Regalo 2-in-1 Extra Tall Easy Swing Stairway and Hallway Walk Through Baby Gate, Black 1 Count (Pack of 1) (40.5"W x 36"H)

I'm not sure why people are complaining so much- took me about an hour and a half to install, very very sturdy, looks nice, affordable and safe! I chose this top of the stairs gate because it was the right height and width. Make sure you measure the space and height you need before ordering any gate and then complaining about it. Love the flexibility with adjusting the width and that it comes with extra latches so you can install the gate to swing and latch inward or outward. 10/10! Thanks for helping me keep my toddler safe!

Works perfectly, instructions on installing were simple, I love the small adjustments that can be made to make sure it's going to lock correctly, for those like me who don't always mount the hardware perfectly level this kit comes with a paper guide to take to your walls to install the hardware correctly.

Had to find a gate that would fit top of the stairs, and connect to a newel post on each side. Surprisingly, there are few options out there for this (although plenty of 'adaptor' kits for other models, which practically doubles the price).Pros:- Very sturdy. Once put up and you tighten the straps to the posts, it can slide a bit (~1/4 inch), but it will NOT let go. I can push/pull this as hard as I want and it won't let go, so I'm 100% comfortable that my 1.5 year old crazy dude won't be able to rip it down.- Easy assembly. Instructions are clear, took about 20 minutes start to end to put up. Getting the little rubber corners underneath the straps was a bit tricky, but other than that, super simple.Cons:- Use of plastic. There are 2 very small plastic clips that surround the peg that goes into the hole at the top to secure the gate (presumably to aid in docking the peg to the hole). One broke off within 48 hours of having it up, but I see very little reason for their existence anyway. A couple of other posters mentioned this as well. No idea why you would craft this entire thing out of sturdy metal and then just toss these plastics clips on it. Doesn't make sense, but again, does not seem to affect the integrity of the gate.- Price. For what it is, it's a little on the high side, but not outrageous. I could be affected/biased by the fact that I have 3 other perfectly good gates that I couldn't use for the top of the stairs though. That said, if you need a gate for top of stairs, this is a very good one, and the price is ultimately comparable to similar stair specific models.- Operation. Definitely NOT a one handed operation to close. The easiest way is to use one hand to raise the whole gate up, then use the other hand to guide the pegs (top and bottom) into the holes. You 'can' do it one handed, but it's pretty difficult, and frankly not worth the effort. You can open easily with one hand however.Overall:Definitely would recommend this. Very solid gate, does exactly what it's supposed to (and needs to) do.In fact, I am going through research now for the bottom of the stairs, and will very likely land on this one again since it's so easy to put up and is secure.

Great and got here faster than expected! I am using this for my kitchen door to avoid my pups from escaping! I recommend it! The instructions are not super clear but after watching a video it was easy to assemble.

Great gate. We actually bought two that was a bargain from what I call an Amazon second chance store. We needed at least one immediately for our German Shepherd puppy 3 years ago and both have lasted flawlessly. However, the top hinge on one did crack and brake but honestly, no fault of Regalo manufacturing. She's an 80 bound dog and very energetic so after standing up on it to look over and greet you it's held up fine. No way I would buy a different gate than this one. Recently another gate was needed for a second one outside. Yes, outside in the elements and it's still going strong. I was very pleased to find the same gate and bought it for a walkway gate. Fact I'm about to buy another one for a new section to an up coming addition to the deck. However, I couldn't understand the frequently returned item message. I read some reviews and let me say, no, it is not that hard to assemble. I can't say much for the instructions. That was to long ago and the new gate I didn't even look at them. It's that easy to set up. You will need basic tools, a level, and probably something to set the hight of your liking at the bottom. From there place and mount the top hinge. The lower hinge falls into place then mount it. Level the gate by the gate hinge hooks that screw in the gate. Once level just mount the top and bottom latch where the gate meets the other side. Then enjoy your new iron looking gate. 5 stars all day long and a great value for what you get at it's cost.
