Product Tested By Lynette Gray – Patrick (4 years), Emma (2 Years) and Baby Rohan (9 Months)

Lynette Awarded Lindam Flexi Guard Safety Gate 3.5/5

Looked really good, the packaging showed a very clear picture of the gate in use, looked forward to trying it out. Loved the fact that it folded small and comes with a carry bag. Thought that it would be really good for taking to grandparents as wouldn’t take up too much room in the car. checked out website heaps of things on offer like safety gates, bottles and weaning products. You can download instructions and they have an area about new products. It is pretty easy to navigate and there are contact details as well. All the pictures are really clear but in some areas, like safety, I felt a bit overwhelmed by all the products that were shown. compact packaging that clearly demonstrated what the product was, however it doesn’t explain on the packaging that the gate cannot be opened, which I think could be misleading. I liked the carry bag. Found the instructions easy to follow, however my husband and I were a bit flummoxed by the fact that the product is called a flexi gate. We fitted the gate and then both tried to open it. We really thought that we had done something wrong, as there are no instructions about opening it provided. Eventually I called the customer careline to be told that the gate doesn’t actually open. It would have been helpful if this was outlined in the instructions. pretty easy to install, but if you over tighten the outside spindle it is really hard to close the handle to fix the gate in place. My 9 month old had a good try at getting around the gate, he gave it a good shake and pull but it didn’t budge. My 2 and 4 year olds tried as well. They couldn’t move it but the 4 year old quickly worked out how to release the handle, effectively removing the gate. This product is not a gate in the sense that you can open it and go through.. If you want to pass through you have to lift the handle, which can be done one handed, but then you must remove the gate, which means making it smaller which requires two hands, then you have to refit it when you are through, then repeat to return. Not easy if you are trying to get to the other side quickly to attend a screaming child or if you are carrying a child. They could not get through the gate safely because of the previously mentioned reasons about having to remove the gate and then refit it. If the 4 year old lifted the handle this loosened the gate and then it lost its safety properties as it wasn’t fitted tightly anymore. Quality is good and it is very sturdy but I don’t think that it is terribly practical. I don’t think the gate offers great value for money; well not if you are after a gate that allows you easy access from one side to the other. If you want something very temporary or something to permanently block an area off this is the gate for you. We are currently using ours to stop the baby playing with the TV and sky box. The product should be labeled as a barrier instead of a gate. I ended up ringing the Lindam help line, which was easy to use, just to verify the fact that the gate could not be opened. If they want it to be a gate it needs to have a hinged door that can be opened. If they could do it with this product then it would be excellent. I would not buy it as a gate. I am currently using it in front of my TV cabinet to stop the baby from playing with the sky box and DVD player. Because it is mesh the remote controls still work with it in place, but fitted in the alcove in front of the TV cabinet restricts the babies’ access.  I would definitely buy it to take when we visit people, as it folds small and has a carry bag. It is a good quality, sturdily made product but I would dispute it being called a gate. The use of the word gate infers something that opens and closes. I think that this product should be rebranded as a barrier, as it has to be removed to allow access to either side. Lynette Gray – Patrick (4 years), Emma (2 Years) and Baby Rohan (9 Months)

Adele Awarded Lindam Flexi Guard Safety Gate 3.6/5

The company has a good website, it is quick to search for items and quite informative. The packaging is fine – just a small box, no over packaging, with photos of product in use. It comes with a handy carry bag with strap to pack it away when you travel. You are provided with clear instructions, with simple pictures and not too many of them. Initially I found it tricky to assemble on my own, but with two pairs of hands it is no problem, now I can do it by myself in seconds. When you have it tightened correctly it stays put and there are no issues with it falling open. This ‘gate’ doesn’t open; to get through it you have to remove it every time, with a baby in your arms this is not very convenient. I have two older children ages 8 and 6 who could easily undo the whole gate with the quick release handle, but could not put it back into place. I liked the quality of the product; it felt strong and well made. You can easily adjust the width of the gate to fit different size openings, this was easy and very easy to take off and store away again. It could be made to open! Unfortunately I would not purchase this item, for a short period of time this would be ok to block off areas that are rarely used by others, but in real life most people will want to get to the other side of the gate and this is quite inconvenient as you have to remove the whole thing. Felt mislead by the name ‘flexiGATE’ to me a gate is something that opens, and that was what I expected, I think even to take it on holiday or to the grandparents house it would soon get on our nerves by not being able to open it, and my parents certainly wouldn’t be able to keep bending down to re-set it.

Emily Awarded The Lindam Flexi Guard Gate 3.8/5

It looks good and appears well made.  Website easy to navigate and lots of information on their products. The box looks a little outdated.   Instructions Clear and easy to understand.  Very easy to use once fitted to the size of the door frame and easy to adjust to fit various door frames.  Very secure.  Not easy to open as you need both hands to get the gate in the correct position before locking it. Seems well made and sturdy.   Yes, it’s good value for the price.  Easy to use and adjust, but you need both hands to do this. Very secure once fitted, and it looks as nice as a gate possibly could.  Emily Uskovic – Baby Tatiana 10 Months

I would definitely buy it to take when we visit people, as it folds small and has a carry bag. It is a good quality, sturdily made product and acts as good barrier.

