Dreambaby Swing Closed Hallway Security Gate, Black

solid features, easy installation, great looks
dreambaby gate model L170 /L191

We have about a 48" wide opening. For those of you wondering about what extensions to get add the follow extensions (according to the manual):
41.7"-46" (106-117 cm): L159/L192 (3" ext)
45.2"-49.5" (115-126 cm): L171/L193 (7" ext)
59.5"-63.7" (151-162cm): L172/L194 AND L172/L194 (two 10" ext?)

Other than that the instructions are okay, its hard to follow with the multiple languages but once you learn where to look its a straight-forward installation. The gate works great, auto-closes just fine.

Hardest part was finding the correct combination of extensions to buy in order to fit our gap.

We only have a small dog so we haven't had any problems. I can't speak on what a child could do but in my opinion it would work great.
Perfect gate, easy to install & easy to use!

When I first received this gate, I was concerned that it would be difficult to install. It came with paper instructions & an installation DVD, which never worked on my DVD player. But you can go to the company's website and watch the install video there. From that I realized how easy it would be to install.

I installed the gate at the bottom of the stairs...(it's NOT recommended for the top of the stairs.) The install was simple enough. I just made sure everything was level, placed the little cups on the wall, which adds extra stability. The cups come with adhesive tape, which is nice and strong or if you prefer you can use the included screws, but it's not required. I then tightened the 4 posts and it was done!

I especially like that it closes automatically. I have a 7 year old daughter that...
The BEST Gate Ever!!
We must have read a million reviews in search for the right gate. After buying 3 other kinds of gates (which now sit in our garage) for the bottom and top of our staircase, we stumbled into these gates and were impressed by the reviews.

We finally decided to buy them in March of 2011 and WOW! Everything the good reviews said a much more! We have not had to look at another gate since. We have a very active toddler with playdates with other active toddlers who swing and test the gates more often than we can admit and the gates still stand strong. WE LOVE them!!

I also loved that you didn't have to screw anything into the walls the gates are sheer magic--they WORK. I wouldn't spend money on any other gate. You can go to their site (like we did) get the measurements of your doors/staircases etc and they have a sheet there that will tell you exactly what size gate and or extension you need. Very helpful. Very good quality and it looks very nice too as an...
