The media could not be loaded. First thing I would say is this gate is not really fit for any space over 90cm. I have fitted it to an 89cm gap in my video, but to do this I have adjusted the gate to the maximum width.It is feasible to go over this width up to 102cm, however to get that width you will have large spaces at either side from adjusting the hinges and the studs for the closing mechanisms.The gate is easy to put together and does come with fittings for timber or brick installations. If you are fitting to plasterboard you will require suitable fittings as the supplied rawl plugs are not suitable for plaster. In my case I luckily hit the stud work so longer screws sorted my fitting.The installation is easier as a two man team, one to hold the template and another to mark the screw holes. After that it’s an easy one man install.The gate is very sturdy when fitted correctly, and can be set to either open a single direction or both directions. It doesn’t rattle much when adjusted and the opening mechanism is secure, so I have no worries on the safety of the design.Appearance is a nice slim white metal gate, which is not ugly. It’s a versatile fit with varying widths and with the choice of opening.It can be opened and closed with one hand, just turn the opening mechanism the opposite direction to the way you want to open the gate. I have successfully traversed the gate with a toddler in my arms. The bonus of not having any bar at the bottom as a trip hazard is excellent.Overall it’s an excellent product for the price, I’m very satisfied with the two gates I have at the top and bottom of the stairs.

The gate is for my Granddaughter when she stays at our house. The instructions were easy to follow with a video on Amazon as well. It is well made and very sturdy. You will need plasterboard fixings if you are mounting it on a stud wall.It is very easy to remove and store when not in use. Excellent value!

I needed a stair gate to stop the puppy from exploring. As this was going to be fixed across the stairs I did not want a gate that works by pushing against the walls; the end banister might not like it! This gate is made from 2 overlapping metal frames that link together very well with four clips that screw into the frame. I was sceptical at first, but they hold together really well. The included template to position the top and bottom hinge plates was good quality and accurate, so fitting the hinge was a breeze. I had to drill two holes to position the top catch on the opposite side to the hinge and the bottom catch screwed into the wooden skirting. The adjustments on each corner made this very easy to position. Note that if you position the hinges inside a door frame then you can only open the gate to 90 degrees, so if you want to open it wider, ensure the hinges are near the edge of the frame, or as I have done in my case, on the front of the end banister.Operating the gate is easy, just lift the gate a couple of cm to lift the gate over the catches - I chose this particular gate because it features a spring-loaded swivelling blocker that prevents the gate from being lifted otherwise... I did not want the puppy from lifting it with his nose !! closing the gate is the same - lift and pop the gate back into its catches - the swivel block flips aside to allow this.Early days but the gate feels sturdy and just the job if you don't mind screwing the hinges and catches into the wall.Oh and even better, if you want to remove the gate for a short time, the gate lifts off the hinges with a small button on the top hinge.I recommend this and would not hesitate to buy again. and I am fussy !November 2023 update - We originally positioned the gate at the foot of the stairs and as the Labrador pup grew, well - he vaulted the gate and explored the mystical "upstairs realm" ! We re-positioned the gate up a step and that seems to have solved that problem... gate still works really well and the spring-loaded catch, whose spring feels lighweight is still doing its job.

I bought this gate for the top of my stairs not for a child but for an adult who was at risk of falls. The idea was to stop him trying to get down the stairs on his own.It done the above with ease. Easy enough to install to the wall or wooden frame. Pretty lightweight for what it is and made of.The gate locks easy when closing the gate. And easy enough to open if you know how. Comes in white with an easy to clean surface. When fixed to a brick wall it's is very very sturdy so there is no way it's going to fail. It's guaranteed safety as long as you fit it correctly.The great part is because the gate is fixed to the wall with hinges. There is no bottom bar to step over which is great.When installing the gate make sure you alter the gate to the correct size. Altering the size of the gate is fairly easy.I actually still can't get over the fact this is so cheap.This must be the cheapest gate I've ever purchased but also one of the best.For all the above reasons I can honestly say I highly recommend this gate.It's great value for money too. Which means you get a quality product for a cheap price.

The media could not be loaded. A bit tricky to install at first but we saw the video on YouTube and the steps were easy to follow. Well, my hubby did the installation.I love how you can use it for different types of door space as well which can be adjusted to fit the space you’ve got. It has been the best thing we’ve got to prevent the toddlers from going into to kitchen to take snacks or open drawers with sharp objects and all lol and I can cook with ease without them pulling me around. lol

I have had this gate for quite a while and it has kept my manic boxer dog at bay from being a pup to adulthood. It was easy to install and very secure just wish I could get hinges etc rather than having to replace the whole thing as it now tends to pull off when you lift it.

Good product, but quite complicated instructions to follow, just pictures no written instructions, and took about 2 hours to put up not as simple as expected
