Disappointed
Product picture is misleading. Very cheap, it falls apart with or without the screw.

Wouldn't Do That Again
These baby gates are an ok temporary solution. My main issue is that the "no-drill pressure mount system" is worse than drilling. The pressure system uses adhesive wall pads that peel drywall when removing them. The pads do not "help protect the walls from damage." Drilling would leave a smaller hole to patch than without drilling.

Dissapointed
Flimsy and not worth the money. I’m almost nervous to put it up because I think it’s almost a hazard. My toddler could take that down one handed.

Spend more money get something better
Very flimsy and if you have small dogs you have to put it on the baseboard which unfortunately due to the design of this product makes it harder to remove and reinstall the gate (if someone can’t just step over it).

This one isn't it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have three children, and three dogs, so one could say I'm a gate expert. I was really excited about this Doorway 42W series Baby and Dog Gate because it could be used for indoor or outdoor. I loved the idea that the material wouldn't rust in weather, but to be honest I'm not so sure how sturdy and secure the material is. It feels like cheap plastic that over time will bend and crack. The instructions that came with the gate are horrible and not very user friendly. The binding posts that the directions speak of are the two screws that are in the middle of the top and bottom gate rails. I like that it can conform to many different lengths and doorways. I also like that it clips into mounts to help it be secure and to help save the walls from a lot of damage. Over all the idea of the gate is nice, the price point is great but if I were picking out baby gates for a friend or even myself I wouldn't buy this one, I would spend just a bit more money and buy something I felt was sturdier and that will last longer than I foresee this one withstanding.

Good gate once you get it built
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good gate once you get it built but it was really annoying to actually put together. Now that we have it up I’m happy with it and it looks nice enough. Would still buy again because it gets the job done.

Simple but effective gate
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This baby gate is super simple to use, but still effective. The wall mounts protect the walls so you don’t have to drill any holes or scratch them up. They make the gate easy to put up and take down— no messing with a lever across the middle like the gates we grew up with! It’s lightweight so even grandma can use it.

Great baby and dog gate!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pleasantly surprised with this baby and dog gate from Ingenuity. The gate is made of good quality and is made from galvanized steel frame. It’s lightweight and I love the matte black color. It’s got a very minimalist, simple look and I blends into my decor quite well. Love how durable and secure this gate is. I was able to mount this to my door frame without the use of drills or other tools. It was very easy to install and I love how I didn’t care any damage to my doorway or walls. You can expand the frame of gate to fit as close to the width of your opening as you can. Then you twist the side latches to extend the gate further and essentially get your tight and secure fit. I appreciate how the gate does include hardware in the event you do want to mount the gate. Overall a great basic gate that is stable, secure and nice looking. Highly recommend this baby and dog gate!

Consider buying another baby gate
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was not impressed by this baby gate one bit. It felt very cheap quality and do not reccomend for parents or caregivers. My 2 year old was able to push on it and break the plastic criss cross patterned part. She is not that big, nor rough or tough and just broke so easily we ended up throwing it away after less than a week.

Very lightweight
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This gate is very lightweight. Some I feel could hurt you if they fell. This one is very light and sturdy at the same time. Very simple to put together. Works well. Very easy to wipe down also. Love the color.

great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This gate is sturdy, well-built, and offers a sense of security that is invaluable for families with young children and pets. Installation was straightforward, with clear instructions and all the necessary hardware included. What I love most is its versatility—it fits perfectly in a variety of doorway widths, and the adjustable feature ensures a snug fit without damaging walls. The gate opens and closes smoothly, and the locking mechanism is easy for adults to use while remaining secure enough to deter little ones and curious pets. The design is sleek and unobtrusive, blending well with home decor while providing peace of mind. It’s clear that a lot of thought went into making this gate functional and reliable. If you’re looking for a safe, stylish, and durable barrier for your home, this gate is a fantastic choice! Highly recommend it!
