🛠️ Tools Required

🖊️ Multi marker pens
📏 Measuring tape
📐 Level
🛠️ Multi-purpose drill
🔩 Drill bits (2, 4, 6, 8, 10mm – Steel/Wood)
🧱 Masonry drill bits (6mm, 10mm)
🔧 Screwdrivers (Star & Flat head)
🔧 Ring spanners (10mm & 13mm)

 

Step 1. Measure the Door Frame Width

Use a measuring tape to get the frame width where the gate will be installed. 

Make sure you measure inside the door frame. 🚪

Step 2. Attach Hinges to the Gate

a. Screw the hinges into the gate.

b. Do not fully tighten them yet — just enough to hold. 1

c. Adjust the hinges to align with the door frame. 📐

Step 3. Set Up Lock-Keep, Lock Tongue, and Hinges

a. Centralize the lock-keep over the lock tongue. 

b. Use adhesive tape to hold the lock-keep in place. 

c. Ensure there is at least 5mm gap between the lock and lock-keep. 

d. Connect male to female hinges on top, center, and bottom. 

e. Hold them in place with tape.

 

Step 4. Fit Gate Into Door Frame

Place the gate into the door frame. 🚪

• For masonry: install the gate parallel to the frame. 🧱
• For wood: install the gate perpendicular to the frame. 🪵
  
  

Step 5. Adjust Gate Position

Adjust female hinge bolts to widen or narrow the gate’s reach. 🔧

• Reach for masonry fitment: 885mm–930mm. 📏
• Reach for wood fitment: 865mm–910mm. 📏

Step 6. Tighten Hinges & Check Level

a. Tighten all female hinge bolts.

b. Use a spirit level or a 30mm-thick book to check alignment. 📐

c. Mark the top, center, and bottom hinge positions. ✏️

d. Remove the gate carefully.

Step 7. Attach Gate to the Frame

a. Drill holes at the hinge markings.

b. Insert and tighten the hex bolts. Use a motion like opening a bottle top to secure bolts.

Step 8. Install the Lock-Keep

a. Ensure the lock-keep is still taped to the gate.

b. Close the gate and mark the lock-keep position.

c. Remove the gate and the lock-keep.

d. Drill holes on the marks and bolt the lock-keep into place. 🔩

 

Step 9. Adjust Lock Tongue Direction

Rotate the tongue so the angled side faces the closing direction.

If the flat side hits the lock-keep, the gate will not close. ⚠️

 

Step 10. Fine-Tune Lock Cylinder 🔑

a. Remove the lock from the gate.

b. Turn the key about 10° until the center bar is flush.

c. Insert the cylinder into the gate lock.

k. Fix the lock using screws.

Step 11. Install Lock Protection Plate
