This safety gate is perfect for stairs when you need to mount one side on the wall and one side on a banister, but it can also be mounted in a hallway when the walls don?t line up. Hinge and latch side hardware can be mounted on an angled surface. Easy one-hand adult operation quick-release hardware allows the gate to be easily removed when not needed. Made from furniture-grade hardwood and strong tubular steel, the unique material design will accent any home decor while providing safety.
