Slide Gate Installation
___________________________________________________________
Before you begin the installation look at the skid that the gates and enclosures arrived on. Check for
any damage. When you check for damage compare the parts to the General Arrangement drawing to
make sure that everything is there that you need. If something is missing please contact Freightlift
America!
Installation of a Horizontal gate is made easier by first assembling the gate on the floor and then
raising the assembly into position. When there is not enough room you will have to use the following
instructions as a guide to assemble in the upright position.
SINGLE PANEL INSTALLATION
1. The first thing to do is locate the gate posts. Position these on the floor in front of the lift. Make sure
that the post are in the correct position. The post with the Interlock mounting block bracket is the
end that the gate locks on. The opposite end post and the middle post are orientated as show
below. ( Figure 1 )
Note: The lock side has an Interlock mounting block bracket for the interlock.
