Amazing baby gate - looks

Lauren B.

Amazing baby gate - looks great in our space, good quality, and easy to retract, very functional as we have a large dog. The instructions are clear and it was easy to install. The customer service team is also amazing as I originally ordered the wrong size. Highly recommend!

Subtle appearance, easy to install.

Rachael D.

Subtle appearance, easy to install. If hardwood recommend drilling larger pilot holes.

We purchased this gate to

Georgina C.

We purchased this gate to contain our crawling baby in the living room when required, but to keep the space open as much as possible. This gate was really easy to install & simple to use. The latch works well.

Excellent Safety Gate!

Sheila C.

The Easy Fit Retractable Baby Gate is a smart, space-saving solution for families who need a reliable barrier without bulky hardware getting in the way. Looks great on our front porch and super happy with it's functionality!

Easy to install and love

Jai M.

Easy to install and love the fun colours of the vibe colourway. Fits across our wide archway well and is super out of the way when not in use.

Easy to install, works well

Annaliese F.

Easy to install, works well as a room divider or visual barrier. Also great for smaller spaces where a swinging gate would be an obstacle. Somehow the bottom is looser than the top, but my baby doesn't seem keen to go under it. Overall, I recommend if you have a smaller space or a baby that is not ...

We went for the retractable

Bridie W.

We went for the retractable gate as it is much better than having a swinging section or bottom rails on stairs. We have no wall on side of the stairs which limited our choice of gates. There are thick skirting boards at the bottom. This was resolved by using thick timber boards to fill the gap and...

I’m pleased with this product.

Allison S.

I’m pleased with this product. It’s great to separate the dining area from the lounge room when needed without there being a gate that you have to open and close all the time. Impressed that it spans so far. I was worried about it being too flimsy if my 1 year old pushed on it but it holds up well. ...

We chose the extra-tall version

Yijun G.

We chose the extra-tall version of this baby gate and it has been absolutely perfect for our home. We have a large Maine Coon cat, and this is the first gate that she genuinely cannot jump over — which was our biggest concern when choosing a gate. The height gives us great peace of mind, not only f...

Fits perfectly in an awkward

Michael M.

Fits perfectly in an awkward gap that is not exactly right angled. Nice colour too.

Easy to install and the

Blake C.

Easy to install and the instructions are simple to follow. Operation of the gate is straight forward and the mechanism pulls the gate tight for you so there is no slack.

Good but not one handed opening

Petra

It’s a nice gate and looks so much better than what we had, I like that we can have it open when not in use or take it off the wall, so it is aesthetically pleasing. However I struggle to open it with one hand, I think if the handle was in the middle then there would be greater control, I have to pu...

Thank you

Race

The gates work great and the customer service was amazing even after having the gate for 2 years. We moved houses and lost pieces to install the gate. Customer service was helpful, quick, and even helped us find old pieces that were no longer made. I never wrote reviews, but this is how all companie...

Great product, easy to install,

Michael F.

Great product, easy to install, works great and best of all looks fantastic

I got the colourful design,

Jessica R.

I got the colourful design, it’s only vibrant on one side and the other is dull and has the warning sticker on it, and it’s a soft rubbery material like non-slip mats. If you have skirding boards and a small dog i wouldn’t recommend, my chihuahua can fit underneith. There are spacers included but i ...

  • Comparison of Perma and Dreambaby retractable gates

  • Experience with Summer Infant and Perma retractable gates

    User describes switching from Summer Infant to Perma: 'We had a summer infant one and HATED it. The lock broke within 4 months. We’ve since upgraded to the Perma brand and it is much better. It feels so much sturdier and is easier to lock and unlock.' However, notes concern that toddler might put fingers in mesh when retracting.

  • Request for non-pressure-mounted gate recommendations for stairs

    OP wants a gate for top of stairs, not pressure-mounted. Community responses recommend hardware-mounted gates and note that retractable gates needing bottom rail might not be ideal for stairs. Perma mentioned as an option but not specifically reviewed.

  • Personal review of Perma retractable gate

    User reports: 'We have the perma retractable gate. Highly recommended. Our 85lb dog runs into it and it’s held up well. It’s super easy to use one handed and you can set it to be auto lock or just freely open and close.' Also notes it's expensive but worth it for quality.
