Secure Mounting Brackets (Side 2)

What happens in this clip

Align the top and bottom mounting brackets on the second side with their respective pilot holes. Securely attach both brackets to the wall using the corded drill and the provided screws. These brackets are designed to allow the gate to 'click' or slide into place, so ensure they are oriented correctly for easy attachment and removal of the gate. Similar to the first side, tighten screws firmly but avoid over-tightening the plastic.

Goal: Securely attach the remaining mounting brackets to the wall.

About the full video

This project provides verbose step-by-step instructions for installing a Regalo Extra Tall Top of Stair Metal Walk-Through Safety Gate (Model #1255 B DS, Black) at the top of a staircase. The process includes assembling the gate, preparing and securing the mounting hardware to the wall, adjusting the gate's width and fit, and performing final checks for smooth and secure operation.

Step 4 of 6: Attach Mounting Brackets

Align each mounting bracket with the pilot holes drilled in the previous step. Insert the screws provided with the baby gate through the bracket holes and into the pilot holes. Use a screwdriver or drill with a screwdriver bit to tighten the screws until the brackets are firmly secured to the surface. Ensure there is no play or movement in the brackets.
