Regalo Home Accents Extra Tall Walk Thru Baby Safety Gate 37 Inch New Zealand Pine

I love the look of this gate. It blends beautifully with just about any décor. The dark color and hardwood accents are really lovely and blend beautifully with hardwood flooring and furniture. The gate is relatively simple to install and it took me only 5 or 10 minutes to get set up. I used this at the bottom of my staircase to corral the grandkids. I think I would have to think twice about using it at the top, mainly because I have it stretched to it's max width. Gravity, in this case, is not necessarily your friend. My staircase is 44" wide, the maximum for this gate so it is necessary to extend the mounting screws just about all the way so it is not as secure as it is in a smaller opening. The instructions were clear and simple. The lock system is very good. You need to pinch both sides simultaneously and slide the mechanism to the left. No toddler would be able to open it easily and it would take them quite a long time (if ever) to figure out the mechanism. The height of the gate is quite tall which is perfect for homes with toddlers or large dogs. The extensions for the gate were really helpful since I needed both to use where I needed it. I wish they sold additional extensions but the parts list that came with the gate does not list them so I'm not sure they are available. It is nice to be able to swing it open and walk through rather than climbing over the old wooden gate I had. This gate is great for the limited use of a Grandma but looks every bit tough enough for daily toddler or pet use. Overall, I am quite impressed.

I am really enjoying this safety gate. I have a large dog that can usually jump over normal sized gates, but this one is tall enough that she can't jump over it. I also like the locking part of it. It is high enough and difficult enough that my 1 year old grand daughter can't reach or figure out how to open it. Most gates are lower and most kids can figure them out, I have no doubt that this one will not be able to be opened by her or any child that I have in my house. I'm not sure about the extra wide part of it, not sure if you have to buy extensions for this or not. Mine is no wider than a normal sized door way. I was hoping that it was extra wide for a door way that I have. But even though it's not extra wide, the tall part of it is great. It is a very sturdy gate that will last for along time and with stand some roughness from children.
