FAQs

What is the maximum width this gate can cover?

The Safetots Self Closing Gate (Model 10503) is designed for widths between 111cm and 118cm. For wider openings, separate one-piece gate extensions can be purchased.

Does this gate require drilling for installation?

No, this gate uses a pressure-fit system, meaning it installs securely without the need for drilling into walls or door frames.

Can the gate be opened with one hand?

Yes, the gate is designed with an intuitive one-hand opening mechanism for adults, while the double-lock system prevents children from opening it easily.

Is the gate safe for use at the top of stairs?

Yes, the gate is safety tested to comply with EN1930:2011 standards. The one-way gate stopper is a specific feature designed to enhance safety when used on stairs, directing the swing away from the steps.

What is the height of the gate when installed?

The installed height of the gate is 75.5cm.

What material is the gate made of?

The gate is constructed from durable metal with a high-quality, child-safe Matt Black paint finish.

How do I clean the Safetots gate?

Clean the gate using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals to maintain the finish and ensure safety.

Troubleshooting

Gate is wobbly or unstable

Ensure all pressure-fit screws are tightened evenly. Check that the wall or door frame surfaces are flat and firm. If using extensions, verify they are properly attached. Consider using wall cups for added stability on delicate surfaces.

Gate does not close automatically

Check if the gate is level. Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the swing mechanism. The door may need slight adjustment by re-tightening the pressure screws.

One-hand opening mechanism is stiff

Ensure the gate is properly aligned and securely fitted. Lightly lubricate the hinge points if necessary, using a silicone-based lubricant sparingly.

Gap between gate and frame when closed

This can occur if the gate is not perfectly level or if the pressure fit needs adjustment. Re-adjust the pressure screws to ensure an even fit and a secure closure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Ensure the desired opening width falls within the gate's specified range (check product packaging for exact measurements).
Position the gate in the opening and adjust the pressure-fit screws on the frame until the gate is firmly wedged between the walls or door frames.
Check that the gate is level and stable. If an extension is needed, attach it according to the included instructions before finalizing the pressure fit.
Engage the double-lock mechanism for full security. Ensure the one-way gate stopper is set as desired.

Compatibility:

This gate is designed for standard doorways and stair openings. It is compatible with flat, sturdy surfaces for the pressure fit to work effectively. Use with wall cups (sold separately or included, depending on model) is recommended for softer surfaces like wallpaper or skirting boards to prevent damage.

Care:

Clean the gate with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Periodically check the pressure screws to ensure they remain tight and the gate is secure.
Ensure the hinges and closing mechanisms are free from dust or debris.
