Installation

Mounting Bracket

1. The Bollard is designed to house a pushplate used to activate a door by either a remote-controlled transmitter or hard-wired directly to the door control.
2. If hard-wired, pass the wire through the 1-inch diameter hole in the mounting bracket.
3. Mark and drill 3/8" diameter holes in four locations.
4. Hammer in and set anchors in the four hole locations.
5. Install and tighten nuts to secure the mounting bracket.

Post Assembly

1. Align the post to the mounting bracket.
2. Attach the post to the mounting bracket using the four provided post mounting screws.

Pushplate Installation

1. Thread the pushplate screws into the mounting box, leaving a majority of the screw exposed.
2. Attach the pushplate to the mounting screws.
3. Use the hex key provided to fully tighten the screws.

Transmitter Installation

1. If using a transmitter, attach it to the mounting tray with the included velcro pad. Hard-wired systems do not require this step.
2. Attach the plastic cap to the top of the post with three cap mounting screws.
3. Tighten screws with the hex key included in the pushplate package.

Note: Panther pushplates do not require a transmitter.
