• Wall Mounting Hardware (Wall fixed heads, screws, expansion pipes)
• Floor Stickers (for additional stability)

3.2 Assembly Steps:

1. Determine Configuration: Unfold the gate and arrange the panels to fit your desired opening. The panels are detachable and can be adjusted to various angles.
2. Adjust Panel Angles: Loosen the angle lock knobs on the panel joints, adjust the panels to the correct angle for your opening, and then tighten the knobs securely. Do not force-adjust panels once knobs are tightened.
