For a short person it is not easy to get thru the opening, especially with something in your arms. The gate part SHOULD BE WIDER.

This is my second gate because I liked the first one so well. It was very easy to install and works great!

Very easy to install and use. Keeps the dogs and cats in their room when they need to be away from the rest of the house.

This gate is very nice. It is exactly what I was expecting. I love the latch set up ! It’s perfect !!

The gate was easy to install but the door needs to be wider. I have to turn sideways to go through it.

Got one to separate my dogs between rooms. Works great! I liked it so much I purchased another one for the stairs. Very easy to get through.

I have 3 kids and 2 have special needs so I need to be able to keep them in certain areas of the house to keep them safe. The other gates I have seen were way too small or flimsy. I needed something very sturdy and tall to keep my 7 year old at least somewhat contained. The problem is that he figured out how to open it with literally seconds. He looked at it from one angle then another and then opened it right up. I will be purchasing an alarm to put on it so I can tell if he opens it.

i bought this for my hallway to separate a new cat I unexpectedly inherited from my house cat. first off this is the tallest gate that I could find on the market and is plenty tall for deterring cats to jump over. however, my cat did slip through the bars and within 5 minutes of it being up as I caught him on the other side. I was able to remedy this with some household items (duct tape, card board, etc.) been working fine ever since. I'm pretty impressed with the build quality and ease of setting it up, and I thought the price was quite reasonable. I would recommend buying this for these reasons.

This gate is made of high quality materials and is very easy to use. I bought the gate to keep my dogs out of the living room and it working out great! I have a very small chiweenie and was worried about her getting through the openings between the bars but she is unable to as the bars are closer together than I originally thought. The price is well worth the value of this gate.

I have a two year old that gets into the fridge and we needed a tall gate that he couldn't climb over because he figured out how to open the fridge lock we bought and he climbed over the short gate that we had. I almost didn't buy this gate because of a few of the bad reviews, but I am so happy I did. Its not hard to install, it just take a little effort. I have plaster walls and it stays in just fine, so I would imagine putting it up in a wood framed doorway would be even better. Its easy enough to open with one hand and easy enough for my 5 year old to get through, but my two year old cannot figure it out-even after watching us do it.
