BabyDan Silkeborg Deluxe Baby Gate - Adjustable Wood Safety Stair Gate with One-Hand Operation, 62.5-100.5cm - Wall-Mounted Child Security Gate with Quick-Release & Reversible Opening

I had an awkward wall/bannister at the bottom of my stairs- with the wall stopping 4 inches shorter to the left of the staircase. This worked a treat albeit not installed 100% as suggested but as it was for the bottom stairs this wasn’t such a huge issue.

The media could not be loaded. Installed one at the top of our stairs onto wall on one side and wooden bannister on the other. Instructions weren't that easy to understand but once we worked it out was pretty simple. Also the screws supplied were quite short, we replaced with longer versions with roll plugs for the walls.Bought a second one for the bottom of stairs again between wall and wooden bannister, but this time it has to sit at an awkward angle. Both have worked out well though and we are delighted.

The stair gate is OK, not outstanding but it does its job - it is however, an absolute nightmare to install!Two of the photos below show the "hinge" side, the other two show the "Lock side".The installation "instructions" consist of six A3 pages of drawings; I can understand that it is cheaper and easier to make instructions international and not dependent on text. However, even with drawings, the assembly and installation is far from clear.The individual components are identified along with letters and quantity on the first (A3) page but the individual plastic parts don't have any lettering - although some of them unhelpfully have some sort of manufacturer's part number. One of the plastic parts was badly moulded and I had to use a Stanley knife and a file to get it to fit.There is a YouTube installation video which is very much better than the "drawings".The Cuggl Extra Wide Safety Gate is just as good, cheaper, very easy to install and most importantly the instructions are actually useful.

Bought one for the downstairs to stop our new puppy going upstairs. Bought a 2nd for the loft. Love the fact that you don't have to step through it like most gates.

Product looks sturdy and good quality. Unfortunately it is so complicated to put together and the instructions are just unlabelled pictures. I've been at it for hours and still can't get things to line up properly in order to get it to fit together. I've put together loads of baby gates and flatpack furniture in the past so I know it's not entirely a me problem.Today I was gonna spend an hour or so putting the baby gate together then revising for my exam. 4 hours later I've done no revision and I'm dehydrated from stress crying. Do not recommend

The media could not be loaded. Little complicated and complex to put together and Install should you not be hands on experienced or not installing things like this often, however it was simple for me and I decided to opt in for my own wall plugs oppose to the provided. Only because I have a whole box spare.Once Installed the stair gate can hold my whole body weight. I can swing on the gate side to side without any stress on the hinges. Please do not do this though!! I am only 70kg.I am truly happy with this product and have 0 concerns. I can confirm comfortably this is a safe stair gate that is strong and durable providing the installer has installed accordingly and adequately.I do recommend this gets a thumbs up from me 👍

No words an vague pictures for instructions. You don't get wall fixings ie plugs and long screws so can only be screwed into door frames so be prepared to have to get wall plugs and screws . Although I do like the look of it it doesn't feel as sturdy as you would expect for the price

The assembly isn't difficult, except perhaps the final step of setting the width. However, it does require concentration and the instructions have a few mistakes.Top tips:Split it into stages: familiarise with manual and count the pieces. Install the hinges using the drilling guide. Finally add the gates.The manual splits into two sections, fit between or fit against walls/door. You just need to follow one section.Make sure the dilled holes in The gate panels are on the bottom side.The instructions note the drill guides wrongly in the zoomed in pictures. The full size pic has A/B the right way.Have two people for the last step, where you install the gate panels one to install and one to get the stuff you keep dropping down the stairs. I'm not joking! Every time you drop an item you have to start again with the gate because you cant open it without it falling apart untill the last steps.The 1.5 cm gap is a minimum, you might end up with a big gap. You make the gap bigger and smaller mostly with where the hinges attach to the gates. The flexibility in the cross over section is minimal
