Designed as an expandable 6-panel safety gate this metal-framed pet barrier stretches from 34.5 to 154 in to enclose stairways doorways fireplaces and play zones. The 270 degree rotating hinges allow straight L-shaped or U-shaped configurations while a self-closing locking door stays open at 90 degrees for easy passage. Astm and Cpsia compliant construction supports children ages 1 to 3 and folds flat for storage when not in use.
