Install the gate latch system. Begin by installing the strike plate to the gate post. Pre-drill pilot holes as needed, or use the self-tapping metal screws provided in the kit to secure the strike plate. Next, align the main latch mechanism with the strike plate on the gate frame. Pre-drill holes through the steel frame and then secure the latch using the provided self-tapping metal screws. Ensure the latch engages smoothly and securely with the strike plate. This step ensures the gate can be properly closed and secured, especially important for keeping pets contained.
