Description of KidCo Elongate
Here's an innovative gate that's designed to fit the wide-open spaces of your home. Wall-mounted for safety, the Elongate has a walk-through door that can be installed at either end. A release allows the door to swing open in either direction. Constructed of sturdy, tubular steel with a non-toxic plastic coating. Measures 29.5 inches high and fits openings from 45" to 60" wide.Baby Products Reviews of KidCo Elongate
Customer Review: BEWARE -- Gate has serious flaws
Summary: 1 Stars
To whomever might be considering purchasing this gate, beware it has several fairly significant design flaws.

However, after taking the time to unpack and install it, it has several serious flaws.
1) The device assumes you have no moulding at the baseboards (except potentially 1/4" shoe moulding. To be stable, it requires the use of a plastic 'foot' stablizer, that helps anchor the hinge side of the gate. If you have moulding, you'd either have to screw the mounts directly through the moulding (which ruins the moulding), or attempt to level the gate above the moulding. Unfortunately, this results in the gate not being able to use the stablizer foot, and results in a gate that sways excessively (again, I needed something with multiple extensions).
2) The opening for the gate is very, very small.
3) 1 side of the gate (the side that swings) mounts directly to the wall. This is a problem if you're even a fraction of an inch off with the included paper templates to guide where to mount the brackets.
I don't know how the merchant is going to be when I attempt to return this useless gate...so my comments (for
