Installation advice
Position the bottom pivot on the floor, centred beneath the leaf, pre-drilling the floor according to the template holes. Then fix the top pivot to the lintel or upper cross member of the frame, in perfect vertical alignment with the bottom pivot. Fit the leaf onto both pivots and check for free movement in both directions. A vertical misalignment creates resistance when opening: check with a spirit level. Refer to the assembly document provided in the kit for precise drilling dimensions.
Maintenance and protection
Lubricate the pivots with a few drops of light oil once or twice a year to maintain smooth movement. In the event of squeaking, cleaning followed by lubrication is generally sufficient. Check the tightness of the fixing screws annually, particularly on wooden floors which may move slightly with the seasons.
