This is a pretty sturdy gate but getting it to hold in place is not good. There is a bar in the middle that you adjust the width of the gate to get it between two walls. But if your space doesn't fit the notches on the bar, it is too loose and a pet that jumps on it can make it fall. It would have been better if the pressure pads were attached by say 2-3 inch screws that you could use to adjust it even more by tightening or loosing the screw. Found such padded screws at hardware store but I got too small a size (1 1/2 inch). Need to get a bigger size. Works good if you put a kitchen chair on each side to hold it up and use the pressure against the wall. I don't recommend it for animals that would jump on it or try to force it down unless you find a wall to permanently attach/hook it to the wall some how. Say a hinge on one side an a hook/clip on the other wall side.

the gate itself is very high well made and i especially like that its wire...the last one i had several years ago look the same but shorter but not made with wire but plastic so that when hauled it out of garage +most of the plastic had rotted off.i got this becuase i got a new kitten and wanted to separate himand the older menapausal cranky cat for a while. well little cat loves a challenge and she hefted her 9 week 2 pound body up and over the fence like a marine in basic training.
aslo it is a hassle when i have to go into room where gate is and have to move it. there ar gates i've seem that have a pass thru door. Had i known height wasn't going to matter i would have opted for one of those

Best Deals for Wood Frame with Coated Wire Pet Gate
Pet containing items are expensive. I know this, and every pet owner knows this. If your pet container doesn't work, the results are distastrous. I especially know this, after my dog learned how to jump out his $120 pen only two weeks after purchasing it. I come home to find my apartment a mess. I can only imagine how many pet owners can relate. Well, the good news is that this extra-high dog gate does work, and it works great. The thing is deceitfully strong, and with the wire mesh somewhat flexible, the dog can pull at it fiercely with having minimal effect on removing the wood frame from its place. The remaining star goes out to the desire of having the frame be made of metal or even plastic. The wood seems fine, but I think it will wear out sooner than any other material choice.As a note, I would get the *extra-tall* gate seen below-I have an 8-lb Pomeranian and he could easily figure out how to climb over the shorter version of this gate despite being so low to the ground.
I was a little confused how to operate the pressure bar, but after 20 minutes of experimenting with it, my dog had no chance of opening it since it was so tough. Though a small dog, he is fierce and I put him as a great litmus test.
So for you pet owners worried about purchasing such an important item online, sight-unseen, have no fear: this is a safe buy. Your dog will be safely enclosed and your house will be in tact when coming home.
