Parts Included
- 1 x Safety Gate

- 4 x Adjuster Bolts
- 4 x Adjuster Screws
- 4 x Extension Pins
- 4 x Adhesive Pads
- 4 x Mounting Cups

Installation
Before installation, measure the space to be enclosed to determine if extensions are required:
- No extensions: 73cm - 82cm
- 1x 10cm extension: 83cm - 92cm
- 2x 10cm extensions: 93cm - 102cm
Steps:
- Screw Adjuster Bolts and Screws together and place them into the mounting holes in each corner of the gate.
- Place the gate in the opening, ensuring the bottom rail is flat on the floor.
- Mark the position of each Mounting Cup on the wall or stair post.
- Stick the Mounting Cups in position using the Adhesive Pads. For added security, fix each cup to the wall using the provided screws and a Phillips head screwdriver.
- Align the gate with the Mounting Cups. Tighten the Adjuster Screws clockwise, starting with the bottom screws, then the top.
- Tighten equally until there is only a 1.5mm gap in the locking mechanism.
Note: Do not extend Adjuster Bolts more than 62mm.
Operation
To open the gate:
- Using one hand, place your thumb on the button and grip the gate with your fingers.
- Press the button with your thumb and squeeze the index finger.
- Open the gate in either direction.
Cleaning

Common problems
Gap at the door opening upon unpacking
This is normal for pressure-mounted gates and will disappear when the gate is installed correctly.
Gate feels loose or unstable
Regularly check the tension of all mounting bolts and adjust if required. Ensure the gate is fixed to a solid, secure surface.
Before use
- Measure the opening width to determine if extensions are needed.
- Ensure the mounting surface (wall, door frame, stair post) is rigid and flat.
- Verify that the gate is intended for children 6-24 months or pets.
- Check that all parts listed are present.
- Ensure you have a Phillips head screwdriver for permanent mounting.
Specs in practice
- Adjuster Bolt limit

Images and diagrams
- The gate uses a pressure-mounting system where the gap at the top locking mechanism is normal before installation.
- Mounting cups must be secured with screws into the wall for added security.
