Troubleshooting
Gate does not close automatically
Ensure the gate is installed on a level surface and that the tension screws are properly adjusted. Check if the automatic closing mechanism is obstructed.
Gate feels wobbly or unstable
Re-adjust the tension screws. Ensure they are tightened evenly against the walls or door frame until the gate is firm. Check for any obstructions preventing even pressure.
One-handed opening mechanism is stiff
Check for any debris or obstructions in the locking mechanism. Gently clean and test again. Ensure the gate is correctly aligned.

This might indicate the gate is not fully latched. Ensure it is closed completely and that no obstructions are preventing the latch from engaging.
