We moved into our new home almost a year ago and coming from a small home this meant more baby gates. I’m really particular as to what gates I install in my home for obvious safety reasons as well as style, look, durability and easy of use. The gate has a new clean look to it and it is very easy to open and close using one hand which is very important as most moms tend to have their hands full.
A great safety feature for the gate that I really like is that it can swing both ways or be locked in one direction for top of the stairs use. One of the biggest bonuses for the gate is the quick release feature which allows you to remove the gate if needed.
Stylish baby-proofing may sound like an oxymoron, but it’s possible to find a child gate that’s safe for use at the top of the stairs and matches your staircase, too. The Extending Metal safety gate by Munchkin has no unsightly adjustment holes along the bars, and is equipped with a unique tilting spring mechanism to reduce stress on walls every time it’s used. The spring mechanism allows the gate to tilt open or close, which minimizes pressure applied on walls. Handy quick-release settings allow for quick and easy removal when needed, too. Safe for use anywhere in the home (especially in the stairway), this hardware-mounted baby gate stands 29″ tall and fits openings 28″-40″ wide.
