Measurements and Preparations
Before installing a gate, it starts with measurements and prep work. Use a measuring tool to measure the opening width and height of the Steel Picket Fence to ensure the chosen gate size will fit.

Install gates and adjust
To begin installing a gate, start by placing the gate over the Steel Picket Fence opening, using supports such as planks to hold it at the proper height and position. Then, attach the gate's hinges or slides to the Steel Picket Fence using screws and nuts. Make sure the connection is tight and secure. After installation, test the gate for opening and closing and make adjustments as needed. Depending on the gate design and how it was installed, it may be necessary to adjust the position of the hinges or slide rails to ensure the gate opens and closes smoothly without rubbing against the Steel Picket Fence.

Finally, perform a general inspection of the installed gate to ensure it is sound and functioning properly.
