Great quality gate
We have a deck with a long set of descending stairs. We wanted a sturdy gate that secures the opening so no kids go tumbling down the stairs. This gate is sturdy, matches our black deck railings, and installs easily. This gate has an adjustable width as well as a lock to set which way it opens. It has lasted two winters so far and still works great!

Great buying experience!
I purchased 2 of the outdoor safety gates. One with an extension.After watching the included video link, I installed the first gate with the extension in a very short time. It looks good and works well. Very sturdy.The second gate had a defect in the latch assembly.I called the customer service # and was answered promptly. After emailing a picture and some info, the part was sent out the same day.Second gate went up easier than the first.I highly recommend these gates and this company.This was the best customer service experience I have ever had.I read alot of complaints about the instructions when checking feedback. I suggest that you watch the video before installing the gate. The link is listed at the bottom of the page. Just scan the QR code with your phone.I am a 67 year old woman and I installed these gates with no problem.

Unfortunate review update: She is rusting!!!
Another update and I have given 4 stars. The company sent me new hardware to replace the rusted hardware. I will change it out and hope it is stainless. Not sure why my previous hardware rusted other then it’s a poor metal and was not stainless steel.I just wanted to update this review since in the past few days I noticed the stainless steel hardware is rusting. At this rate I imagine next year it will be rusted out. I am really bummed because stainless steel is not supposed to rust it is intended for outdoor usage and the elements. That is why I purchased this outdoor gate. I wrote the company and will update as soon as I hear anything back.I just got it today so I can’t vouch for longevity but for the price point it was exactly what I was needing. I liked how it was aluminum and designed for exterior use. I might get my own screws since I read some mixed reviews on them rusting out. All of the other metal gates were in the ballpark of $400 plus they were not adjustable. This one really works well. I have a 25 pound dog I wanted to keep on the deck and wildlife off of it. I plan to build my own gate for the long run but I am pleased with this and it was easy to install.

Fantastic, secure gate
This outdoor gate has been awesome. I have a one, two, and five year old and it has held up at the top of the stairs on our deck. My five year old has ADHD/ASD and Iâm always concerned about her taking off outside. But she has yet to figure out this gate which has been a relief. It has gotten a little difficult to latch/unlatch as time has gone on, Iâm assuming from exposure to the elements. But Iâm not really complaining too much because itâs so sturdy. Now to find a fully 5 year old proof gate for indoors!

Just what I needed
Came with all the hardware needed. Easy to assemble. Used this outside on my deck to prevent toddlers from access to the pool.

Check and double check measurements.
Had to modify the gate in several places to get it to work. Used the gate on my front porch.

Solid outdoor gate, great for children
Assuming this product hasn’t changed in the last year, I am a big fan. I’ve had one installed outside in the Pacific Northwest for over a year. It gets rained on often and has only the slightest bit of oxidation on a spot on the underside of the gate where where water tends to sit the most. Otherwise it looks practically new.The latch mechanism is very simple in design and construction, but very effective. It even confuses my wife sometimes. You have to precisely push both small latches down completely or either one will catch on the gate and prevent it from lifting out. It’s not easy to open if you are, say, trying to carry armfuls of stuff. However, a young child is extremely unlikely to figure it out, since you have to precisely unlatch and lift simultaneously before pushing it open.The fit was perfect for my deck entrance. It feels very solid. It’s pretty enough. It’s just a nice gate overall. My only complaint is that I wanted a second one recently and the price has gone up significantly from my first purchase. I still feel like the increased price is worth it, though.
