Has anyone purchased this as a "replacement" for the gate that came with their playyard?

I bought a playyard that did not have a gate, so I purchased this to both enlarge and add a gate. We have been using this gate for months (maybe close to a year) and it works perfectly. Actually, I have two playyard sets and this gate/extension set-up as a very large playyard. This whole set-up has worked perfectly to keep the baby (she is now 2) away from the dog. While she is not confined to this playyard as much, she has to be in there when we need to leave the room for a minute or two and then we can easily open the gate (probably 5 times a day) to let her back out. So, the gate has seen much use and is still working great.

Yes. It works well for the grandchildren ( toddlers ) but does need 2 hands to open. ( probably my arthritis )

To be honest, it has been a while since we used this gate and it is in storage right now. I remember it being very versatile and we were very happy with it. We did end up buying more sections to make the area inside the gate larger. Sorry, don't know if I really helped you. I would recommend though! :-)

I don't know if they are available separately, but this gate does not come with them.

I've had this gate installed for about 4 years with my twins and have never had a problem. You may have to tighten the bolts from time to time but that should be about it. I love mine, even years later!

Yes! It sure does! We bought it for our neighborhood gate. It works really good and has better range than the ones we got from our HOA

We did not screw it on even though we have a wood bannister. Bought a wooden plank that is about 1.5 inch thick and used industrial plastic ties to secure it to the bannister. The little metal clamps that come with the gate are screwed onto that. Plank and ties came from Home Depot.

I don't think it came with extensions but I highly recommend the gate. We have it on our deck and we feel comfortable knowing the kids can't open it.

Kacie, just off the top of my head, I really don't know or know if they have come out with wider gates. My opening is 34 3/4" with one extension. If you put a extension on both sides, maybe or if you added 2x4's on each side to pick up some slack you might be able to get the gate to work, but then you reach a point where the gate becomes a little weak, the whole gate. The better you can use the gate with out to much add ons (extensions) the more sturdy and stronger the gate. It is a great gate, maybe the mfg has made wider gates, would hurt to ask, like I say it is a great doggie gate and would work great for a child gate. bryan Kacie, just off the top of my head, I really don't know or know if they have come out with wider gates.

Not that I know of nor can see how it could be done...see how long the gate will expand from the manufacturer description. There is a range of expansion.

I have not but I can tell you that I would not recomend it. We use it inside. Personally, and from experience with other items made of similar material, that the plastic will sunn rott and the metal will rust. First thing that will go if you use it outside is the plastic and from there the gate is useless. If it is shaded and protected from the moisture it might last a while but not for a permanate fixture. Hope this helps

Hi there. I actually ended up getting rid of the gate and ordered a retractable mesh gate for our dogs. It was easy to manipulate but we did not like the look of it when open. The retractable ones are for our two pooches just enough of an impasse. Good luck.

Yes and it is very easy to install. There is however nothing like a genuine part when it comes to performance! You have to treat it gently when using. This past week I have been using my tailgate A LOT. There were a few times that I was unable to open the gate at all and it took a lot of cajoling and patience to get it to work. For the price it is a quick fix but if you rely on opening and closing a lot, I would go for something more heavy duty. I will need to replace this again and probably soon. I will try a different one second time around.

My husband said he'd omit the pin and replace it with a nut and bolt. We have not had anyone do this to our gate, yet! Good luck!

I ended up using a gate I bought from home depot. I just used some screws to install it and was cheap and easy.

Yes it does. It works great though. We have been very happy with our gates.

it does not work...I made the mistake of not getting the correct extension for the auto close gate. Also, even with the matching gate and extension piece, i had to reinforce at the joint with a C channel as it became loose

My husband used the screws that came with the gates and we have had no problems! He does recommend, however that you drill the pilot holes for the screws so as not to split any of your woodwork! These are by far the BEST gates that I have ever had! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them!
