When you choose the right baby gates to childproof, your home becomes safer for young children. You can install baby gates to block off stairwells, rooms that are off-limits, or even just areas of a given space. With practice, baby gate installation is quick and easy, so you can install and remove the gates regularly if you don't need them up all the time, such as might be the case for friends, relatives, and grandparents' homes.
However, many baby gates are attractive enough in design that you will be glad to simply leave them installed all the time. Others are so subtle in appearance that you'll hardly notice them when they're open or closed. We've included a variety of options to suit individual needs and preferences.
An additional tip: If you are going to leave your baby gates installed at all times, consider putting a night light next to the gates, or even topping them in a glow-in-the-dark tape. And leave such safety measures in place until you have internalized the gates as a regular fixture of the home.
