FAQs

Yes, the Bettacare Extra Wide Hallway Pet Gate uses a pressure-fit system, meaning no drilling or permanent fixtures are required.

The gate itself fits openings from 97cm to 103cm. With optional extensions, it can be extended to a maximum width of 152.6cm.

Is this gate safe for children as well as pets?

Yes, the gate has passed the EN1930:2011 Safety Standard, making it suitable for use with small children as well as pets.

How do I clean the gate?

You can clean the gate using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents.

Can the gate be opened with one hand?

Yes, it features an ergonomic handle designed for easy one-handed opening and closing.

Does the gate automatically close?

No, the gate has a manual closing system. It remains open until you choose to close it, and then it locks via the double locking mechanism.

What colors are available?

This specific model is black. The Bettacare Extra Wide Hallway Pet Gate is also available in grey and white.

Troubleshooting

Gate is wobbly or not secure

Tighten the pressure-fit knobs on both sides. Ensure the gate is positioned vertically and evenly against the wall or frame.

Locking mechanism is stiff or difficult to use

Check for any obstructions or debris in the locking mechanism. Gently operate the handle back and forth to loosen it. Ensure the gate is properly aligned within the opening.

Gate does not fit the opening

Double-check the width of your opening. If it is within the 97cm-103cm range, re-adjust the pressure knobs. If the opening is wider than 103cm, you will need to purchase and install optional extensions.

Scuff marks on walls from pressure knobs

While the pressure-fit design aims to avoid damage, some minor marks may occur. Consider using wall protector cups (sold separately) designed for pressure-fit gates if this is a concern.
