Step 3
Attach a vertical closed position stop plate to the
SECOND gate.
Using appropriate hardware for your type of gate attach the vertical closed position stop plate to the
SECOND gate frame at the point where it will come in contact with the ground stop post.
Do not tighten
it completely at this time. You must slide the closed position stop plate toward the ground stop until they
touch (Illustration C). Once you have moved the stop plate to the correct position, tighten its hardware
completely.
NOTE: For a push-to-open installation (gates open out from the property) attach the closed position stop
plate to the
outside of the gate.

Step 1
Attach the horizontal closed position stop plate
to the MASTER gate leaf.
Detach the gate operators from the gates
and move the gates to their closed position
(Illustration A). Using appropriate hardware
for your type of gate (U-bolts for tube or chain
link; screw or bolts for wood or metal -
not
supplied) attach the closed position stop
plate
(horizontally) about mid height on
the MASTER gate frame.
Do not tighten it
completely at this time. Slide the stop plate
toward the frame of the SECOND gate leaf
until they touch (Illustration B). Once you have
moved the stop plate to the correct position,
tighten its hardware completely.
NOTE:
The optional ground stop post is used to provide a secure point for the
SECOND gate to close against. If you will be using the GTO Horizontal Gate Lock
accessory with your gate opener system, the closed position ground stop is REQUIRED,
as shown in Steps 2 and 3.

Step 2
Install a low profile ground stop (not provided)
beneath the SECOND gate stop plate.
The ground stop needs to be positioned near
the end of the gate as shown in Illustration A and
may be made of metal or concrete and should
be firmly secured in the ground (we recommend
setting it in concrete).
