Can the gate be left open?

Troubleshooting

Gate feels wobbly or unstable

Ensure all four pressure screws are fully tightened against the wall or frame. Check that the wall cups are seated correctly and the wall surface is firm.

Gate does not close properly

Verify that the gate is installed perfectly straight and that no extensions are misaligned. Ensure no obstructions are preventing the gate from swinging freely.

Difficulty operating the one-handed lock

Ensure the gate is fully closed and latched. Sometimes, slight adjustments to the tension screws can help realign the locking mechanism.

The gate doesn't fit the opening

Re-measure your opening and compare it to the specified fitting range (68.5cm - 147.4cm with extensions). Ensure you have attached the correct extensions or removed them as needed.

  • Easy, drill-free installation and removal due to pressure-fit technology.
  • Convenient one-handed operation for busy parents.
  • Versatile fit for a wide range of opening sizes with included extensions.
  • Stylish, contemporary Matt Black finish.

Cons

  • Requires precise measurement to ensure a secure fit, especially with extensions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Measure Opening: Accurately measure the width of the opening where the gate will be installed. This gate, with extensions, fits openings from 68.5cm to 147.4cm.
  2. Assemble Gate: Attach any necessary extensions to the gate panels.
  3. Position Gate: Place the gate in the desired opening.
  4. Apply Pressure: Use the adjustment screws to tighten the gate. As you turn the screws, the gate will expand, creating tension against the walls or door frame. Ensure all four wall cups are firmly against the surfaces.
  5. Check Security: Once tight, ensure the gate is stable and does not wobble. The double-locking mechanism should engage securely.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for standard doorways and stairwells.
  • Requires flat, solid surfaces (walls or door frames) for the pressure pads to grip securely.
  • Not recommended for use at the top of stairs if mounting on a rounded banister post without a suitable mounting kit (sold separately).

Care:

  • Clean the gate with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they may damage the finish.
  • Periodically check the tension of the pressure screws to ensure the gate remains secure.
  • The finish is lick-safe and bite-proof, but regular cleaning will maintain its appearance.
