Zippity Vinyl Picket Gate
GENERAL INFORMATION
1 - Read Over Fence Instructions First
Your gate and fence will work better together as an integrated
fence instructions.
2 - Pre-Assemble the Gate Frame
(without pickets)
This will ensure three things:
a) That you have everything necessary to complete the gate.
b) That you will have assembled the gate frame in the correct order.
It’s easier to trouble shoot when things are not screwed together.
After you assemble your gate correctly, please disassemble as
necessary and use screws to permanently assemble the gate.
3 - Ideally, Install Your Gate Posts Before Your Fence Posts
Your fence panels will be more forgiving for a custom t than your gate. Ideally, position and install your
gate posts before you do anything else, or very early on in the process of setting up your fence run.
4 - Ideally, Do Not Hang Your Gate System Off A Single,
Non-Supported Post
Your gate will perform better and last longer if your hinge post is connected to a panel of fence which is
connected to another post. The weight strain will be transferred unto two posts versus just one. Installing
fence panels on both sides of your gate is the ideal in all situations. If this is not possible because of space
restrictions, please contact us for alternative solutions to overcome. 
