation. The steel is inherently corrosion-resistant, but prompt cleaning after exposure to harsh weather can further extend its lifespan.
