Description

The Center GateWay from KidCo is a baby gate which is one of the top rated gates around. It is pressure mounted so it will not damage any walls around the home. It is a top of the line safety gate in terms of construction and design because it is made of tubular steel. It also stands a robust 29.5 inches tall, making it a child gate perfect for children as well as pets. The GateWay is for doorway use and is not recommended for the top of stairs. The child gate has many features which help set apart as a top rated gate.

The U-shaped frame of the KidCo gate remains firmly installed while the center gate opens in either direction. This is a big feature for parents who are carrying a child while trying to open the gate. The baby gate can be used with two extensions, SKU G5.5, to form a gate width of 48 inches. Only two extensions can be used with the baby safety gate from KidCo. Installation is easy as it only requires placing the mounting pads to the wall and using the pressure mounting system to place the child safety gate on the wall. KidCo is one of the top rated manufacturer’s of gates. This KidCo gate is certainly one of the best.

Reviews

  easy to install - Felicia, Duluth, GA

It was a bit uncomfortable with the pressure mount system until we installed the gate. It is very sturdy - I did a few tests of my own by bouncing a basket ball against it and tugging and pulling on the gate. It did not budge and I'm very happy with the product

  I'd give it 10 stars if I could - Sylvia, USA

This is our second KidCo gate and at this point I don't think that I would consider another manufacturer for safety gates. Honestly, I don't know what some of the other manufacturers are thinking when they design their gates. We bought this gate after buying and returning three other gates (all different brands). We use this gate to keep our 1 1/2 year old in his room without having to close the bedroom door. It is pressure mounted so we did not have to do any drilling and can move it if we need to, although it is not designed to be moved frequently. It probably took me all of 10-15 minutes to install. It is solid and will not budge from the door once installed. It is a two step process to open it, but that is what keeps the little guy from figuring it out. The only drawbacks I see are the price and that it will partially lock shut when my son plays with it if I leave it open and then he gets upset. Oh, and they failed to put in instructions in the box, but I was able to easily download and print them from their website. But definitely BY FAR the best gate we have bought, in fact we are off to buy another one to keep him from destroying the office.

  Safety Hazard - Tina, NC

We bought this gate to use with our 13 month old and were very excited not have to install hardware to the wall. It was up for about 24 hours when I heard the baby cring that cry that you know they are in pain. I found her at the gate, both knees were wedged between the vertical poles. I managed to get one knee out but had to put vegtable oil on the other one to free it. She of course was screaming the whole time and her knees were bruised. Very nice design but I bought it for safety and that's not what I got. The company said they just shortened the space between the rails, but I think it's too close now seeing how her knees got stuck. Good luck to anyone trying to keep little ones out of harms way. That's a job in itself.

  The gate of my dreams!!! - LindsayAnne, USA

We rent in a house in Brooklyn that is over 100 years old and were told by our landlord we could not install safety gates with hardware into the original banisters. We tried several different baby gates before we came across the greatest gate of all, the Kidco Center Gateway. I was hesitant to purchase another gate, especially when I saw the $75 price tag. But I got home and was able to install this gate quickly and easily and for the first time could remove all obstacles from in front of the stairs. The gate comes with two extensions should you have a wider area than the gate covers. The directions were not very clear, but assembly was easy -- just insert plastic pieces and insert screws into plastic for pressure mounting against walls/rails. Then just adjust on the wall/banister where you need the gate. Since each pressure piece is adjusted separately, this gate is excellent for uneven spaces (baseboards, etc.). And, there is a doorway that opens so you don't have to remove the gate every time you need to get through.

  This gate exceeded my expectations - Michelle, Cuyahoga Falls, OH

I purchased this gate just recently because I have a eleven month old son who is always trying to climb up the stairs. I purchased an inexpensive gate several months ago and it wouldn't even mount properly. There are several reasons why I am so pleased with this gate: 1). It's pressure mounted so there are no holes in my walls.2). Each of the pressure mounts can be adjusted individually. What I mean by that is each pressure mount twists forward until it reaches the wall. The reason this was so important for me was because my home has old wood work and the baseboards are almost seven inches high and about an inch thick. If each of the pressure mounts were not separately adjustable, then the gate would meet at the baseboard, but would not be able to touch the wall. This gate handles that dilemma beautifully. 3). It's extremely durable and sturdy. My son grasps onto it and shakes it violently and it doesn't budge. And because it's made of metal, there are no worries about splinters and cracking.4). It's attractive and comes in different colors. We choose white and it looks great. 5). It was wide enough that I could mount it at the bottom landing of our stairway without an extension. There are extension kits available if you need them though. 6). Finally, I like the swing door feature. I can use the gate with one hand so it's convenient when I have my son in the other hand. The handle is also very easy to open and close with one hand.I know this is a lot of info but when I was searching for a gate, these are the types of things I wanted to know. I highly recommend this gate to anyone looking for one for the bottom of their stairs or a doorway.

  Works for dogs too! - S.N., USA

It was a breeze to install...it has 4 pressure pads on each corner that just get pushed against the doorway and the gate also has a swinging door in the center that is very sturdy but easy to open so we can go into the room whenever we want. This is working so well that we're going to buy at least one more to keep the cats happy and the puppy out of trouble. The only concern I have is the gate isn't very tall and when the puppy turns into a dog, he will likely be able to hop right over the gate. But otherwise, this gate has impressed me. The strength of construction is truly impressive
