Baby Gate Advice

[Davey S2]

Ok I've looked on line and at several reviews but no purchase is complete without obtaining the thoughts of the PH massive.

The time has come for me to fit baby gates in the house to prevent our 8 month old from chasing the cats up and down the stairs.

We need one for the top and one for the bottom of the stairs. It's a new house so pretty standard stair widths. There is a wall on one side and a banister post on the other which the gate wil be fixed to.

I've been looking at the Babydan Flexi Fit Metal http://www.babydan.com/page1073.aspx?recordid1073=...

I dont mind having to screw it into the wall and banister.

The only stipulation is that it can't have a permanent bar across the bottom.

Anyone else have any other recommendations?

Thanks

Thansk for all the replies folks. Looks like it wil the babydan ones or the Lindam ones then. I need to check if they can be mounted straight or need to be on a slight angle.

We have a Lindlam one. We bought it off a local faacebook sale group. Only paid a tenner for it and it works really well. You need a spanner to adjust the fitting points. Use a proper spanner and not the crap thing that comes with gate.

Our baby is only 8 weeks old, so running isn't an issue. What is an issue is our greyhound, Herbie. We use it to keep him out of the bedroom until we let him in at 6am every morning. Thats every morning too. He doesn't know what weekends are

Half of the reviews on line are by dog owners!

I've ordered a couple of the Lindam ones as I don't need ones at an angle. Less than £50 for the pair including delivery.

Looks like a little job for me on the weekend so will report back on what they are like.
