We are proud grandparents of a baby girl, just under a year old. She has just started walking and with the family visiting for two weeks over Christmas, we wanted to baby-proof our staircase top and bottom. We’ve been using our Safeway gates for a week now and are delighted with them. The price was attractive, the gates are sturdy and installation was relatively quick. My only issue with installation was the stop pins that prevent the gate from swinging backwards over the stairs. These are very small and easily dropped or misplaced. The gate fit around our baseboards and railing trim without difficulty. We like the solid click you hear when pressing down on the gate spring to engage the locking mechanism. The gates blend nicely with our stairway bannister, which has black steel pickets. The mounting brackets are relatively unobtrusive and allow the gates to be removed and stored when not needed, which for us is most of the time. Good job KidCo!
