Very easy install, no damage to walls. Our opening is 42 inches at top and almost 41 inches at bottom including baseboards. It isn't perfectly straight especially if you make it tight. The gate\/door opening itself is 16 inches wide, not really big. We are happy with it.
When I received it I loved how it looked and that it was wood and tall and sturdy and easy to put together not like the other gates that you need to screw into the wall. The only problem is that the actual gate didn't open because there wasn't enough space at the bottom where when you pull the lever up the lock at the bottom didn't have enough room to swing thru...so I had to return the gate and settle for one that was harder to put together yet cheaper at $60 (the child safety gate). I really would have preferred to keep this gate because it is prettier but I would have had to cut the wood a little at the bottom for it to swing open properly and for $82 I think it should have worked perfectly.
...but not the fact that the gate is so tall! The gate is sturdy. It's easy to install; my teenager did ours. The doorway is narrow, but I--a plus-sized woman--can make it through with little trouble. The dogs stay out of the kitchen, and when I lock the little pet door, the cats stay out of the rest of the house. That's a plus!
Gate is very well built and easy to put together.\nI wished I had paid more attention as to its height, would have liked for it be be about a foot taller. But overall I am very happy with the gate and it looks very nice.

What our shoppers say:
Great basic gate, excellent value for size.
I needed a pet gate long enough to span a large entryway between my dining room and the computer room. This was by far the most economical gate for its size that I found. It's nothing fancy, but it's a nice, sturdy gate and serves it's purpose well. You do normally have to bolt it into the wall, but I was able to brace the ends securely against the entryway sides instead to avoid making holes.
I actually bought this as a baby gate to go around our glass entertainment center. It was the perfect height and the fact that it is adjustable was a key selling point. The fact it was freestanding was a great feature as well. I can't honestly say how it holds up with pets but my 9 month old has tried everything to get this thing out of her way with no luck. She has even pulled herself up on it a couple times and it hasn't tipped over so it seems pretty sturdy as well. It seemed a little pricey when I first purchased it but considering we are using it to keep her away from very expensive electronics it is worth every penny.
I am a 58 year old woman who knows nothing about installing anything. This was so easy to install and looks wonderful. They even include a strip of paper as a guide of where to mark and drill the four wholes. My opening is 58 3\/4 inches and it easily fit. My dog is a 12lb miniture shi\/poo and she cannot get through the openings. It took me less than an hour to install with no measuring. Wonderful product

What our shoppers say:
This is the gate I have been needing.
Once I placed my order the item shipped quicker than had expected. This gate is perfect. If you have ever had a dog that was able to get trough other gates this one will do the trick. It is tall enough so the dog will not be able to get over the gate and cannot squeeze through the spindles. This is a great buy for the money.
I ordered two of these gates to go in front if our two sets of stairs. I actually ordered this to keep my baby from the stairs. Our stairs are very difficult to fit with mounted baby gates. This was the perfect solution. It was also super easy to assemble.

Item broke within 2 days of mounting
We use this to keep our pets on our deck. On the second day after mounting one of the slats snapped where it criss-crosses with another. There was no undue pressure or torsion when this happened. Thank goodness for duct tape.
I bought this to keep my dogs out of certain areas, It's made real good The only reason I gave it a four star i wish it was a little bit shorter in height.. Overall It fits in with the decor instead looking ugly..

What our shoppers say:
Great for small to mid size dogs 7lbs or larger
This is an overall nice looking doggie gate, easy to put up, and it matched my paneling nicely as I live in a house built in 1970 lol. The advertizement said for small dogs, I have a toy poodle puppy who is 6 months old, 4 pounds, she easily fits between the last slat and the wall, this was a problem with the first dog gate we purchased, the slat to slat width was adequate to contain her, but the last slat and the door jam space is too large, so kinda negates the rest of the gate, so we were able to modify the extension and use it instead of the standard door width gate piece. The only problem now is the rubber ends that meet the door jam are gray and don't match, so, looks like we will be finding some paint or a wide sharpie to color those in.
