Summer Infant Stylish n' Secure 6 Foot Extra Tall Metal Expansion Gate

Purchased this to help keep our Jack Russell Terrier out of the living room mainly because we have a double-door doorway. Install was quite quick, took about 20 minutes from unpack till carried out. I see folks complaining about permanent - although this is true within the sense, which you cant simply move from one doorway to one more - the gate may be effortlessly removed from the little brackets that are screwed for the trim in the doorway (or wall within your case) - so just pop the gate out in the brackets, the brackets aren't an eye sore!

Regalo Extra Wide Widespan Gate, White

I ordered this gate to keep my 2 full grown german shepherds in a specific area in my house. It works wonderful, assembly took all 5 minutes. I place the gate in a 58" door opening,but I think that it'll fit an ever bigger opening. Anyways, very good price and top quality.

Summer Infant Sure and Secure 6 Foot Metal Expansion Gate

We've two of these installed in our house, and they've been in use for many months. I have a monkey-baby who insist on climbing/shaking/kicking the gates, so they've been tested to the fullest. They're fairly simple to install, even though the directions were somewhat hard to understand. Thankfully, when you have a look at the pieces, it is quite simple to determine.

Regalo Easy Open Super Wide Walk Thru Gate - White

I purchased this gate, with an extension, to go in the leading of the stairs to be applied as a doggy gate. Was happy with the product, effortless to install, the only drawback was the narrow opening to walk through. This would most likely not work with anyone who was overweight. The component you walk via is only about 16-1/2" wide. Aside from that, was satisfied with the product for the price I paid.

North States Supergate Extra Wide Swing Gate

I purchased this gate to keep two little dogs enclosed in my kitchen. It has been best for that job! It looks very nice, it was simple to install, and it was perfectly inexpensive. It might not be strong adequate to withstand a massive dog or youngster pushing/leaning on it but that is certainly not an issue with my Frenchies. I'm extremely pleased with my buy!

KidCo Configure Gate

I'm quite happy with the gate, although I had to spend $250 to make it fit the bottom of my stairs. I removed the left 24" panel, replaced with an 8" extension, then inserted 3 more 8" extensions on the right. The $30 8" extensions are way too expensive for what you get I think (and often arrive with scratches and rust due to the extra pole in the box).

Dreambaby Retractable Gate

We really needed a gate at the top of the stairs so that when I turn my eyes away from my son (briefly!), he doesn't crawl off and fall down them. However, we also have a cat and two English mastiffs in the house with free rein so I didn't want to have a permanent swing gate. This was the ideal solution. We don't have it up a majority of the time but when we do, it works great. My son pushes on it, but it doesn't budge; he can't fit under it and even the dogs and cat respect the boundary. We have had it for a few months, and no problems!