How big is the Lindam Sure Shut Deco stair gate?

Dimensions: 4.7cm (D) x 76cm (W) x 73cm (H)

Weight: 4.6kg

The Lindam Sure Shut Deco stair gate is an instant attention-getter. It’s an on-trend combination of chunky, polished birch wood and dark painted metal.

This pressure-fit stair gate is more than just a thing of beauty though. It’s versatile and can be used in doorways and at the bottom of stairs. It can even be adapted for spindle banisters with a fixing kit (sold separately).

The Sure Shut Deco is slightly less robust than other entry-level Lindam stair gates, because the wood is more pliable than metal, but it makes up for this with an exceptionally easy-to-use open-and-close mechanism.

How easy is the Sure Shut Deco stair gate to assemble?

Lindam pressure-fit stair gates have a reputation for easy assembly, and the Sure Shut Deco is no different: it arrives in one piece and your only task is to screw in the four gate-adjusters, stick the four wall cups to the wall (using the sticky pads included) and tighten the bolts with the helpfully provided spanner. Even a DIY novice can crack this in five to 10 minutes, tops.

The instructions might be diagram-only but the process is intuitive enough to sail through. The company video will talk you through any sticking points.

Like most pressure-fit gates, the Sure Shut Deco is intended for doorways and the bottom of stairs; pressure-fits aren’t considered strong enough to be safe at the top of stairs, and can’t fit in wonky doorways because the pressure needs to be even at all points.

We’d advise you measure carefully before you place your order, and refer to the helpful Lindam graphic on its website to work out which configuration fits your space best. If the standard-size isn’t going to cut the mustard, the Sure Shut Deco fits Lindam’s universal extensions which come in three sizes (7cm, 14cm and 28cm) for an extra fee and can be paired in various combinations. Don’t forget to register your gate with Lindam within 30 days of purchase to secure its lifetime guarantee.

Once up, the stair gate takes the knocks of family life with little visible wear and tear. It’s wipe-clean and doesn’t show fingerprints – a toddler holy grail if ever there was one – and has been designed to remain safe and sturdy. At £50, it’s considerably cheaper than other gates at the luxury end of the market, but it’s stronger and more reliable than its competitors.

How does the Sure Shut Deco stair gate work?

The Sure Shut Deco is Lindam’s stylish contribution to the market – the only one of its pressure-fit gates to be made from a sleek combination of metal and birch wood. It’s not just a good-looker, though: it also benefits from a particularly simple open-and-close mechanism which is perfect for older siblings and for quick, easy access at night.

To open, squeeze two buttons and press down; to close, push the gate and the latch clicks into place by itself. Both can be done one-handed and without thought. Watch out for that closing mechanism – the gate can bounce back unless shut with a little force. We think swinging it with a little force many times a day over a long period of time might eventually lead to some deterioration in the fittings (see below).

Is the Sure Shut Deco stair gate safe?

This wood-and-metal gate is a little less robust than its completely metal counterparts. After a testing period in a heavy-traffic area, being opened or shut around 50 times a day, an adult was able to move it a couple of millimetres by shaking it.

Our tester found the bottom corner of the birch wood gate moved several centimetres out of alignment following weeks of heavy use in the ‘open both ways’ position. But we think it’s unlikely your toddler would be able to push the gate as hard as our tester did, and you can use the bottom lock to secure the gate completely if you’re concerned.

Despite those small concerns, on the whole, the Sure Shut Deco stair gate stays firm, and bears up incredibly well amid the slams and yells of family life. The same cannot be said for all the stair gates we tested: one broke after several weeks of similar pressures and had to be dismantled.

The bottom bar is a typical 3×2cm, so might pose a trip hazard in the first few days. But in all other ways, Lindam has gone out of its way to make this gate toddler-safe. An internal locking mechanism, covered hinges and no sharp edges mean you don’t have to worry about trapped fingers. There aren’t any dangerous gaps for little hands or feet.

How easy is the Sure Shut Deco stair gate to clean?

This good-looking gate should stay clean and smart without much maintenance, as the dark metal of the frame hides any smudges really well. The birch wood gate, of course, is more susceptible, but has been treated to be wipe-clean. At the end of the testing period, there were no visible fingerprints and the gate still looked brand new. In our stain-repelling tests, mud wiped off easily, and so did baby food; blackcurrant juice needed a scrub after it had dried on the wood, but didn’t leave a mark.

It’s not an easy task to remove the gate in order to vacuum – far too much effort for a Monday anyway – but vacuuming around it isn’t difficult.

Is the Sure Shut Deco good value for money?

