Product Information
Full details
The Bettacare Extra Tall Screw Fit Metal Dog Gate is designed for pet owners and parents seeking a robust, hardware-mounted safety barrier for stairways and high-traffic doorways. Offering a secure 100cm tall metal frame, this gate provides maximum stability and eliminates the hazard of a bottom threshold bar, making it ideal for preventing trips at the top of stairs. While its screw-fit installation ensures long-term durability and strength, it requires permanent mounting into the wall or door frame, which may not be suitable for those looking for temporary or tension-only solutions.

FAQs
Does this gate come with extensions?
This specific model covers a width range of 110cm to 120cm. Please ensure your opening falls within this range before purchasing.
Can I install this gate at the top of the stairs?
Yes, because it is hardware-mounted and features a no-trip-bar design, it is specifically recommended for use at the top of stairs.
What is the total height of the gate?
The gate stands 100cm tall.
Does the gate open in both directions?
Yes, it swings in both directions, but it includes an optional one-way restrictor if you prefer it to only open in one direction.
Is this gate suitable for outdoor use?
This gate is designed for indoor use. Outdoor exposure may lead to rust or degradation of the mounting hardware.
Does it require drilling into the wall?
Yes, this is a screw-fit (hardware-mounted) gate, which requires drilling for a secure and permanent installation.
Troubleshooting
Gate does not latch properly.
Verify that the gate is mounted perfectly level. Adjust the mounting screws to realign the latch side with the catch mechanism.
Gate feels loose or wobbles.
Check that all mounting screws are securely fastened to a solid surface. If mounted to drywall, ensure wall anchors were used or that screws are hitting a wall stud.
Difficulty opening the gate.
Ensure the one-way restrictor is set to the desired direction. If the gate is stiff, check for debris in the hinge pins and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installing the Bettacare gate involves a direct screw-in method. You must measure your opening precisely to ensure it falls within the 110cm to 120cm range before beginning installation. Use a level during mounting to ensure the latch mechanism aligns perfectly, as a misaligned gate may fail to lock correctly.
Care Instructions:
- Periodically inspect all screws and mounting hardware to ensure they remain tight.
- Wipe the metal frame clean with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid abrasive chemicals that might damage the paint finish.
- Check the hinges and locking pins for any accumulation of dust or pet hair to ensure smooth operation.
