All American Flat Top Picket Gate

• Read your All-American Flat Top Picket Fence (ZP19084) install guide first — your gate and fence work better together when you understand how the fence goes in.
• Dry-fit the gate frame before you drive a single screw. A dry run confirms every piece is in the box, that you have the assembly order right, that everything fits and functions, and that your gate matches the measurements shown in the specifications below. Troubleshooting is far easier before anything is screwed together — take the frame back apart as needed, then reassemble it permanently with the 1¼" self-drilling stainless steel screws.
• Position and install your gate posts before your fence posts. Fence panels are more forgiving of a custom fit than a gate is.
• Call 811 before you dig to check for underground utilities — this gate needs two finishing posts set into the ground.

Gates do not come with their own posts

You will need two Finishing Posts — one to finish the fence run, and one to support the gate.

Do not hang your gate off a single unsupported post. Your gate will perform better and last longer if the hinge post is connected to a panel of fence that is connected to another post — that way the weight strain is carried by two posts instead of one. Installing fence panels on both sides of your gate is ideal in all situations. If space restrictions make this impossible, contact us for alternative solutions.

Parts Required

A x2 B x1

Push both Bottom Brackets (A) onto Bottom Rail (B) until it meets the back of your brackets as shown.

Note: Bottom rail only has holes on one side.

Parts Required

E x2

Insert Vertical Stiles (E) into the bottom brackets — they will bottom out against the bottom rail.

Parts Required

C x2 D x1

Push both Top Brackets (C) onto Top Rail (D) until it meets the back of your brackets as shown.

Insert Vertical Stiles (E) into the top brackets. Press your top rail down to ensure a tight fit.

Parts Required

G x20

Fasten the gate brackets to the frame with 20 of the 1¼" White Self-Drilling Stainless Steel Screws (G).

Note: Do not install the outward-facing screws on one side — that side needs to stay clear for hinge installation.

Parts Required

F x7

Install Pickets (F) through your top rail down to the bottom rail.

Note: The bottoms of the pickets have tabs to prevent removal. Light force may be required to push the tabs into the bottom rail.

Parts Required

I x2 H x8

Fasten the Hinges (I) onto the gate brackets with 8 of the 1¼" Black Self-Drilling Stainless Steel Screws (H).

Parts Required

H x8

Temporarily place wooden blocks or spacers to level your gate for installation. Fasten hinges to the post with 8 of the 1¼" Black Self-Drilling Stainless Steel Screws (H).

Parts Required

H x16

Open the gate and fasten the hinges to the post from the inside with 16 of the 1¼" Black Self-Drilling Stainless Steel Screws (H).

Note: If your internal pipe anchor ends up close to the inside corner of the post, you must angle your screws to avoid the pipe anchor. If the pipe anchor can't be avoided, pre-drill holes in the pipe anchor and install the gate with Black 1¼" Hex Head Screws (L). Do not attempt to drive the pan head screws into the pipe anchor.

Parts Required

J x1 K x1 H x6

Align and fasten the Latch Catch (K) to fit and function with the Latch Finger (J) using the 6 remaining 1¼" Black Self-Drilling Stainless Steel Screws (H).
