Bought this originally almost a decade ago and bought again when we needed another. More expensive, but it is very sturdy and lasts. Worth the price and looks great!

Awsome gate

I bought this extra wide gate for our porch to contain our wild 2 year old. The adjustable width was exactly what we needed. It ended up being slightly taller than I expected to fit perfectly between beams (I was only concerned about width and didn’t think to measure height 🫣) but we made it work! Opens and closes perfectly.

We have searched for a sturdy gate that was wider than most on the market to fit in our RV between the coach side and the cockpit side. We have 2 large dogs, one of which insists on sitting in the lap of the human passenger, which doesn’t make for a comfortable trip for whomever is sitting in that seat. This gate fits the bill very well but I have three suggestions for anyone considering it:First, the gate is, in my opinion, quite sturdy. We were able to use the expansion panels so that there wasn’t a lot of play where the bolts extend to meet the wall, reducing the flex at that point quite a bit compared with other gates where those bolts had to be extended to the max. However, this gate is designed more for a semi-permanent kind of installation instead of one where the gate will be frequently installed, removed, then reinstalled (our need). Accordingly, the bolts that come with the gate screw into the expansion panels with a nut that is used to tighten the screw portion to keep the bolt length fixed. I took a drill bit slightly larger than the outside thread diameter of the bolts and drilled out the threads on the expansion panels so that the bolts would slide in and out without much play. That allowed me to quickly move the bolts into place and tighten the nut against the expansion panel. You may need to add a washer on the expansion panel side to make this work well but I happened to have the same size bolts from an old gate that had a quick release knob so I used them instead.Second, if you are not going to fix the gate in a semi-permanent fashion you may want to look at Wall Nanny Indoor Baby Gate Wall Protectors (or similar) to use as the wall receptacle for the pressure bolts rather than the hard plastic ones that come with the gate. Just a. thought.Finally, you may want to check the little screw receivers that are used to fasten the small screws used to attach the expansion panels to make sure they fit through the holes in the panels before you try to assemble an expanded gate. I discovered that several of the holes weren’t drilled quite large enough to accommodate the screw receivers and had to drill them out just a bit to allow the receiver to go through them.All in all, a good, sturdy gate, especially considering its length. I would buy it again.

Sturdy, attractive and useful for my pets. No instructions were included though.

Best gate I've ever purchased

This is the second time I purchased this gate. The first was about 5 years ago and I installed it to keep my two Labrador Retrievers out of the living room. It is well made but over time with two large dogs jumping up on it and hitting it whenever they would go in and out took it's toll. I did not hesitate to buy the same one again. It is super easy to set up and adjust it to whatever size your doorway opening is. It comes with extra gate segments if you need to accommodate a wide opening. The latch is easy to use and doesn't require any effort and locks securely. There are plastic protectors that slide over the top and bottom rails to cover the screws and gives it a finished look. The gate opens like a door and can be opened toward you or away from you which is a nice feature. I also like that this is made of metal and has a more elegant look to it than a plastic gate.

I bought this gate less than a year ago. The gate itself is a little wobbly when installed across a wide doorway, but held and worked fine. The problem is that the brackets that attach this metal gate are plastic.If you look at the photo for the upper latch this is the piece that failed. The entire gate slides into the small circle area on the latch while the rest is screwed to the wall. The only thing holding the gate in place is a thin plastic circle.My 48lb dog put his paws on the top of the gate, like how they jump up to see over something. It was not like he was using the gate as a balance beam. , The inner circle that holds the gate to the wall stretched or wore just enough to where the gate tension bar now pops out and the gate won't hold in place.I contacted their customer service to see if I could purchase replacement parts, just those plastic brackets, and they replied that they do not sell any replacement parts. I've attached their response and a screen shot from their manual for part reference.Buyer beware, this is an expensive metal gate held to the wall by plastic, and they do not support their product. So now after less than a year of use, I've got a useless gate that I'll have to rig somehow.Even without the dog pushing on the gate, the normal flexing and use of the gate was already causing plastic wear. It seems like the manufacturer would foresee this, but instead I guess they prefer we buy an entire new gate. It is certainly not unreasonable to expect a nearly $200 gate to at least last a year.
