Thank you! You just made installation much easier than I thought it would be.

[@larrycole1991]

Do the mounting bolts actually screw onto the frame and extenders? O think something is missing in mine... They slide in and out, they don't screw into the Frame itself or the extenders....

[@TheMadDadReview]

Nah they just slide in - they do not screw in - it will work - that is normal 😀

[@kansasoz2960]

Your question helped us install. Was ready to send back until we saw this video and your comment...the written directions should explain that.

[@jl8858]

This is what I was coming across with mine too

[@rheese12]

Thanks! I couldn’t figure out why there was a gap and thought it was definitely a defect. You just saved me a lot of time and hassle. Thumbs up 👍

[@TheMadDadReview]

Great! So glad we were able to help!

[@pdiz]

It's literally written on the instructions, though.

[@TheHawk1811]

Best video for this gate installation! The videos on their website sucks. Great job

[@TheMadDadReview]

Thank you! Really appreciate the compliment.

[@TrulyMadlyAshley]

Thank you!! If it weren’t for you I would have never figured it out. The instructions didn’t explain anything at all. 😂

[@TheMadDadReview]

So glad to help! 😀

[@lesley9258]

thanks! mine didn't come with install instructions 😂

[@krisdavis4347]

So happy to find this video because now the instructions make sense! Were you able to use the gate without the reinforcement slots? Maybe I missed them being in place on your video.

[@TheMadDadReview]

We have had many gates over the years like this and have never used the reinforcement slots. With that being said, if you have these at the top of the stairs, I would definitely use them. Also, if you have a strong child that tries to pull or lean on these gates, I would also use them. Otherwise, in our single story home with 2 girls, we have never had a problem.

[@zellamia]

Very helpful installation video! Thank you!!

[@TheMadDadReview]

You're very welcome! Glad we could help.

[@tonymcelveen2237]

Thankfully I didn't get just a 48" gate because I needed 53" width

[@2APerformanceEducation]

Thank you very much for this video. It was a great help.

[@TheMadDadReview]

Awesome glad we were able to help!

[@CathyMastores]

So, I have 2 of these gates already used. No zip ties holding together...ideas on how to install?

[@TheMadDadReview]

Just open the gate and you should be able to squeeze the two sides together in order to put them in the space you’re trying to install.

[@3zadam]

i just bought the 26-29inch version. It better be good!

[@kansasoz2960]

Thanks for the video. The written directions suck. We thought we were missing a piece too bc there was nothing to screw in and almost sent it back until I saw the other comment . I wish they would link your video on the Amazon page.

[@TheMadDadReview]

Oh good I’m glad this was helpful and you didn’t have to return the gate. I had this video uploaded to Amazon, but Amazon is weird in that they rotate videos in and out and I just looked and right now it is not on the Amazon product page. I wish they would keep it on there too! I’d see more sales. LOL.

[@monniica21]

Ok this did not help me. Like you skipped how to put on the ends and what about the silver bars that go in the bottom? I guess I need very detailed instructions for dummies. Lol.

[@TheMadDadReview]

There’s no trick to putting the ends on - if you’re talking about the pressure screws, you just put them in where the holes are - they don’t screw in or anything - it works on pressure alone. The bars at the bottom just go underneath the thing - like it just sits on there where the joints meet.

[@alicesmith4547]

You go too fast!! I can’t figure out the black things and stickers!!!

[@pecosriverrat]

My install was not easy at all. The 4 screws didn't stabilize into a receiving end so they fell out repeatedly. Bad design flaw IMO. The screws for the round receiver that attached onto door frame were super poor quality. Stripped out. Thankfully I had other screws. The piece that stabilize the extra side extensions should have a screw to secure it. Every time something moved out of place, it would fall off. It arrived damaged. I would not recommend. There are easier gates to install out there. I'm fairly handy & had problems.

[@TheMadDadReview]

Sorry yours was difficult - what kind did you end up getting and using?

[@Boom-oq5yj]

Didn't work for me. The gate wedged fine, but the door doesn't open/close.

[@TheMadDadReview]

Did you possibly over-tighten?

[@Boom-oq5yj]

@@TheMadDadReview if I loosen anymore it doesn’t stay wedged. Your has a trigger, which I assumes controls the bottom latch. Mine has no trigger (smaller sized version) and bottom part does not unlock.

[@TheMadDadReview]

@@Boom-oq5yj when you pull the little latch, try to lift up on the gate and then see if it will open - some of them are made to open by lifting a little.

[@Boom-oq5yj]

@@TheMadDadReview Ah yes! Thank you.

[@TheMadDadReview]

Yay! Glad it worked for you!

[@dopeazchick]

My metal screw is too long and wont go qll the way in the hole

[@TheMadDadReview]

A little late, but did you figure it out?

[@yesorno8865]

Than ok you I just did it

[@TheMadDadReview]

You Go!

[@athena3486]

Am I the only one who learned NOTHING 😭😭 send help

[@TheMadDadReview]

That hurts my feelings just a little bit 😜

[@pdamianwolf2189]

I cut the zip ties......

[@TheMadDadReview]

You’ll be alright - just squeeze it together to put it in place with pressure

[@Prophecy1453]

This product sucks tbh. Returned mine.

[@TheMadDadReview]

I used mine for a year and it worked just like other gates like this.
