How do I mount this to my gate?
The front bolt is removed to allow for the, "U," shape to wrap around the outside of the vertical gate member. Once fitted around the tube the bolt is slid back into position and tightened. The tighter the bolt is the more secure it is and less likely there is of any slippage.
Do swivel wheels actually work?
Yes, of course they work! The swivel design allows the wheel to relocate in the proper direction, the direction you open or close the gate. In addition to directing the gates open or close the wheels provide support; they help eliminate sagging and increase the life of hinges.
