There are several types of safety gates, each suited to different needs and locations:
Pressure-mounted gates: Easy to install and remove, ideal for temporary use or less hazardous areas. Hardware-mounted gates: Require screws to secure the gate to the wall or door frame, providing a more permanent and secure solution, especially for the top of stairs. Retractable gates: Made of mesh, these gates can be rolled up when not in use, offering a versatile and space-saving option. Auto-close gates: These gates automatically close and lock after being opened, ensuring continuous safety without relying on parents to remember to close them.
