Product Description:
Rarely does a mom or dad make it through a day without thinking they could use an extra set of hands. So First Years designed the next best thing -- a safety gate that doesn't require any hands at all! But even though it's simple for an adult to just press on the pedal and walk through, it's too difficult for a baby. The gate fits all standard doorways 29" to 34" wide, and, with use of the Gate Extension Kit (sold separately) will also fit other openings up to 44" wide. The pressure-mounted design won't damage walls or doorways. An audible click lets you know the gate has locked.
Amazon.com Product Description:
Because of its simple "knee-knocker" mechanism, this Hands Free Gate can do exactly what the name implies: be opened without having to use your hands. Any parent occupied with little ones and all of their necessities will quickly recognize this as a huge benefit. To operate, simply press on the pedal with your toes and then bump the knee plate with your knee. Closing is just a nudge in the opposite direction; you will hear a click when the latch has caught, offering peace of mind that it's secure again.
 | | The convenient foot pedal is easy for adults, but difficult for children, to open. | The pedal, knee plate, and hinges are designed so the gate can swing open from either direction. Even smarter is that the gate is purposely designed as easy-to-open for an adult, yet difficult for children. The gate's vertical bars curb curious toddlers from trying to climb over, are spaced to help prevent painful accidents, and provide ample visibility through to the other side.
 | | Adjustable pressure mounts don't require screws and won't mark up your walls. | Able to fit in standard doorframes (29" to 34" wide), the all-metal safety gate is a pressure-mount device. Just twist the adjustable bolts at each of the four corners to get a proper, secure fit in your doorways. (If you have wider than standard doors, The First Years sells extension kits separately that can accommodate up to 44-inch wide openings.) It should be noted that this safety gate can be a little unsteady when used at the outer limits of its range, so you may want to consider an extension kit even if using in a standard doorway.
Before you buy, there are two things to be aware of. One, the actual opening for parents, kids, and/or pets to walk through is only about 18 inches wide. Two, if you want to use this in a doorway and be able to close the door, the foot pedal sticks out too far to allow this. For use with children up to 24 months.

We've used cheap collapsable barriers before, and they are fiddly and after time, damage the wall. We would put them on when the kids were crawling about. But now we have a new baby and the older kids can't hurdle the old barrier like we can, so we had to get one with a door. I like the fact that we aren't popping it on and off like the old one and it will just stay in place for the duration.
The older kids (twins) are 3 and a half and the lightest one (girl) weighs about 36 pounds. She can ... Read More

We love this gate, it is so easy to install. I just got rid of our superyard gate. That was not very good to use because you have to climb in and out of the gate. If you have an active child like mine, you will have to go in and out a lot. Several times i trip over it and it's not fun when you bang your legs into the gate. It is plastic but still it hurts! Since we just change to this hands free gate, we are so relieved. It's worth every penny!

We love that this gate is hands free as it is in a frequently used passage to the laundry room, kitchen, garage, and bathroom. We use it with two extensions in a hallway to keep our young dog from visiting all parts of the house. I was excited that I could adjust it so that both my tiny 5 year old daughter and beefy 2 year old son could get through the gate. Unfortunately, when they stand on the foot pedal, they often put their hand on the top for support, right on top of the release mechanism. ... Read More

We have many gates in our house and this one by far is the best one. It was very easy to install and use. My daughter loves to swing the gate closed and she hasn't got hurt once, it is a very safe gate for little fingers. Very handy to open with your foot when your hands our full.

Before buying this gate, we had an ugly green carpet that apparently the dog did not respect either. The dog decided it must have looked like the lawn outside and began using it the same way. We were constantly on our hands and knees cleaning, shampooing, and scrubbing this thing. We decided to buy new carpet and did not want the problems to start again. We bought this gate and installed it on our stairs so that she would be unable to get to the carpet while we were not home. We were concerned ... Read More
