Greg, I made up a couple of pieces of aluminium (carpet edge?) that worked
well for a couple of seasons, but now allows slides to come out under
pressure and not go back in without unscrewing the whole thing.  I'm going
to either add stiffening to stop the center bowing out, or tap another
fastener in the middle of each (or potentially go with a Tides track
system).  Just make sure that a) the slides will go down over the gate top
and b) it's stiff enough to hold them in place during flaking by an
enthusiastic crew...
