Troubleshooting
Gate does not stand upright or feels wobbly.
Ensure all four pressure-fit points are tightened evenly. Check that the wall or frame surfaces are flat and stable. Re-adjust tension as needed.
The locking mechanism is difficult to operate.
Check for any obstructions or debris around the latch and locking points. Ensure the gate is correctly positioned and the frame is square. A gentle wipe-down may help.
Auto-close function is not working reliably.
Verify the gate is installed perfectly level and plumb. Minor adjustments to tension may be needed. Ensure the gate swings freely without catching on anything.
Visual indicator shows the gate is not securely closed, but it appears to be.
This may indicate uneven pressure. Re-tighten the pressure-fit screws, ensuring equal pressure on all sides, and check the gate's level. Consult the manual for specific indicator calibration.
