Position and fix the gate in place
Place the gate in between the two arbor posts and sit on packers so the gate is about 50mm (2") off the ground. (Adjust accordingly if required, to allow for the contour of the ground and to ensure that the gate will be able to swing all the way open.)
Place wedges or packers at the sides of the gate so that the gaps between the gate and posts are even, and the gate is 'jammed' in place.
The gate should remain in position by itself while the "T" hinges are screwed in place. Place a hinge on each rail (3 in all).
Once the hinges are screwed in place, take out the wedges and/or packing and fit the gate latch.
