KidCo Center Gateway Extension Kit

KidCo Center Gateway Extension Kit Review


See more picture


I purchased this gate to contain a Yorkshire Terrier puppy. Yes, the gate fits a 36 inch door just fine, but a very small puppy can walk right through the extra space beside the gate opening. I needed the kit to close that gap. A child couldn't get through the slighter larger opening that is created between the gate and the wall, but a very small puppy can walk right through.
I like very much how the gate and extension function. I just needed the extension kit.

Customer Reviews

Great Product....HORRIBLE Company! - Krystal Colon -
"DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY! I purchased a gate for (shipping and everything) and was the wrong size. I wanted to exchange it for the next size up, but was told that I would have to pay the original price, a 15% restocking fee and pay to ship it back. All of this would cost more than the gate itself. The rep. was very rude and unwilling to satisfy a devoted customer. Never again."


Not much of an extention - SOGWAP - Somewhere in the USA
I have to admit that this is a good quality as are their gates, but they don't give you much in the way of extention unless you only have to fill just an inch to maybe two and a half. The price was not great for what you get. There are only two bars and it leaves a big gap (my guess is if you have 40 or more inches). I measured my space and it's 42 inches. It should have been fine, but it leaves a big enough gap to fit a small dog. Their manual says 37 1/4"-42 3/4" - One extension kit / 42 5/8"-48 1/8" - Two extension kits. There's no reason why I should have a gap as big as I do, but I do. Also the tension rod doesn't work as well with the extention, as the tension rod with the gate alone. In summary, their extension recommendation measurements are not really that accurate and with this extention, the tension is not that sturdy especially when the gate is left open. In that position, it seems that the tension rod could easily slide off the wall. You can't really make it much tighter. If you want to spend the extra I would get two if your space is more than 40 inches. That will most likely also make the tension tighter. I gave it three stars for quality because it is heavy duty and good quality. They might need to be a bit more accurate about measurements or maybe add an extra rod for the measurements they give.
