The media could not be loaded. Once we got the measurements and read the first page or two of the instruction manual, we had no problem installing the gate. It was super easy, easier than I even anticipated. Just want to stress the importance of not messing with the tightening once you've cut the red zip tie that has a sign that says do not cut until after install. It messes with the way the gate shuts. Make sure it's secure, cut the red zip tie and don't mess with it. It works beautifully. I'm so happy with it. Easily worth the money. We're getting at least 3 more because we have 3 levels of our home and 2 sets of stairs so we'll have a total of 4 gates. We simply used the pressure based install rather than the screws because our home is newly renovated and we don't want to mess up the walls and the brand new banisters. It's insane how sturdy this baby gate is. I'm thoroughly impressed and I absolutely love how nice it looks. 10 out of 10 recommend.

UPDATE:::

This update has everything to do with having to remove the gate and then reinstall it. I genuinely believed once you install the gate (using the pressure mounts only) that it absolutely could not be removed and reinstalled. Boy was I wrong. Yes, the initial instructions say not to cut the big red zip tie until you've finished the installation, but it's not as scary as they make it seem. You can literally remove this gate however many times you need to and then reinstall it just fine. The one thing you will need, however, is heavy duty zip ties (or multiple regular but elongated zip ties). Which we had because we had been in the process of moving . Because we moved into our newly renovated home very recently from a super tiny 2 bedroom apartment, we had to buy a lot of new furniture. I was concerned about the fact that we wouldn't be able to reinstall the baby gates if we had to remove them and we were fully prepared to just chuck these in that case and buy 2 new gates. I mean, what the heck are you supposed to do with a toddler running around? Just not put in a gate because it's gonna get in the way 3 weeks later when the furniture is delivered??? Of course not. What happens when you remove the pressure from the pressure mounts is that the door part of the gate basically separates and your first instinct is to panic. Which is exactly what I did. But fear not, for I have the answer! You're absolutely going to need to use some brute force and some sort of zip tie, be it heavy duty or just basic, but what you need with the zip tie is to simply "scrunch" it to the point you can get the gate back into the place you had it installed initially. For us, we had them at the top and bottom of our staircase. As long as it fits, all you have to do is reinstall it like you did the first time. And I did this for the bottom and top of our staircase. Once you get the gate to fit through the space you needed it to fit into, you just keep spinning the little black piece around the screw on both sides and both top and bottom until it's back into place and BAM it works just like it did before. Because of this, I am an even bigger fan of these gates. They look amazing they function perfectly and you can remove them over and over if necessary. Freaking awesome.

Again, this is only for the pressure mount option. I have no idea if this works for the permanent screw mount.

The gate is very well made and does a great job. The styling works well in a home because is is made of metal.

This is a nice gate but if you use it for large dogs that jump the plastic attachments tend to not hold up as well. Wish they made the attachments a little more sturdy. Overall it works well but can use a little improvement.

Product works great to keep toddlers safe from stairs .

I needed something to keep my cat away from the crazy dogs. This works great. The included extension pieces will adapt to a huge door opening. I only needed one of them. It is also high enough that the dogs can't jump over it. Installation was easy. But READ THE INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS FIRST. This is very important because there is a big red tie-wrap by the latch. That stays in place until AFTER the gate is in place. Then cut it. I wish it was a reusable tie-wrap in-case you need to move the gate. The latch mechanism is easy to use. Slide button and lift the gate a bit. The auto close is a nice feature. Plus, it will stay open if you open it all the way. Construction is amazing. Welded heavy gauge steel with a powder coat finish.