At £50, this Lindam stair gate is considerably cheaper than gates positioned at the luxury end of the market, yet in looks we think it can hold its own with the best of them, even if it’s slightly less robust than some.

The Deco is exceptionally easy to assemble and use, and we think it will even add a touch of low-key elegance to your doorways – and whose doorways couldn’t do with some extra low-key elegance?

Available from Lindam’s website, Argos and Amazon. If ordered directly from Lindam, delivery is free.

bimiti Metal Foldable Safety Barrier

Pressure Fit Travel Stair Gates

Pressure fit stair gates are a good option to take with you when going on holiday. They are less versatile than the barrier safety gates but are smaller being only a gate so are easier to take with you. Because of their method of attachment which doesn’t require tools, they are easy to move from your home to a different house. The pressure fit element gives some flexibility so should fit a variety of different door sizes.

Below are some of the best ones available in 2023 that are also easy to take with you as a travel stair gate.

Lindam by Munchkin Sure Shut Pressure Fit Safety Gate

The Lindam Sure Shut Axis Pressure Fit Safety Gate is a really affordable option for a travel stair gate. The pressure fit mechanism on the stair gate makes it an ideal choice for travelling and can be used at home as well.

These safety gates make use of pressure and wall pads to fit snugly in doorways or narrow hallways, with no need to screw into the wall or doorframe, they can be taken with you when stopping at relatives or going on holiday. Each gate comes with full instructions to help you reposition the gate when needed and you can find a how to video (linked below) to make the task even more straightforward.

Since this type of stair gate has a supportive U-shaped frame for stability, you should never install it at the top of a stairway as the bottom bar might pose a trip hazard . The quick, one-handed release makes it suitable for busy areas as it only takes a quick press on the release button to open the gate. You can also set the gate to either swing both ways or to only open one way- useful for the bottom on the stairs.

The child safety gate is made of strong steel and fits standard gate fits openings of 76-82 cm with the option of extending it to 117 cm with the optional extensions that come in various sizes so should be perfect for all manor of doorways and openings.

If you know you need a wider fitting safety gate to take with you on your travels, this one from BabyDan is a really good option. The travel gate is wider than standard models and can be adjusted from 79.5 to 93.3 cm to fit into wider doorways or hallways.

Just remove it easily from wherever you have it in your house and pack it into the car. The baby gate has easy one handed opening and can be fixed to open one way or two way depending on your needs. 

This video from the Danish makers BabyDan shows the testing that their products undertake before being sold to parents.

Here’s some reviews from Amazon customers to help you decide:

“Easy to install , solid materials and easy to use , worth to buy”

“Once fitted, to stop our baby grandson entering, the kitchen it felt very secure. It has been in place about 4 months and works well. “

“Does not budge. Gave us peace of mind knowing our little one cannot get up or down the stairs.”

Stair railing safety net for toddlers

So this product obviously isn’t a safety gate, but it is something that will come in really useful when you’re staying in a different house. It’s also really portable so a good purchase for those ‘just in case’ occasions. Basically the net can be used to make gaps between railings safe for your baby or toddler.

In some houses (particularly older ones built before more stringent building control), the gaps between stair rods will be wide enough for a baby or toddler to fall through. This could lead to an awful accident if your child happens to slip through when not closely attended. A good solution is to buy this mesh net which can be fixed using ties to the banisters. The mesh is strong enough to stop your child from falling through the gaps.

Customers on Amazon have said:

” This product is easy to fit and covers the landing banister struts easily. It is a bit long but double it up and it still works. “

” Pretty sturdy for a net, exactly what we needed to keep our little one from falling through the banisters. It comes with strings and cable ties and is a good size “

Why do you need a travel stair gate?

Even if you don’t use safety gates when you’re at home, there are still lots of good reasons to invest in a travel stair gate, especially if you’re away from home with your mobile baby or toddler quite often.

Even going to visit friends or family could pose problems if you’re not able to stop access to certain rooms such as the bathroom or kitchen. If you’re child is still in a cot at home but will be sleeping in a bed when you travel then you need to consider getting a travel stair gate so they can’t go wandering out of their room overnight.

If you’re staying in a holiday cottage or villa, you can’t be sure of knowing what the layout is or how safe rooms will be. To give you peace of mind, a travel stair gate will fit easily into a suitcase and should block off access to most dangers.

As the safety gate can be easily moved, you can have it blocking the kitchen during the day and then switch it to their room for overnight.

Best Travel Stair Gate Round-Up

Even when travelling you have no excuse not to have a baby gate with you. Pick the best travel stair gate for your needs- whether you want a barrier so you can use it as a playpen or fireguard as well as a stair gate or if you need a pressure fit safety gate to fit stairs or doorways.

Packing a stair safety net is also a good option- really light and small to fit in your luggage but gives you a number of options in keeping your baby or toddler safe if banisters or balcony spindles are wider spaced than you would be comfortable with.
