Positioning and Attaching the Wall Cups to your door opening.

Your gate is a pressure mounted gate. Therefore it is not necessary to use the screw attached Wall Cups to
your door opening if you choose not to. However, IF YOU ARE USING THE GATE AT THE TOP OF
STAIRS YOU MUST USE THE WALL CUPS.
Regardless of whether you are using your gate at the top of stairs or not, using the Wall Cups will affix your
gate more firmly in the doorway. So you may choose to use them in all applications. If you choose not to use
the Wall Cups you may skip to Step 4 now.

Before attaching your Wall Cups to your doorway opening you must make sure you have the screw holes
marked correctly. It is important to install the gate with a spacing of not more than 3” from the floor and
to make sure the gap between the side wall and the gate is not more than 3” on each side of the gate. To do this,
simply position your gate in the doorway so that it is level and centered as shown in Diagram C-1. Then,
place the Wall Cups over the flat end of the Threaded Spindle Rods which should already be fully inserted into
the ends of the gate frame tubes as shown in Diagram C-2. Pull the Threaded Rods out until the Flat end with
the Wall Cup is against the wall . Pull all four Threaded Spindle Rods out in this manner. Then take a pencil
and make a light mark on the wall around the parameter of the Wall Cups. Once you have marked the correct
spots on your walls you can move the gate aside. Next, you will need to mark the Screw Holes. To this simply
take a Wall Cup and center it on each pencil circle you marked on your wall. Use a pencil to mark the small
Screw Hole in the center of the Wall Cup. You are now ready to fasten your Wall Cups to the Wall using the
self tapping screws included in the hardware packet.
