We installed inside for a pet, works really well.
Excellent outcome for our furry
Excellent outcome for our furry family Muzzy on our decking … well done Perm Child Safety Gates … now she can see out and we know she is safe on our decking … thank you Mitchell you were very helpful excellent service outstanding support and outcome ☺️
Super easy to install, looks
Super easy to install, looks great and the fabric is strong enough to keep two large dogs out. Better quality than I expected. So glad we got this instead of a metal gate!
Perfect for our awkward stairway
Perfect for our awkward stairway where a traditional pressure mounted metal gate wouldn't of worked. Seems durable to last the frequent opening and closing of main thoroughfare. The locking pin feature is a must to prevent our child trying to lift the gate up. Included mounting spacers is very convenient.
Fabulous. Just what I need
Fabulous. Just what I need as a grandmother with little ones who come to visit. Love that retractable baby gate is inconspicuous when they are not around
We purchased the 2m wide
We purchased the 2m wide retractable gate for our living room, to contain our crawling baby when required. We wanted to keep the space open as much as possible and hence why we chose the retractable gate over the standard solid gates. Installation was easy, and the gate is very easy to use. Would re...
2m baby gate was the
2m baby gate was the only gate we could find to fit across the landing of our stairs! The gate does have a slight crinkle, but looks neat and tidy! Shipping was fast, and couldn’t be faulted.
Most amazing gate ever! We
Most amazing gate ever! We have 3 different sizes throughout our house and love them!
Very happy with our gate,
Very happy with our gate, fits perfectly in our archway. Glad I went the taller size. Keeps our little boy out of trouble but nice and neat in our little house. We have a very small dog and she managed to get through but the website says it’s not rated for a dog of her size.
We have a really awkward
We have a really awkward space that we needed secured for our 1 year old and this was the perfect fit! My only complaint is that if you don’t pull it out far enough it stops so you have to take it all the way back and then start again and pull it out again! Can be quite frustrating if trying to sec...
Using to keep 3 kids
Using to keep 3 kids under 5 out of the kitchen, made meal prep and using oven much less stressful. Quick delivery, quality product, easy install, less than 10mins (drill hole template 👌)
Bought this gate to section
Bought this gate to section off my lounge room as I do Family Daycare at home. I didn’t want the usual baby gates, I wanted something that could fold away or use minimal space. Amazing product, so easy to use and install very happy with the product and turned up In the mail within a week of ordering...
Fabulous. Just what I wanted
Fabulous. Just what I wanted and needed to keep one of my dogs from running around too much while recovering from a ruptured cruciate ligament. Thank you
Customer service
Didn’t fit my stairs. So I tried to return it when I got back into the states from our vacation and they wouldn’t let us return it cause it’s 7 days past 30 days. And nonetheless it’s still in the boxes. My husband realized it wouldn’t work.
This retractable baby gate is
This retractable baby gate is sleek and practical. It retracts smoothly, locks securely, and was a breeze to install. Toddler to scale.
The bottom portion of the
The bottom portion of the screen is not as taunt as the top part which can allow a small dog to pass through.
We purchased the baby gate
We purchased the baby gate moreso for our dogs than children! But regardless of its use, it's doing a fantastic job! It's a great sleek design and looks really good in the space. It's a clean and tidy setup and the fabric makes it look more elegant than the steel bar options!
It works as described &
It works as described & does the job.
This is a decent product,
This is a decent product, a bit fiddly to open and close but it's great as a flexible option for our odd layout. Also is quite discreet when open.
Not Great
Installed as directed. Tension is not tight enough along bottom Golden retriever puppy gets underneath and into room we tried blocking off I bought the product due to the good reviews Wish I had gone with regular gate now
Love the look and simple
Love the look and simple setup for adding two new gates to our kitchen and laundry areas. We used to have the old bar swing ones and these are a lot more modern and less dangerous. A good height for me to use one-handed.
Pretty easy to set up
Pretty easy to set up with clear instructions and works well but can sometimes be a little tricky to line up the gate to close
Amazing product! We chose these
Amazing product! We chose these baby gates initially because they fit wide hallways much better than the standard baby gate. We initially bought 2 and then went back for a 3rd one recently. They are great. I can open and close 1 handed and you can lock them so the kids don't pull down on the m...
Now what I expected
The fabric is not what I thought it would be, it's much stiffer and less forgiving than I would have liked. It's not a very easy "one-handed" manuever to replace the gate on the pins. I'm trying to keep a cat out a space and she's much faster than I am at getting the gate secured. Hoping it gets eas...
The gate is the perfect
The gate is the perfect size for our space and looks lovely and so easy to use and when not in use we open it up and forget its there.
Gate is nice and easy
Gate is nice and easy to put up however, the quality of screws provided was terrible and they snapped upon drilling meaning we had to go buy additional screws
It’s a great gate and
It’s a great gate and fits its purpose for my needs over all, the length of 2 metres is what I needed. My only negative comment is that once you have pressed the top button, you can open the gate while it’s still locked at the other side, this is due to it just being a lift up rather than needing to...
Great deal
The three pack was a great deal to keep our dogs contained on the deck when we are away
Amazing Quality!
I operate a family day care service so I needed 2 retractable baby gates that were high enough for the kids not to climb over and still strong enough to last a fair while.So far they are amazing and it even makes the area still look nice and tidy, and at the end of the day I can just retract them an...
Awesome gate
Struggled to find a baby gate that would fit the 1.8m space we needed it for. This gate meets our needs and is also great in that it is out of the way when not in use.

