The 15mm base welds to a steel plate, frame or embedded fixing, the 20mm cap welds to the underside of the gate, and the gate turns on the bearing between them. Because it has no bracket, you decide exactly where the pivot goes.

Refit the bearing and the cap, stand the gate on the cap and prop it upright, then fit the top hinge.
