Overview: Installation and Specifications for Retract-A-Gate
Easy to Install and Use (see Users Guides for full details):

Repeat for the other side of the opening while ensuring the horizontal distances between both upper and lower brackets is identical, to maintain squareness.

4. To close the opening, simply connect the gate to the opposite brackets
5. The gate can be safely locked in place by pushing and turning the childproof locking feature
