This video is a step by step guide to installing the hinges on all Gibraltar plexi shield products, GDS-3, GDS-5, GAS-2X4, GAS-3X2. For best results, follow each step exactly as it is presented.
When I try putting on mines, its literally takes like a five-man squad to get all of this done and I dont know why. We've watched youtube videos on how to put it up but we also tried puttting it on the same way it was showed from this video. I have the same Gibraltar brand drum shield and it still gives me thee hardest time to put up. I dont know if there is like a special lubricant that I personally have to by to get it to stick on or something but at this point i dont know, im about to just give up and have to drill holes to get hinges on the plexiglass. HELP ME GIBRALTAR !!!!
Thanks for the comment! Sorry to hear you are having a hard time putting this together. The instructions in this video show the easiest way to put it together. The hinges may be a little difficult at times to fit over the plexi, and the reason for that is if they were looser, they wouldn’t stay on the shield when folding and unfolding.
