Worked with wrought iron railings!

The best option I could find for wrought iron stairs on one side of the stairs and walking on the other. My apartment was built in 1974 and it was very difficult for me to find a baby gate. I bought Y-adapters in two packs from the same company, thanks to them the gate system worked for our house. Note: The photos show gates with Y adapters.

Pros
  • hands free
Cons
  • ugly packaging

You can buy better quality at lower price

Don't buy! I bought 3 different brands, this is the most expensive but much worse than the other two. When I opened it I couldn't believe my eyes that it was rusty in many places. The material is thin and the design looks cheap. The other two I bought are cheaper, stronger, better looking and have more useful features like stay open and auto close. That should save at least half the price. Also note that if you intend to use it with Y-spindles, if you over-tighten the gate, the railing could be

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Wonderful! My only regret is that I didn't buy sooner!

I bought this gate after buying another passage gate. Regalo Easy Open Super Wide Walk Thru Gate - White I had to sell this gate because the only way to make it secure was to screw cups into the door frame. Otherwise it's loose enough for my 24 lb dog to push. I wish I had bought it straight away! Sometimes you really do get what you pay for and this is one of those times. Yes, Regalo gates cost half as much, but they're completely unsafe. KidCo goals are amazing. Very easy to install. VERY…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

No structural integrity

This goal is made of very poor quality materials and is very fragile. If you try to push the top bracket against the wall, the frame just flexes and never snaps properly. When the gate is closed it holds, but when open it is very prone to falling. The gates don't stay open either, they close themselves which is very frustrating. The self closing also tends to trap my children between the gate and the outbuilding as it allows the child to close the gate on themselves but does not allow it to be…

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Difficult to say

Review with extension guide

This works well for the high traffic area we installed it in. I was able to install it myself, although I'm notoriously bad at assembling things. It has a wide gate opening and is easy to open. Very happy with my purchase. Most frustrating moments when buying this gate: - Finding one that has a wide door, not just for a wide door - Figuring out if the gate will fit my door and if any extensions are needed. Out-of-the-box extension guide published (posted below) throughout manufacturer product…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Only available in black

Good product and relatively easy to install

Good product and relatively easy to install at the bottom and top of the stairs. I know the manufacturer warns against using the gate at the top of the stairs, but the overall design and installation really isn't any different from other brands of pressure plumbing that suggest the pressure pad cups need to be installed on the walls in order to to be used on the stairs. . I think the manufacturer is just too cautious to avoid a future lawsuit. I originally bought a Regalo brand gate but found…

Works With My Pet: Door & Stair Gate

We adopted an elderly dog with some behavioral issues and wanted to make sure he wasn't wandering around the house when we were away. I didn't want anything permanent so we went with a pressurized swing gate and Kidco mostly lived up to expectations. Overall quality is generally good. The product is made from white powder coated steel and appears to be quite durable. The only real quality issue I see is that the locking mechanism is mostly plastic and it seems like it will fail first over time.

  • GOLS Certified

I repeat the benefits that previous reviewers have written about, so I won't repeat myself. I agree that the instructions are not the best but the gate is intuitive but once you have all the parts arranged the assembly and protection is intuitive if you are good at assembling the product. I also bought this gate for the top of my stairs where I have a wall on one side and iron railing on the other. That being said, I agree with Megan's April 2013 review that while the box and instructions…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • I don't like anything about it, everything is fine

Worth every penny! for gates and extensions

I can only recommend this gate! We use it at the base of our basement stairs and it's just what we need. Installation wasn't difficult at all. I would recommend reading the entire manual first and looking at the pictures on the back, but the entire installation only took about 15 minutes with my 3 years of help. Things I love: 1. Nice and wide gate (the part that opens is wider than any other gate I've seen. It's very helpful when you're trying to move with a baby on one hip and a laundry…

Pros
  • practical article
Cons
  • so far so good
