Richell Freestanding Gate, HL
This gate is perfect for a large doorway or hallway. It is high enough to keep out my dogs and designed to be very stable even in the largest of openings. It looks good and one side can swing to allow for human entry. I would buy it again in heartbeat. I wish I had know about them sooner. Worth the money to protect my carpets.

This is a beautiful gate and does what we need to corral the Basset Hounds but for the price - couldn't they have made a latch or quick release of some sort?! We put it up over night and while we're at work but in the evening I have to use a screwdriver to let us all in the TV room!

This gate worked like a charm. Set up took minutes at the most. I used it to divide my apartment's kitchen from the living room, an opening approximately 69 inches wide. Best of all, the gate requires no drilling/hammering into walls, ideal for apartment dwellers (i.e., it won't affect your security deposit!). Also, the gate, despite instructions telling you not to do so, was relatively easy to stride over. (I'm approximately 5'8"...if you're shorter, though, you may want to find another way around). All in all, well worth the price.

We had high hopes for this gate and for the most part it is wonderful. Our dog is 60lbs and does not jump, however he was able to push the end of it and get around it (only when we weren't where he could see us). We solved that problem by putting a stool or chair on the end that he would push. Now, even without the stool/chair, he leaves it alone. Okay, so he's not the smartest dog on the block, but we love him!
Also, we still step over it, although you can move it aside easily. We're just so used to stepping over the last fixed gate that we are in the habit. This one is quite tall, though, so you have to have long legs!
My recommendation is that it is perfect for small dogs, but hit or miss for success with the dogs over 30-40lbs.

We've been looking for a gate to put in front of our gas fireplace that didn't require drilling another hole into our wall. There is actually only one other gate made for the hearth that we've found but it's big, clunky and requires drilling. We found this "pet gate" and found that it works perfectly for our baby proofing needs. It's adjustable and as far as we can tell, the metal part of the gate never gets really hot. Would recommand this for anyone with small kids as it definitely gives you a peace of mind during the winter months when the fireplace is on.
