How to Install an Evenflo Gate
- 1). Measure the opening where you want to place the Evenflo gate. An Evenflo pressure-mounted gate will work for an opening between 26 and 42 inches wide.
- 2). Pull the cross bar up on the Evenflo gate so that the small metal sizing bar is movable.
- 3). Place the metal sizing bar into the slot that matches the measurement of your opening. If your opening is not a full inch, round up to the next full inch and place the sizing bar in this slot.
- 4). Set the Evenflo gate in the opening with the cross bar facing away from where your child will be. Make sure the pressure points are above your baseboards.
- 5). Press down on the crossbar until the metal U-shaped clamp catches the bar.
- 6). Test the gate by gently pushing and pulling on it to insure it stays in place.
