Did not last long—the latching mechanism broke within six months. Expected a lot more time out of this gate, especially at this price point.
We struggled to find a gate that could hardware mount at the top of our stairs but still be out of the way when needed without requiring we cut into the molding at the base of the wall. The quick release is amazing. However, the install is tricky. The spacers and brackets do not slide together easily. We had to use multiple people's strength to get 2 spacers apart. My only complaint after install is that the gate creaks when we open/close it. I'm guessing because of all the yanking on it we had to do to get the pieces together (and then apart when we decided not to use one of the spacers).
Note that the gate is not designed to slide back and forth so it can collapse against the wall. It has locks to keep from sliding and can only slide into certain widths. Also, ensure you have no obstructions such as trim or railing above the hinge or latch area since it installs by sliding down from the top. The gate is designed to swing one way, and will only swing out over stairs to a 45 degree angle. The gate is well built. We use to keep dogs down or upstairs—they broke the wood gates so give this being metal it should hold up better. I do like the ease of working the latch with one hand and just pulling the gate closed it auto latches. Wish the hinges were metal and latch instead of plastic— especially at this high price point. I had to shim out hinge side due to trim above and drill holes in side where rail is since it blocked sliding down from top. Circled areas in red are the sliding locks, we left them unlocked so we can collapse gate when we open. Note if this for a child these should be locked since they may slide it open when latched. So far works well keeping big dogs contained.
I love the gate. Nice quality. Looks great. But my 2 year old opens it up, therefore it's useless to me. I wish these gate companies made a gate that a toddler can not open.
I've now received two defective gates. First gate had multiple scratches and the hinge would bind when opening gate. They sent me a replacement that had the same exact issues, scratches and binding hinge. One even had sharp metal near the edge where my child would grab. Both were from the same production lot. I asked for another replacement but only if from a different lot number. I want to like the gate for its appearance but the quality is unacceptable.
