This is depicted in these two drawings.INTREPID 950mm MaximumRise 356 mmPlease allow as much room as possible so that thegate can swing fully open. However if space istight, then try to provide at least a 100mm –150mm corner so that the gate can swing open asmuch as 75 – 90 .

Typical dims shown below.Position one 13mm hole for mounting the block with theM12 x 100mm carriage bolt.Position two 13mm holes on 159mm centers for two M12carriage bolts (100mm top and 125mm bottom). Holesshould be positioned to allow clearance for tighteningnuts.Block should not interfere with the opening or closing of thegate. It is intended to provide vertical support in anemergency. The block should be located at least 125mmbelow where the top of the hinge is positioned.REMEMBER –– YOU MUST MAKE SURE:¾ Safety Gate is no more than1100mm above the platformsurface to avoid too large of anopening below the gate¾ Double bar gate is longenough to contact, andextend past, opposite sideguardrail post by 25mm min.¾ The block is provided to resist verticaldeflection.

The square tube kit canattach to square tube 38mm, 50mm or 60mm. Both are great alternatives to weldingplate. Instructions below are for the pipe kit.INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONSSUPPORT BLOCK INSTALLATIONHINGE INSTALLATIONPosition top of the metal hinge angle plate 25mmbelow top of the guardrailAttach plate by putting the two carriage bolts throughthe plate and tighten nuts.Install assembly onto guardrail using 2 No M8 roundor square U bolts. Loosely install M8 nuts. Once incorrect position tighten all nuts.Install the block and plate assembly onto the oppositeguardrail post, using round or square M8 U bolt. Bolt thesupport block to the plate using one M12 x 100 bolt (supplied).Loosely install two M8 nuts to the U bolts. Once the block ispositioned approximately 25mm below the bar of the gate,tighten the nuts.NOTE: The bar of the gate should not rest on the block.Likewise, the block should not interfere with the openingor closing of the gate. It is intended to provide verticalsupport in an emergency.HoldTight Magnet Closure KitThe add-on HoldTight Magnet Closure Kit provides a way to hold the Safety Gate securely in a closedposition. All parts of the kit have been designed and tested for outdoor use and exposure. In fact, it hassuccessfully held the Intrepid Safety Gate closed on an offshore rig along the Canadian-Atlanticcoastline where the winds are around 30 knots with gusts of 70-80 knots!INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONSDetermine where the Safety Gate contacts the vertical guardrailpost. Mark and drill a 6mm hole through the top bar of SafetyGate. Since the bar has both recessed and solid areas along itslength, use the shorter machine screw for the recessed areas andthe longer machine screw for the solid sections.Two nuts are used to secure the magnetic disk. In this way, themagnet can “float” or “wobble”, and still make good, flat contactwith the metal guardrail post.Once the screw, nuts, and magnet are together, use the washer,(plus additional nuts, if required) and the cap nut to secure theunit to the gate.
