Very good stair gate. It is sturdy and safe. The design is well thought out, it is tall enough for the hinges of the door and is very easy to open and close with one hand.
Instal is a little fiddly and can take some time to get spot on, but when put on, it is sturdy and feel safe that it will do the job.
I think a lot of people return these thinking they are bent out of the box – they are meant to be to ensure a tight fit! When you install them and screw them tight, the bent post then goes straight which is explained in the instructions, but perhaps not in the clearest way.
Works fine as a stairgate but if it is even slightly out of level (which can be a bit tricky to get perfect) the gate will swing open/closed if unlocked. A bit more resistance on the gate hinge would be nice so it was less likely to swing about if not level but its a very minor issue especially as its sold as a basic stair gate.
Bought this to keep dogs from leaving our kitchen when wet. Fitted perfectly and easily. Not too awkward to open, unlike some. Been using it for a year and it still works perfectly.
Very impressed with build quality and fixings. Have used similar gates previously to restrict our dog from going into our kitchen when we need to temporarily keep her out! This is by far the best quality and secure “baby gate” we have bought to date.
HAS to be fitted between two walls or a door fame.
Mine was to be fitted between stair newel post and a wall.
Due to it being a pressure fit gate it ended up moving the newel post instead!
Could not get it to a closed position so it was unusable for me.
This safety gate is ideal on the flat, but not at the top of stairs because the bottom rail is a trip hazard.
The lock release is fine if you have a strong grip but impossible for my wife to work as she has a weak grip.
I thought overall it was a good gate but found the unlocking a little difficult. Make sure you tighten it up really well though as it will just push open otherwise
I bought it for top of flight of stairs and I think it will take quite some time to get used to not catching the bottom bar with one’s toe. Decision will have to be made on safety grounds and I might need to consider the roller blind version as doesn’t have a bottom bar. Very important. Thanks. DJ
I bought this stair gate a fews days ago and arrived relatively fast. The only reason it doesn’t have 5 stars is because the product arrived partially damaged, but still fully functional. Mostly easy to install, works well for what it needs. The lock feature requires more attention to operate than other stair gates as you have to have it unlocked to close the door, to then have it closed safely. The gate also doesn’t close and stays open which I find handy for when baby is in bed, but that means you have to give it your full attention to close, rather than quickly shut close.
It a baby gate the look is quite simple, the extension are easy to install onto it.
There is a double lock bit so you have to slide the top while holding the under part. I like the safety of having this as my toddlers are getting good at probleming solving this helps to know that can’t work it out, where as other ones they have worked out how to open them.
I can tell the gate takes a lot of bangs from toddler toys and it still stands.
Also when locked it will show green when not locked it will remain red.
If you want something that going to last I would say get this.
We got this for our dog easy to assemble and easy to open and close no marks in door frame very strong as we have a staffy and he could not knock it over great value for money
We have brought so many gates, that my grandson who has autism and is very clever can open. This gate he can’t open! Hallelujah.. so have replaced four rooms with this same gate! ..
I love this baby gate! My little one she’s the explorer and with this gate we made sure she stays out of danger. Easy to install, great locking system, fits different sizes of stairs, doors, etc I can’t recommend it enough! Will purchase another one as well as I like the quality and price of the produc
Lightweight and well finished item. Very easy to install and use. Had it fitted in no time at all. Instructions are very clear and explain safety features very well. Highly recommend this item.
The instructions with this gate are dreadful and I was despairing of ever getting it installed till I found much clearer instructions inline. Using these the installation is relatively easy and the gate is overall very good though the lock-release mechanism is a bit fiddly.
Just what we needed, fits perfect with the extension. Sticky tabs feel secure. Now we don’t have to worry so much when baby crawls in hallway. Easily adjustable to width needed, can be fitted by 1 person but easy when there’s 2 of you fitting it. Secure opening n closing.
I must say after using for long this is Amazing gate till now
Double lock is perfect for ppl like me who always think child is going to open gate
When my son did open rest of things
I use to stop my dog going in bedroom, cat is allowed in hence the gate she can get over.. I found the fittings fiddly to put in, so not actually using that bit until I can get someone to sort..
Disappointed as stated stairs and not at all, not wide enough, and doorways a bit of a stretch.
Lil bit expensive but material worth it. It’s very good and easy assemble. Works properly
This is just right for our puppy, it stops her getting in the kitchen and making a nuisance of herself while we are cooking.
We have some other stair gates that were more expensive and they are easier to open due to having a simpler mechanism, but this one is good for the price.
Having used the Flat Step model for years, gave this a try as it was a bit cheaper. Wish I had put up the extra cash for the Flat Step, as the lock on this is fiddlier and noisier. I also tripped over this initially, whilst getting used to it. Overall this is still a decent gate, with easy and secure installation, but Flat Step is on another level, especially if you need to go through it often.
It opens both ways and can be set for just either one; so quite versatile.
It look a bit of time to get it fitted securely with Wall Nanny extenders instead of the provided cups fixed (self adhesive pads or plug & screw). Our walls aren’t parallel so this added o the interest and I rested it on a couple of bottle corks to keep it above the carpet.
Once installed and set up, there is some ‘spring’ to be taken up, it worked faultlessly.
The lock is todler proof and also proof against some adults!
Next time it set up it wont take quite as long as the experimentation has been done.
All in all a good buy, but wouldn’t use without the Wall Nanny feet.
We use the stairgate for a visiting springer spaniel, so it’s gone up and down several times. We also took it away with us to a family air bnb. It’s been easy to put in place and dismantle every time. There’s a very helpful youtube video in the first instance. You do need to check the dimensions they give. There are discs supplied that you can stick to the wall; they act as a sort of socket for the frame. I haven’t found it necessary to use them; the pressure of the gate against the wall and stair post has provided a very solid framework.
As Chester has grown and is now house trained, he is allowed from the back yard through the kitchen to the lounge. I therefore decided to purchase a second gate which again fitted the second doorway leading from the kitchen to the rest of the house.
The gates can be opened by pushing in a button at the top and then squeezing the handle at the same time, this can be done easily with one hand. Make sure that when fitting the gate that the green line is correctly aligned or the gate may not open/close correctly.
It is possible to swing the gate closed, however there is a strong spring which you can hear when swung shut. It seems to be a secure gate when fitted correctly and I had no problems in setting the gate up after reading the instructions supplied.
The gate also has the option to open towards or away from you, by selecting the correct settings on the grey toggle on the bottom rung of the gate, or allow the gate to swing both ways.
The only issues I had was that I initially tripped over the lowest bar of the original gate, but soon got used to picking up my feet and that at night it is not quiet when locking the gate as the spring in the lock is strong. This initially disturbed my dog who sleeps in a room adjoining the gate, but has got used to the sound now and therefore might disturb a baby.
