Slam Lock Operation
The slam lock engages when the gate is pushed closed. Once locked, a key is required to open the gate from either side. Keep keys readily accessible and consider safe exit arrangements when planning the installation.
Coastal Use and Care
The aluminium frame offers rust resistance for coastal and high-humidity environments. Periodic cleaning helps remove salt deposits and keep the track and rollers operating smoothly. Follow the manufacturer's care instructions.
DIY Installation
The gate is designed for DIY installation and supplied with fasteners and instructions. Check the installation guide for the required tools, mounting surfaces and clearances. Suitability depends on the opening and supporting structure; seek installation advice if unsure. The low-profile bottom track reduces the obstruction at floor level but should still be considered when planning access.
