What are the dimensions of the posts?

Is assembly difficult?

Assembly requires careful installation of posts and mounting the gate. It is recommended to have two people for installation due to the weight of the components.

How should I maintain the steel gate?

Clean with a damp cloth and periodically check for rust. Apply metal paint to any rust spots to prevent further corrosion.

Troubleshooting

Gate does not close properly.

Check if the posts are plumb and stable. Ensure the gate is correctly aligned with the posts and hinges are not binding. Adjust hinges if necessary.

Lock is difficult to operate.

Ensure the gate is fully closed and aligned. Lubricate the lock mechanism with a graphite-based lubricant. Check for any obstructions in the lock or strike plate.

Gate sags or leans.

Verify that the gate posts are securely installed and have not shifted. If the posts are loose, re-anchor them, potentially using concrete. Check hinge integrity.

Rust spots appearing on the surface.

Clean the affected area with a wire brush. Apply a rust-inhibiting primer followed by a suitable metal paint in the anthracite colour to protect the steel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Site Preparation: Choose a level location for installation. Ensure the ground can support the gate posts securely. Consider digging post holes and setting them in concrete for maximum stability.

  3. Gate Mounting: Attach the gate to the posts using the provided hinges. Adjust hinges as needed for smooth operation.

  • Inspect the gate and posts regularly for any signs of wear or rust. Apply a suitable metal paint or sealant if minor rust appears, especially in coastal or high-humidity areas.
  • Lubricate the hinges and lock mechanism annually to ensure smooth operation.
