I have a large cat run down the side of my home 

the gate was installed at the same time 

it seems to plastic connectors in each corner of the gate are spitting and one has already broken

does anyone know where I look to purchase these and if they are easy to replace ?

Re: fix an outdoor cat gate

Hello @Allibe70 

 

This appears to be a Metal Mate 2 Way Connect-It Corner Joiner. I suggest removing the broken plastic corner by slowly tapping it out with a hammer use a multigrip tool to pull it out. Bring the broken plastic with you to the store and compare it to the new Metal Mate corner joiner. If the size is the same, my best advice is to carefully re-install the plastic corner and not use too much force. 

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
