Loved in the USA

The Regalo Easy Step 38.5-Inch Wide Walk Thru Baby Gate is a solid option for parents looking to secure doorways and hallways for young children or pets. One of its main strengths is its adjustable width, accommodating openings from 29 to 38.5 inches, which makes it versatile for various spaces. The included 6-inch extension kit enhances its adaptability, a plus for non-standard openings.

Constructed from durable metal, this gate stands 30 inches tall, which is a suitable height for keeping toddlers aged 6-24 months safe, while also being strong enough for pets. The walk-through door feature adds convenience, allowing adults to pass through easily without removing the gate. It also meets safety standards set by JPMA and ASTM, providing reliability.

Installation is fairly straightforward, especially with the pressure mount kit and wall cups provided, though careful adherence to instructions is necessary. A drawback to note is that this gate should not be used at the top of stairs due to safety concerns, which may limit its usability in some households. Additionally, the maximum use of three extensions could pose a challenge if you have a wider opening. While it's portable to some extent, it is not designed for frequent relocation, which might be a downside for families looking for a highly mobile barrier.

The Regalo Easy Step Extra Tall Walk Thru Baby Gate is designed specifically for parents looking to secure areas for infants and toddlers, especially at the top of stairs. Standing at 36 inches tall, it provides a significant barrier for curious little ones. The gate can expand to fit openings between 29 to 36.5 inches, and it comes with a 4-inch extension kit, making it versatile for different spaces, like doorways and hallways.

One of the key strengths of this gate is its durable all-steel construction, which offers reliability when it comes to safety. It meets JPMA and ASTM safety standards, ensuring that it is a tested product. The walk-through door feature adds convenience for parents, allowing easy passage without the hassle of removing the gate completely. Additionally, the pressure mount design means it is relatively easy to install, although it's important to use wall cups for extra security.

There are a few drawbacks to consider. While the installation process is straightforward, some users may find that it requires additional effort to ensure it’s properly secured. Finally, this gate is aimed at children aged 6-24 months, which means it may not be suitable for older toddlers who could potentially climb over it.

The Regalo Easy Step Baby Gate is a sturdy metal gate designed mainly for doorways, hallways, and the bottom of stairs rather than the top of stairs. It uses a pressure-mount system, which means it can be installed without drilling, making setup easier and less damaging to walls. The gate stands 30 inches tall, a good height to prevent toddlers from climbing over, and it adjusts to fit openings between 29 and 38.5 inches wide, with an included 6-inch extension kit for wider spaces. However, it doesn't fit openings between 34 and 35 inches without an extra 4-inch extension, so measuring your space carefully is important.

The gate features a walk-through door with multiple safety locks, which makes passing through convenient for adults while keeping little ones secure. It also swings in one direction, which is common but worth noting depending on your space layout. Installation includes wall cups for extra stability, but because it is pressure-mounted, it is not recommended for use at the top of stairs where extra security is critical to prevent falls.

Many users appreciate its durable steel build and the fact that it meets recognized safety standards, making it a solid choice for homes with babies or small pets. While easy to install and remove for storage, pressure-mounted gates generally don’t offer the same level of security as hardware-mounted gates when placed at stair tops. This gate is best suited for parents needing a reliable, adjustable gate for areas other than the top of stairs.
