1. Hauck Open N Stop 2 9cm White
Practical, manually closing door & stair gate set
As soon as your child is mobile, safety gates on stairs and doors are essential. The gate can be opened in both directions with one hand and closes safely and reliably.
Whether at home, at the grandparents' or on holiday, the clamp gate can be securely attached and removed without leaving any residue.
The Open N Stop 2 set including 9 cm extension is not only suitable for passageways with a width of 84-89 cm, but can also be extended up to 110 cm with the separately available extensions of 9 cm or 21 cm. With separate hauck Y-spindles, the gate can also be mounted on banisters with round rails.
The following dimensions are possible with separate extensions:
75-80 cm = child gate without extension
84 - 89 cm = children's gate + 9 cm extension
93 - 98 cm = child gate + 9 cm + 9 cm extensions
96 - 101 cm = child gate + 21 cm extension
105 - 110 cm = child gate + 9 cm + 21 cm extensions
117 - 122 cm = children's gate + 21 cm + 21 cm extensions
Note: This safety gate is self-adjusting. This means that the initial misalignment/gap in the area of the locking mechanism is cancelled out by tightening the four fixing screws.
Pro
- Simple assembly
- Swing door can be opened on both sides
- Easy handling
Contra
- Extensions a little wobbly, but seem to be secure