Does the retractable mesh tend to sag or lose tension after repeated use or months of installation (do reviewers report this problem)?
Reviewers do not report a widespread problem with the mesh sagging — this model averages 4.6★ across 57 reviews and most customers note the mesh stays taut and works as intended. The gate uses manual tensioning so you can tighten it if it loosens, and it carries a 2‑year warranty for defects.

What is the width (thickness and projection) of the retracted cassette when the gate is fully rolled up — does it significantly narrow the doorway or create a noticeable bump against the wall?
We don’t publish a single “cassette thickness” spec, but the installation manual and template show the cassette is low‑profile and the product is designed as a no‑trip, low‑bump solution. The manual calls for at least 20 mm (3/4”) clearance from the installation guide to the opening edge and to mount the gate a minimum 2 cm (0.8”) back from an edge (spacers are 5 mm each), so it should not significantly narrow a doorway or create a large protruding bump. For a precise check in a tight frame, print the 100% installation template from the manual and hold it against your wall/door to confirm fit. [1][2][3]

Can this gate be mounted to round/newel stair posts or banister spindles, and are any specific post adapters available or required for that installation?
Yes — this gate can be mounted to round/newel stair posts or banister spindles using Perma’s banister adapters. We offer the Extra Tall Banister Adapter Kit (works with hardware- and pressure-mounted gates and fits square or round banisters) and a Pressure-Mounted Banister Adaptors 2-pack; the installation manual also notes spacers/longer screws may be required and that the gate must be fixed to a strong, even surface. [1][2][3]

Are the included exterior-mounting screws and anchors rust/corrosion resistant (e.g., stainless or coated) for long-term outdoor use on porches/decks?
We don’t specify that the included screws or anchors are stainless or specially coated for long‑term outdoor use — the product page and instruction manual list wall plugs, anchors and screws but do not state a corrosion‑resistant finish, and our spare/ mounting set lists materials as “Steel” (not “stainless”). [1][2][3] For porch/deck installations we recommend swapping the supplied fasteners for stainless or exterior‑grade coated screws/anchors to avoid rust over time.

How easy is the one-handed push/twist/release + pull operation in real life—can most adults open and close it comfortably while holding a child or carrying items?
We built this gate for true one‑handed use: a two‑step push/twist/release then pull to extend, with manual tensioning you can tighten or loosen for a firmer or easier pull. In real life most adults operate it comfortably while holding a child or carrying items — reviewers also call the one‑handed action “easy” — but we recommend practicing the motion once or twice before using it with a child in your arms.

Is the mesh or cassette serviceable/replaceable if damaged (can I buy replacement mesh or parts from the brand)?
We sell spare parts for the Ultimate Retractable Gate — catch mounts, wall‑mount kits, spacers, extensions and other hardware are available through our Spare Parts section. [1][2] We don’t list a standalone replacement mesh/cassette as a standard spare on the site; availability of a mesh or full cassette replacement can vary by SKU, so send us your gate’s SKU (on the gate tag) and photos and we’ll confirm whether a mesh/cassette can be supplied for your model.

What is the actual clearance/height of the 'no‑trip' base (thickness above floor) — is it low enough for walkers, wheelchairs, or small rolling toys to pass without catching?
This gate is designed with a “no‑trip” base and the installation manual instructs you to align the gate’s “Floor” side level with the floor so the barrier sits as close to the ground as possible; the manual also notes each included spacer = 5 mm (3/16”). [2] The manufacturer does not publish a precise millimetre/inch clearance above the floor, so we can’t guarantee an exact gap for every walker, wheelchair caster or rolling toy — please print the included installation template or hold the gate to your floor to confirm clearance before final mounting.

How resistant is the mesh to pets (chewing, clawing, or pushing) in real use—do pet owners report pets damaging or forcing the gate open?
We use a 290 gsm PVC‑coated polyester (UV‑resistant) mesh and rate this gate for pets 10–40 lb; manual tensioning plus the 3‑way lock give good resistance to pushing. In our 57-review sample (4.6★ avg) shoppers who used it for pets report it works well and there are no recurring reports of pets chewing through or forcing the gate open. That said, very determined chewers or pets heavier than the 10–40 lb recommendation can damage the mesh or mounts, so choose a more heavy‑duty barrier for aggressive or large animals.
