We already have 2 stairgates in our house but one of them has broken and although my son is now 2 1/2 years old I really feel that we still need one by our living room door as it leads into the kitchen and I want to keep my son safe especially when I am cooking.
I had a look online for stairgates and the Lindam Easy Fit Plus gate looked the best price, as we already have a Lindam gate I know that the quality of them is very good.
Packaging
The stairgate comes in a large square flat brown box , you will find on the box a picture of the stairgate with the product details that comes in various languages.
Inside the box is a white metal stairgate which has a blue handle , a manual, a leaflet so you can order spare parts ,a box with :-
The manual is a 7 page leaflet which has instructions and pictures on how to fit the stairgate.
This stairgate is a pressure fit so no need for drilling or screws but it does come with screws and wall caps if you wish to use them especially on the stairs.
The great thing about this stairgate is all you need to do is push the screw adjuster rings into the holes at each corner of the gate then just place the gate where you want it to go tighten up the screw adjusters on the tops and bottoms of the gate and it is ready to be used.
To open the gate
The manual says you can do this with one hand! You press the 2 buttons and lift the lever in one go I have tried doing this with one hand and yes it can be done but it is very tricky when you are trying to carry stuff such as dishes..
To close the gate
You line up the gate with the frame and push the handle down until it clicks.
Other Features
The gate can open both ways
It will fit door openings between 75 and 81cm - you can buy extensions so that it can fit up to 137cm
It has a double locking mechanism
What do I think? This stairgate is very easy to fit and is very very secure even when my son is trying his hardest to try and open it. It says on the box that it is suitable up till the child is 2 years old I think this is because once they get to a certain age they will try and climb the stairgate we currently don`t have this problem but will obviously keep an eye on things.
