As a standard, Orbinox CC Channel Gates are mounted Embedded In Concrete (EC). Field adjust-
ment hex bolts are required to center the gate in the appropriate recess prior to embedding in con-
crete. For detailed information about the type, size and quantity of the required bolts, or any other
specific installation notes or materials, please refer to the notes on the “General Arrangement Draw-
ing”.

•
The concrete construction shall be flat, level and plumb, and shall be in accordance to ACI 117-
06 standard. If necessary, use non-shrink grout in order to meet the specified standard. The
minimum concrete strength shall be 3,000 PSI ( 0.7 MPa).

•
Position and center the channel gate in the recess of the wall, using the field adjustment bolts
screwed in the “Side Centering Fittings” and “Bottom Leveling Brackets” (see Figure 1). Make
sure that the channel gate is centered in the channel.
NOTE: the smaller CC Channel Gates do not come with “Bottom Leveling Brackets”. If this is the
case, follow Step B (page 6) prior to starting with “Step ” in order to be able to align the gate
vertically.
•
Align the gate vertically adjusting the bolts on the “Bottom Leveling Brackets” (see Figure ).
Make sure that the frame invert is flush with the invert of the channel.
•
Align the gate horizontally adjusting the bolts on the “Lateral Centering Fittings” (see Figure 3).
Make sure that the Frame Guide is flush with the channel side wall. Additionally, make sure that
the gate is perpendicular to the side walls of the channel.
