New Ingenuity The Thruway 52W Series Pet and Baby Retractable Gate with Tuck Away Mesh, 52" Wide, 30" Tall (Black)
The Ingenuity Thruway 52W Series is a retractable mesh safety gate designed to block doorways, hallways, and wide openings up to 52 inches wide and 30 inches tall for babies and pets. It features an auto-lock mechanism and a tuck-away design that retracts the mesh into a compact holder when not in use, and includes a hardware kit for wall mounting (installation requires drilling and may be challenging based on user feedback). The gate is made of woven mesh fabric with metal support posts, and users report the mesh may not withstand heavy force from large dogs or determined children.

Installation and durability concerns for Thruway gate
I almost went for the Ingenuity 52” retractable gate but was put off by reviews about the mesh not being strong enough and installation being a nightmare. Saw comments about the mesh ripping with dogs or rough kids. Also, the hardware mount means you're drilling into walls and if you mess up, you have big holes to patch.

Positive retractable design but tough setup
We have the Ingenuity Thruway retractable gate. I love that it tucks away but installation was a pain. The instructions weren't great and it took a few tries to get the screws aligned right. Once it's up, it's solid and the auto-lock is nice. But definitely not a quick install.
