4.0 out of 5 stars Great gate, but read my review before buying., March 24, 2007

This review is from: Richell 94134 One-Touch 150 Pet Gate with Autumn Matte Finish (Misc.)

I just bought this gate because I needed something semi-permanent in my living room to keep my new puppy from running all over the house. My first gate looked very cheap and kept falling down because it didn't have a door and I just propped it against the wall. I needed a gate with a door.

I checked at least 3 different sites besides Amazon for a "rich" looking gate WITH a door. I landed on this one.

PROS:
1.) Looks nice and elegant
2.) The door swings open both ways (very nice)
3.) Brown / tan (much nicer than the plastic grey colors like Grayco)
4.) Solid design (wood and steel, nice)
5.) The gate locks at the top and the bottom at the same time, making it impossible for my puppy to push his way through at the bottom.
6.) Lock is nicely positioned (but see #5 in the CONS below).

CONS:
1.) ONLY the door is wood, ALL of the gate material is metal. Would be nicer is the entire gate was the same wood and the hardware was metal.
2.) The door does not swing 180 degrees open. The door only opens to about 110 degrees so because it's not flush with the gate, my dog or kids sometimes run into it.
3.) The color of the gate does not match the door. It's close and it compliments it, but it's not a match.
4.) The rubber feet that touch the wall (I'm not talking about the adjuster knobs, because they are brown) to hold it in place against the wall are grey. At this price, they should be brown to match the gate. I don't know how the company missed this one.
5.) The handle to open the gate only works in "baby-proof" mode. I which you could deactivate the thumb button and make it so that you only have to lift up on the handle to open. Not the thumb & lift up. Just a convenience thing. It's sometimes a little tricky when both your handles are full with grocery bags.
6.) The screws are shiny silver. They should have painted them brown as well. (Richell, it your reading this, you could have anodized them dark brown like some many other screws, that way they're less noticeable.)
7.) THIS IS THE BIGGY **IMPORTANT** This gate only works in certain segments. Unless you're really handy with tools and a welding torch you must pay attention to this. This gate will ONLY fit on the following openings, NO EXCEPTIONS:
35" to 37" with no side gates (just door)
47" to 49" with one side gate attached
59" to 61" with both side gates attached
When I bought this gate, I didn't understand this and I was lucky that my opening is 47". If it was only 45" I would have had to return this gate. There is no way around this.

Overall this is a quality gate, but just know what you're getting.

I would buy this gate again if I had to make this choice all over.

I gave this gate 4 stars instead of 5 because only the door was wood. If the gates and door were wood, I would have given it 5 stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Impressive look that won't ruin your interor design, April 10, 2007

This review is from: Richell 94134 One-Touch 150 Pet Gate with Autumn Matte Finish (Misc.)

I bought 2 of these gates plus the additional extensions. My hall way openings are in the "blackout" width dimensions. I was able to VERY easily saw off some of the rails on the extensions and place the included plastic caps over the ends to hide all trace of my handy work.

I have had lots of compliments from visitors to my home about the gates.

If you have a dog that will jump and put paws and claws on these gates they will easily damage the wood work. I'd hate to think what a chewer could do to them.

I was also somewhat disappointed that the extenders were metal and not wood. Definitely there are some improvements that could be made but overall this is the best out there for the moment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Pet Gate Ever, June 10, 2007

I purchased this pet gate to keep my two large dogs confined to the kitchen area. This gate is extremely well constucted, easy to install, compliments my decor and easy to operate. My eight month old Boxer jumps up on it often to see in other rooms but it doesn't budge. It's tall enough that he can't jump over it too and that's a problem I had with the plastic gates. I feel confident when I leave home that when I return he will still be in the kitchen. A great comfort to me since he suffers separation anxiety and has been known to chew and destroy things in my absence. I have never been sorry I spent the extra money and purchased this gate.
