BalanceFromWalk Thru Safety Gate for Baby and Pets, Doorways, Stairways, Hallways, Fits 29.1-33.8 Inch Openings, 36 Inch Height, Graphite

As indicated, I ordered 2 gates one had the extensions on it and that's the one I installed first. This one was simpler because it did not have extensions and aligned fairly easily between the door facings. I didn't realize that I had one end up a little too high off the floor. I've finally fixed that by unscrewing things a bit and repositioning the right side.The pictures of the gap/opening of the gate are from the extension gate assembly but it's the same either one.Being a bit "old school" I had a bit of difficulty figuring out how the Threaded Spindle Rods would hold, because they just slipped in and out of the holes for them in the gate. I expected them to be affixed to the gate then screw onto (against) the surface of the walls/door facing. When you rotate the white wheel on "the adjustment bolts along the threading" in order to "shrink the space between the adjustment bolt and rubber foot", that creates the blocking force for the bolts against the Gate Frame. Ingenious new school.I purchased the small "Wall Nanny" blocks from Amazon to go against the wall in order to protect the walls and door facings that were involved. This gate not having extensions and being installed by myself, the Wall Nany blocks were easily contained with working the bolts to help hold them by alternating the adjustments.As mentioned, I installed both gates myself (and was really exhausted when I did that as it was late). This gate will require either reaching down to the floor or getting down on the floor to work with the bottom part of the Gate Frame and bolts. I reached down from a sitting position for this one, which explains the gap I didn't see until after-the-fact.On this gate I did not cut the tie that held the gate to the frame. I didn't see the notice on the one with extensions and cut it pretty much first thing. That just made the one with extensions very unwieldly. However, it is manageable if you do inadvertently cut the tie. Just troublesome here and there because the gate can swing while you're attempting to balance everything and get it installed. With extensions it was also that the extensions were unwieldly at times.Closing the gap was a little confusing for me. There is an embossed line on the part that fits somewhat inside the Lock Slot. If it is not aligned properly, the top part of the gate can be pushed open. I noticed the little piece in the lower part seemed to hang in there but it is tiny. With it aligned properly (the embossed line just inside the slot), you will need to properly squeeze and lift the handle in order to open the gate. The gate swings both directions, will stay open at a 90 degree or more angle to the gate frame. It will also close automatically if not at a 90 degree angle or with a small nudge. Because I have a small dog who could be injured by the gate and a large dog who would just freak out if it moved, I have a bungee cord holding the gate open at night where they access in and out of the room.I am tall and more padded than I wish, so for a while the gates felt very close when I walked through them. I had a balance problem for a few days and had to watch the frame piece that is exposed when the gate is open. If someone has issues with balance or stepping, you might consider that before purchasing. And, of course, I move stuff around fairly often so it either has to be lifted over the gate(s), take the gate(s) down or just leave that kind of stuff where it is. ha ha. I've adjusted to walking through the gates now. I installed them December 28th. And, my balance problems have also resolved so I'm not intimidated by the frame on the floor with the open gate.I knew this gate was white and ordered it. The picture on the extension gate was a light brown and I really wanted white. I was pleased when white showed up. I still do not see an option for color on the ordering of that gate.Okay - I was looking to write a review on the gate with the extensions and the review I just wrote pops up. My review still here, I'll just add to it. You can see in the picture with the dog that I have arrows pointing to the place where the "anchors" are somewhat installed. I have been looking at those for days and when I put a hand on them (ingress/egress) the anchors move. In addition, I had installed the gate with a little bit of a lean towards the direction of the dog. (I had balance issues then, so that might account for the gap and the lean of the two gates.)As I was working on it tonight, I observed the extensions on the floor as I screwed and unscrewed the bolts towards/away from the wall. That made me take note of the top of the extensions. After having fixed the lean, I started over again and flipped the extensions bottom-to-top. Yep, they were upside-down. BUT very much correctly aligned and easier to deal with the anchors at that point. The carpet hid the bottom of the frame from me otherwise when I installed them. So, let's see, what else? Other pictures? I think so. A couple out of order but they don't reposition without deleting.What made this gate unwieldly to install was my inadvertently cutting the tie that held the gate to the frame, the extensions would not stay in until I used the anchors (had I used them properly then I wouldn't have had to redo this after-the-fact). Things just kept flipping and falling. For that, a second pair of hands would have been nice. Other than that, I think that's it. I'm just curious if this will be in the final review or if I'll have to add something later.You can see the Wall Nanny blocks in many of the pictures. I went with the smaller ones because I had baseboards and door facings involved. Being smaller was also less obvious for the ones on the wall. These were installed December 28th and when I redid things this evening (1/8/22) I did not see any reverse markings of "Wall Nanny" on my wall nor impressions of the blocks.The gates are made in China "to USA" I believe the boxes noted. "Wall Nanny" blocks are made in USA.

I'm quite happy with this gate. I installed it in the doorway to my home office so I can leave the door open but keep the pets out. It works like it should. The pets can't fit between the bars and, so far, haven't tried to jump over it. It's easy to open (just lift a half-inch or so) and even easier to close--it swings shut and self-latches. Also, if opened at a 90° angle, it catches in place and stays open, which is handy for when the door is closed--I don't have to open both the door and the gate to go in or out. The only issue, an inconsequential one, is that sometimes my foot trips on the solid bar across the bottom, which stands up about an inch from the floor.

I bought this gate to corral my new puppy in when I want some peace. For that purpose, it has worked out great. It is study and installation was very easy and straight-forward. My small dog has jumped up on it with force, and the latch has never given way. Overall, I'm pleased with it. It looks as advertised and there have been no surprises. Your experience might be different if you have a large dog or a smart child that might be able to get past it, but in my experience, I'm pleased with it!

This safety gate has been a great addition to our home, especially with a curious toddler and a playful pet. The installation was straightforward, and the gate feels sturdy once set up. I love how easy it is to walk through with the one-hand operation—super convenient when carrying the baby!I’m giving it 4 stars because while it works well for standard doorways, the adjustment mechanism could be a bit smoother. It took some effort to get it perfectly aligned in our slightly uneven hallway. Also, the latch is secure, but it occasionally requires an extra push to fully lock.

Great! It works without drilling. Also nice spring closure. Wanted to be able to keep doors open for better hvac airflow and keep the dogs out. Works great! I ordered another for the other room too.
