Troubleshooting
Gate is wobbly or unstable
Ensure all four tension screws are tightened evenly and firmly against the wall/frame. Check that the gate is level. If using extensions, confirm they are securely attached.
Lock indicator does not show secure lock
Re-adjust the tension screws to ensure the gate is fully engaged. Check that the locking mechanism is clear of obstructions and operating smoothly.
Auto-close function is not working
Verify that the gate is not hitting anything when closing and that the hinges are clear of debris. Ensure the gate is not fully opened past the 90-degree point where 'stay open technology' might engage.
Opening mechanism is stiff
Ensure the gate is correctly installed and not under excessive pressure that could warp the frame. Check the hinge and locking points for any debris or misalignment.
