1.  These hinges tend to be surface 
mounted. If replacing existing hinges, 
either choose slightly larger hinges, or 
ensure existing holes are filled first. If 
wood is bare under old hinge, prime 
wood first before attaching new hinge. If 
replacing existing hinges, gate can be left 
supported in place and the hinges changed 
in situ one by one.
2.  Choose position for the hinge and 
ensure horizontal before marking out 
holes for the long leaf on the gate.
3.  Drill pilot holes in the gate for the hinge 
f
ixings and fix the long leaf to the gate with 
the screws provided.
4.  Position gate in opening ensuring 
adequate clearance and support in place 
whilst marking on gate frame/post where 
the short leaf will go.  Put the gate to one 
side or leave in supported position.
5.  Drill pilot holes in the gate post and 
then position and support the gate in place 
to fix the short leaf firmly to the gate post
