H Retractable Baby Gate (Gray) is a hardware-mounted mesh gate for indoor or outdoor use, designed to block off stairs, doorways, and high-traffic areas for infants (6–24 months) and small to medium pets (10–40 lbs). It features a retractable mesh panel, a 3-way locking mechanism for one-handed operation, and durable UV- and stain-resistant woven material meeting ASTM/EN safety standards. This floor model has minor cosmetic scuffs and may have imperfect packaging, but remains fully functional; some users note that the latch screws can wear over time but the gate continues to hold securely.","url":"https://kidsy.co/products/71-in-w-x-41-in-h-indoor-outdoor-retractable-baby-gate-gray","brand":"Perma Child Safety","condition":"used","product_category":"Baby & Toddler > Baby Safety > Baby & Pet Gates","material":"ABS, PVC, Nylon, Polyester, PVC Coated Mesh","length":"71 inches","width":"71 inches","height":"41 inches","dimensions_unit":"in","item_weight_unit":"lb","age_group":"infant","image_url":"https://kidsy.co/cdn/shop/files/new-perma-child-safety-71-in-w-x-41-in-h-indooroutdoor-retractable-baby-gate-gray-9226198.jpg?v=1764007231&width=823","additional_image_urls":[],"images":[{"id":"img-1783486438043-0","url":"https://kidsy.co/cdn/shop/files/new-perma-child-safety-71-in-w-x-41-in-h-indooroutdoor-retractable-baby-gate-gray-9226198.jpg?v=1764007231&width=823","width":716,"height":716,"alt_text":"Perma Child Safety 71 in.
