i plan on using the wall bracket - to a board above a gate/fence - how wide is the bracket, ie how wide/high a piece of wood do i need to mount it?

We mounted it to a free standing portable basketball stand, but there were several brackets for universal mounting. I think the widest point we had was 20"

i just measured mine. from top to bottom of brackets, it is 32". the actual gate is 29" tall. so it doesn't sound like this gate is going to be a good fit for you.

Sorry, I can not help you with that. I really like the gate but I did not have to attach on angle. My suggestion would be try attaching a 2 x 4 piece of wood to the wall and then drill the gate into the wood. It is only a suggestion, I can't be sure if that will solve your problem.

Hello, and thank you for contacting CRI 2000! I will be happy to assist you! The Bracket itself is 36" high, and it should be mounted at least 53" off the ground.

Should be ok. I've installed 8 ft tall 4x4 fence posts on top of railroad ties (actually bridge timber) using these. But it really depends on what you're building. If this is a fence where you'll have lateral support with 2x4 or other material, then you're ok.

Mine is mounted to a 4 X 4 inch post on our deck, the unit is mounted to the house. So, I don't any reason it cannot be attached to a post unless you have something unusual. It needs to be strong enough and the bracket should be bolted or lagged (a bolt type) to that post.

The gate comes with the hardware to mount it on the wall. That being said, unless your house has studs that perfectly match up on both walls your will probably need to get some heavy duty drywall anchors. I also decided to get slightly longer and stronger screws than the ones provided...but that's just because I am paranoid about safety.If you want to install it on a banister without screwing into the banister I believe they sell and additional kit for that.

Mind you, I will present an educated guess. The mechanisms that hold the gate in place are threaded bolts with a cap on the outer end. These fit into mounts that are fixed to the wall either with screws or adhesive disks. That's LOTS of play in bolts. My guess is that so long as you don't exceed the maximum span or less than the minimum span, then this could be done. If you provide me with your width dimensions, I will provide a more concrete response.

if it's a wood bannister you can drill right into it...only 4 screws per side....if metal railing...we strap a piece of wood to it and then mount gate into wood

The bracket by itself sticks our about 1 1/4." With a 3/4" thick shelf, it takes up about 2" of width from the wall.

The mounting brackets come with sticky tape or screws. I Screwed mine into the wall. I never had any issues with the gate, seemed very strong if installed correctly.

There really is no way to recommend what hardware to use without seeing where it will be installed. The best person to determine that would be the professional who installs it. The holes in the bracket are approximately 7/16".

Yes, go into a retailer to get the size needed if the suggestions are not enough, then you can decide to purchase online, at a retailer or bulk club. When I look at the back looks like a standard 4 hole bracket. I decided I did not want to place on the wall at this time. There are instructions in the manual to hook it up. Hope it helps!

4 inches high 5 inches width and it fits on the wall like a standard wall plate. When you mount it, be sure you are in between studs so the work boxes fit behind the drywall. Use a stud finder that shows where wiring runs so you won't cut where they are. I didn't make sure and cut a hole I didn't need

I installed mine on my back deck which has a four foot wooden rail. I screwed it into the upright wooden posts. The only issue I could see is you would need to drill and use bolts instead of screws if you are attaching to metal posts.

I have mine mounted on a wooden picket fence and it is fine. Excellent quality.

The mounting bracket is 4" tall and 2" wide, flat, and mounts with two wood screws. I have mine on a 4x4 post, centered, and it is solid. If you mount on metal I'd suggest drilling through-holes and bolting the bracket on with #12 or #10 screws and appropriate nuts and washers.
