Troubleshooting
Gate is wobbly or loose
Ensure all pressure screws are tightened evenly. Check that the mounting surfaces are level and sturdy. If using extensions, ensure they are securely attached to the main gate.
Self-closing mechanism is not working properly
Verify that the gate is installed on a level surface. Check for any obstructions around the hinges or closing mechanism. Ensure the gate is not installed at an angle that prevents gravity from assisting closure.
One-hand opening is difficult
Confirm the gate is securely installed and not binding. Ensure the locking mechanism is fully disengaged. Check for any debris that might be obstructing the handle or latch.
Gate does not fit the opening correctly
Double-check the width of your opening and compare it to the gate's specified range (139.8cm - 146.8cm). If the opening is wider, you will need compatible extension kits.
