Overview
This is a pressure-mounted wood safety gate from Evenflo's Position & Lock line in the Farmhouse finish, despite being filed under dog gates. It uses a latch closure and stands 23 inches tall, sized for doorways and stair bottoms in a home with young kids or pets.
Listed here as a dog gate, the product data (Evenflo brand, baby age range, kids target species) points to a child safety gate that a pet owner could repurpose for a dog. Pressure mounting means no drilling but also less holding strength than a hardware-mounted gate at the top of stairs.
- Farmhouse Collection wood finish
- 26"W x 23"H gate panel
- Latch closure
- 1 gate included, 3 lb weight
Who it's for
Best for households needing a no-drill gate for a doorway or hallway, whether the goal is containing a toddler or a dog. Not the safest choice for the top of open stairs, where pressure-mounted gates are generally discouraged.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- No drilling required for installation
- Latch closure allows one-handed opening
- Wood construction suits farmhouse decor
- Pressure mount is not recommended at stair tops
- Warranty limited to 90 days
- Single fixed 23 inch height, no extension listed
Performance notes
The gate holds its position through spring-loaded pressure against the door frame, so setup requires no wall damage but the fit depends on frame width and squareness. The latch closure lets an adult open and pass through one-handed while keeping it out of reach for small hands or paws.
