Installation overview
Start by confirming the opening, the side space for the gate to slide into, grade, drainage and utilities, then set the support and guide posts on a suitable foundation. Build the frame square with the corner brackets. Lay the track straight and level, fit the wheels and upper roller, and position the stopper and catcher. Finish by tightening hardware, checking clearances, cleaning the track and running the gate through its full travel.
Posts and automation
Posts come in 3, 4 and 6 in. sizes; pick one to suit the gate's weight and your ground. No motor is included, but the layout accepts a compatible operator. Work out wiring, safety sensors and a manual release with your installer.
How much side room does it need?
Leave a clear run beside the opening equal to the gate's width, with extra space at the ends for the catcher and stopper hardware.
Is corrosion a concern?
Aluminum does not form red rust like steel, and the woodgrain powder coat shields the surface.
