Study, looks great and solid

BLUF: (bottom line above) Amazing gate, well built and very strong. Metal does not bend easily. I'm a 300 lb guy and I couldn't bend it. and i tried. It took my wife less than 10 minutes to install. She took some black duct tape and wrapped the included metal pins around it to fit snugly in the plastic holes. This greatly improved the feel and removed the slight hit. I would highly recommend it to anyone and would buy it again with confidence. Background: Ok, I write a lot of reviews here for customers like you and me, and reading these reviews made me wonder if I should buy a gate. Finally I could do something with my own hands. Well, when he arrived, that thought changed. The sheer weight of the box made me feel it was solid. It was easy to place the bumper pads into the holes formed and they fitted freely. I was afraid it would tremble or rattle because of it, but it doesn't. When applying glue to the fixing dowels and when attaching the gate. It was easy to push the whole screw out just enough to line up the double sided tape. Then I pulled the gate to the side and drilled four screws to attach it securely to the wall. After a few seconds she slipped the bumpers over the caps and began tightening the mounting nut. It took the most time to align and straighten it so it was perfectly straight. Then the top screws need to be unscrewed a little more to reduce the distance to the contact of the top latch. No problem, a swipe of your finger is enough. Honestly, she made this project in less than 10 minutes. Now our puppies aren't allowed to roam all over the house, and when our grandkids come, don't worry about them running to the back of the house. Good stuff, thanks evenflo.
