ABOUT STAIR GATES
Stair gates are fitted to the tops of flights of stairs for child safety. They may be constructed of timber or steel, and are normally fitted with auto locking catches, so that a child cannot open the gate. Some of the steel designs can be fixed by pressure against the walls, so that no holes need to be drilled.
The leading UK suppliers of stair gates, listed below the panel of sponsored links, have comprehensive and informative websites, with information on materials for stair gates, types of stair gate, and installation and maintenance of stair gates.
