Description of KidCo Configure Gate
The ConfigureGate 3-Piece Set allows you to configure the gate yourself, to fit odd-shaped rooms and non-standard doorways. The three 24-inch interlocking pieces easily adjust in 10-degree increments to fit most any space. The walk-through gate swings in either direction and features a convenient one-hand release. Constructed of sturdy tubular steel with a white non-toxic coating. Measures 29.5 inches high.This large, custom-designed gate lets babies and toddlers roam free in a large section of the home, while still protecting them from dangerous or unsupervised areas. The set comes with three interlocking sections, each one measuring 29 inches high and 24 inches long. The idea is to lock the sections together in a bendable configuration that fits an area of your home (additional sections are available). In order for the gate to be secure, it must be attached to wall-mount fixtures (included). Be prepared for about a half-hour of setup time. Keep in mind that this is not a gate that simply folds up accordion-style. It may be easier to keep the gate assembled than to constantly unlock the hinges and fold the sections together. Fortunately, it comes with an adult-access, walk-through gate, so it won't impede the traffic flow of grownups. For ages 6 to 36 months. Comes with a one-year limited warranty. --Hannah Reynolds

The ConfigureGate comes with three 24-inch, interlocking panels, which can be angled in 10-degree increments in any configuration you like. Each of the end panels includes wall-mounting features, so you can secure the gate across irregularly shaped spaces from wall to wall. The center panel includes a gate that opens in either direction with a one-handed release for easy parental access. You can purchase extensions (sold separately), available in 8-inch and 24-inch sizes, to fence off wider areas.
High Quality and Thoughtful Craftsmanship
With the KidCo ConfigureGate, form follows function. It meets or exceeds US Child Safety Standards, providing the maximum protection for your child, and with its Scandinavian-inspired design, the gate's clean-lined, minimalist style will blend handsomely into any décor. Like all KidCo gates, the ConfigureGate is constructed with fine, high-quality materials, including thicker virgin steel and certified non-toxic paint. The European factories are ISO 9000 and ISO 14001 certified.
Baby Products Reviews of KidCo Configure Gate
Customer Review: Clean lines / easy opening / best gate for hard-to-fit areas
Summary: 5 Stars
We now have a total of 4 ConfigureGates to restrict our precocious 2 1/2 year old from (or to) various parts of the house. All the other gates we've tried have been replaced by ConfigureGates. The gate has clean lines, is white (not gray or brown like so many others), and cleans easily. The opening mechanism is easy, and can be done one-handed even by my mom, who has arthritis. The installation is simple - I can install it in about 10 minutes once I've actually found the drill in the garage! If you want to take down a gate for some reason (carpet cleaning, a party, moving furniture), the gate detaches from the wall in 60 seconds and you can fold it up to store it out of the way. All that remains mounted to the wall is a thin piece of plastic which is barely noticeable. Once removed permanently, that plastic piece leaves three drill holes in the wall which can be filled and repainted easily.
Three of our gates are in our upstairs hallway and loft area - the "second wall" in those areas is just a stairway railing, which created a special challenge. We've found that by installing one side into the real wall, we can use velcro ties to attach the other side to the spindles of the railing. We even have our gate at the top of the stair attached this way and it is very sturdy.
These gates have stood up to our 65 lb dogs running into them, jumping up to put their paws on top, and our toddler yanking on them with all her might. Extremely strong and well constructed.
On the downside, the gate is a standard 30" high - our daughter has learned how to climb over the gate (with or without a stepstool) if she really wants to. Of course, this is the same kid who learned to climb out of her crib at 15 months, so she would be climbing over any gate. Keeping the gates up is a physical reminder to her not to go into certain areas, however. The other negative is that the gate panel cannot be repositioned unless you buy extension pieces. When you buy the basic set, the gate panel is in the middle and it cannot be moved to the end panel unless you want to shorten the gate from 3 panels to 2 panels. We've managed to live with this, although it would be nice to have the gate on the end sometimes.
Overall, I would highly recommend this gate for anyone who needs to block off more than just a single doorway.
