We’ve had three of these now for dogs and a grandchild. They take quite a lot of flack and have continued to work well. We live in a very old house and no door frame is standard buy they have all fitted. More than happy with them- my only complaint is the old style ones didn’t have all the holes in them but all in all they do the job very well
Bought to keep German Shepard from accessing front door
Been installed for years and still as good as new
Looks great and although I have small dogs, I went for a higher gate as the height is right to open/close easily. I had a neighbour fit it for me as I’m not great on the DIY, bit fiddly but worth it as it’s completely secure, there is no floor lip to trip on and you can fit it close to the floor so even a chihuahua can’t get under it. Really pleased. My only gripe is that hinges are plastic not metal but they all seem to be like that now, which is a shame.
We now have a baby and with it being so high it’s very easy to open and close whilst carrying a baby in your arms. Assembly was quick and easy, done by eye and a spirit level rather than using any guides as previous reviews said they were inaccurate.
We found that because they’re so high the door handle hits the top of the gate which is very noisy and means we can’t shut the doors. Fine for us as they’re never closed anyway but just something to consider if you’re using this gate on a doorway.
I also left out the tiny bit of plastic that stops the gate being opened in both directions, everything still works exactly as it should – it just gives you a bit more flexibility.
I have BabyDan gates all over my house as I hate pressure fitted gates, especially on my stairs as they are just tripping hazards and I don’t trust them to stay in place. BabyDan hates are just perfect in my eyes, very easy to install and honestly can’t think of anything bad to say about them.
Although designed for a large dog, we used this when my mother with Alzheimer’s and dementia started her midnight wandering- she couldn’t work out how to open this gate (really easy just a catch and lift) it meant we didn’t panic about her turning the gas on in the kitchen – also Missy our dog was contained! So win win all round!
I love the babydan gates as they are easy to open and easy to assemble with the cutout paper. Bought this for a puppy we hopefully can take home soon. Got the normal size for bedroom and the tall one for downstairs as I intend to keep that installed way into the adulthood of the dog. It is tall enough for it not to jump over when full size.
Great quality gate , the only thing that let it down was the tiny little screws it comes with , so came off the wall when I opened it after a couple of days , we just used our own bigger screws and wall plugs now it’s great.
Would buy again and just use our own bigger screws from the start .
We needed a really tall gate to stop our escapologist toddler from wandering at night. This is very tall and does the job.
It IS slightly hard to fit, but it was worth it for the height.
Well, after our Bullmastiff crept downstairs, opened our old stair gate and got the Christmas turkey we decided it’s time for a new stair gate!
The good thing about this gate is the adjustable width as our doorways are 85cm wide. The template provided allows for easy fixing into the door frame and took no time at all to install.
We’ve had the gate installed a few days now and she has not been able to escape the kitchen when left alone and she’s not been able to get in the kitchen when food is left on the sides!!
Proper job!!
My partner said it was easy to install so that’s good! Toddler has zero chance of getting by this thing, it is really tall so I’m very pleased as it’s for above the stairs. It’s really easy to open and close as well, much prefer this to other gates that have the frame you trip over. Just wish it came in wood so it was a bit prettier but that’s just a small thing.
Got this gate to stop my dogs from getting to the front door and getting out if the front door was opened. It does the job perfectly. They can’t get through or over it but can still see what’s going on (I have two very nosy dogs!)! My son in law assembled and fitted the gate for me as I am disabled and it seemed to be pretty easy ~ there wasn’t any swearing anyway!! Good buy, very happy with it.
Really good gate! Strong and sturdy. Fits narrow or wide doorways. I would recommend 2 people do the last bit of u may have a temper tantrum like myself but my diy skills are basic to none so a competent adult should hv no trouble …..I received fantastic customer service from the manufacturer! (John from babydan) I like an idiot had wrecked one of the pieces and they sent me out a replacement. I can’t compliment them enough.
This is a great sturdy stairgate. I’m using it for my 5 year olds bedroom. He has learning difficulties and for his own safety he needs a stair gate but could climb over a standard size.
I did find screwing the fixings on to the gate when you have got it to the right size a bit frustrating. But the gate makes up for it. The fixings are easy to screw to a door frame. They include a template if needed.
It’s worth getting the frame fixings in the right place as a few millimetres out and the gate will be stiff.
The other benefit of this gate is you can have it any height off the floor to make it taller. It’s lovely not having to step over a gate frame when you go through it.
The gate removes from its fixings easily if you need to vary anything through the doorway and the gate is in the way.
I was thrilled with this gate and still am gate works much better than pressure sadly my Shepard x lab still can jump it took him week before he did it though so defeats purpose but that our dog his a nightmare !
Arrived on time, second time we have bought this gate and this is replacing the other as four years of St. Bernard slobber has taken its toll. Perfect for keeping wet dogs out and babies i
great gate, just make sure you install the hinges first, then hang it, and then mark up the catches. that way you won’t have to do it twice and it will fit well. installed 5 of these already, so have learnt for lessons.
Finally something my dog can’t jump over. The big benefit of this gate is that there’s no bar across the floor to trip over, this also means you can lift the gate slighly higher, as long as you make sure your dog can’t squeeze underneath of course. Abosultely worth the money and easy to fit. Very sturdy as well.
Excellent safety gate which I use to keep my large dog in (or out of) the kitchen! She could jump over the usual safety gates but this one has proved to be too tall for even her to attempt to jump. Very sturdy and easy to fit, highly recommended
Box and its cocontents absoloutley stunk of cigarette smoke tho which im not too happy about hopefully cleaning it will take the smell of the plastic components
Have added size comparison photo between it and another baby gate atleast 10 inches highe
I got this stair ate as my little one was starting to climb over the normal ones. This is great really tall and no worry of her climbing over. Would definitely recommend. Easy to fix onto the door frames and easy to use.
Be careful not to throw away the paper template for fixing the gates to the wall as they are essential for getting a correct fitting and you will need them again if you move the gate.
Does the job we really needed it to! Thin enough gaps to stop them being able to get through and tall enough to stop them getting over.. We had to put it closer to the ground though as the cats could fit underneath at first!
This gate confines our greyhounds in the breakfast room when we have visitors. They can see and hear what is going on and we can keep an eye on them. I also like the fact that when the gate is open there is no bar along the bottom to trip over.
The first gate I received had a piece missing and two of something that there should only be one of – amazon replaced it without question but it did mean I had to wait an extra two days before I could install the gate! But it’s a well build gate that pretty easy to put together (although the instructions aren’t that easy to follow – too small and not clear enough) and easy to fit. I would recommend this.
Bought to keep our Westie out of the hall and away from the letterbox! And it works a treat. Well constructed & sturdy and with the expandable/retractable fittings it was easy to fit into the space available, i.e. the wall at the top of the gate and a large old fashioned skirting board at the bottom. Ideal and a great buy – well pleased.
This item arrived quickly was easy enough to assemble, and does what I wanted. It will be ideal for most pet owners and for children. however my Lab/cross can jump it when he wants to, which is a bit of a let down but then I just have awkward animals. I am still very pleased with the gate and the opening & closing device is fine.
I have had one of these for years, but needed an extra one to help puppy proof my house. Easy to put together, but a small spring that used to be part of the opening mechanism has been discontinued. I think this is a mistake on the makers part. But time will tell
