FAQs

What is the maximum width the Multi-Panel Solution can cover?

The standard Multi-Panel Solution covers openings from 67cm to 105.5cm. With additional panels (sold separately), it can extend up to 128cm.

Is the Diagonal Fit Gate safe for the top of stairs?

Yes, the Diagonal Fit Gate is specifically designed without a bottom bar, which significantly reduces the risk of tripping, making it particularly suitable for use at the top of stairs.

Do both gates open in both directions?

Yes, both the Multi-Panel Solution and the Diagonal Fit Gate open in both directions. The Diagonal Fit Gate's opening direction can also be restricted to one way if desired.

What type of mounting does this Safetots product use?

Both the Multi-Panel Solution and the Diagonal Fit Gate are screw-mounted for enhanced stability and security. They come with all necessary fixing kits.

How do I clean the Safetots gates?

Clean the gates using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning materials.

Are these gates tested for safety?

Yes, both gates pass EN1930 safety barrier testing, ensuring they meet European safety standards for child safety barriers.

Can adults open the gate easily with one hand?

Yes, the gates feature a secure double-action locking mechanism that can be operated with one hand by adults but is designed to be difficult for children and pets to open.

Troubleshooting

Gate does not close or latch properly

Check that the gate is installed level and that the wall brackets are securely tightened. Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the latch from engaging. Re-adjust the mounting position if necessary.

Locking mechanism is stiff

Ensure the mechanism is clean and free from debris. Apply a small amount of lubricant if recommended in the manual. Check for any misalignments in the gate or frame.

Gate feels loose after installation

Verify that all screws for the mounting brackets are fully tightened into solid wall material. If using wall plugs, ensure they are appropriate for your wall type and the plugs themselves are secure.

Diagonal Fit Gate is difficult to remove

Ensure the quick-release mechanism is fully disengaged as per the instructions. Check for any binding or debris that might be obstructing the release.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Read Instructions: Carefully review the provided instructions before beginning installation.
  2. Choose Location: Identify the desired mounting points on your wall or door frame.
  3. Mark Holes: Use the provided template or gate itself to mark screw hole positions.
  4. Drill Holes: Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. Ensure you are drilling into suitable wall material (e.g., studs, masonry).
  5. Mount Brackets: Secure the mounting brackets using the provided screws.
  6. Attach Gate: Attach the gate to the mounted brackets according to the instructions.
  7. Adjust & Secure: Ensure the gate is level and securely fastened. Test the locking mechanism.

Compatibility:

  • The Multi-Panel Solution is designed for openings from 67cm to 105.5cm, and can be extended up to 128cm with additional panels (sold separately).
  • The Diagonal Fit Gate is designed to fit most standard staircases and doorways. Its screw-fit system allows for fitting across openings where standard gates may not.
  • Both gates are suitable for use at the top or bottom of stairs, though the Diagonal Fit Gate's lack of a bottom bar makes it especially recommended for top-of-stairs use.

Care:

  • Clean the gates with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
  • Periodically check that all screws are tight and the gate is securely mounted.
  • Ensure the locking mechanism remains free of debris and operates smoothly.
