The tabs flex inwards to enable them to fit and then snap into their designated slots within the skimmer unit. But first, here are steps you have to follow to install the weir flap/gate properly: 1.You need to first turn off both the pool’s filter and pump. 2.If the old weir gate is still in place, you’ll need to open the skimmer lid and access the old weir gate from there. 3.The locking pins are at the bottom of the weir gate. Feel around for the tabs and press both tabs inwards simultaneously. Once free, pull the old weir gate out from the skimmer lid. 4.You’ll need to install the new weir gate from the front/poolside of the skimmer. First, insert the weir into the skimmer. To make the process easier, insert the weir gate sideways and insert one pin first. Press the tab against its slot to depress it, making it easier for you to insert the other pin. 5.Once both pins are in the right position, let go of the weir gate to release the depressed tab and enable both pins to snap in place. Review: One of my two pool skimmer doors finally failed by breaking free of the mount. And if one door failed, the other door would soon follow, so I ordered two replacements. I’ve replaced these doors several times in the past and the process is pretty straight-forward. After a quick search I ordered these new skimmer doors. They were offered at a good price (especially when ordering two) and came with good reviews. My order arrived on-time and in good condition. When trying to install these doors, however, I noticed the mounting brackets had been attached to both door backwards, preventing the door from pivoting open toward the skimmer basket. The doors simply snap on the mounting bracket, so fixing this unexpected error was easy. The new doors are installed and performing as expected. Review: As a previous reviewer commented: "...the flapper was molded in a die whose two parts were misaligned. This created flashing sticking out of the bottom of the flapper that would hang up on on the base plate and not allow it to flap freely." It is easy to fix by bowing the base plate to free the flapper from the base plate. trim that extra flashing (I forgot to take a picture before I trimmed it). Also, my flapper was facing the wrong direction. It will likely work in either direction, but I turned the flapper around when I reinstalled the base plate (after trimming the flashing) so that the INSTALLER ATTENTION lettering was facing the pool, not the skimmer basket. This is the ALL FLAT side of the flapper towards the pool, and the side with the "step" pointing towards the skimmer. I researched many pictures of other manufacturers, and I believe this to be correct (other Chinese versions have it "wrong" like this one, IMO). ## Features - EXACT REPLACEMENT PART NUMBER 08650-0022 WHITE WEIR GATE ASSEMBLY - The part number 08650-0022 is an exact replacement hinged weir gate assembly for Sta-Rite U-3 Vinyl Liner Skimmer and Automatic Surface Skimmer.

Better to unscrew the old part, no matter how difficult that might be, and install the whole assembly. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by G***A on 24 June 2025* One of my two pool skimmer doors finally failed by breaking free of the mount.
