The way to install the gate for your dog is dependent on the type of gate. Folding or hinged and freestanding types are the ones that do not need any type of installation. They are also easy to set up and all you need to do is to set the fixture standing and you are good to go. On the other hand, if you have the pressure-adjusted type, you will need to prop one endpoint of the gate to the wall and adjust the other endpoint.
This way, the opposing end can apply pressure against the contradicting surface. Continue to adjust the tension until the whole gate is totally secured and does not budge when it is being shaken. For those who have a wall-mounted type of gate, you will have to drill holes into the wall. The holes must conform to the number of screws included in the wall mount. Various manufacturers have their own unique way on how to install the product. It is important that you read the instructions first on how to install the fixture before you do the installation.
