KidCo Y Spindle (2 Pack)

KidCo Y Spindle (2 Pack) Review

It's hard to give a piece of metal anything but 5 stars... what would have helped is a little guidance about how they work and how many you need. Let me spell this out for you, 1 Y-spindle is not enough for 1 side, it is literally 1 Y-spindle. I wondered why anyone might want just 1... well this is what you need to know.

The gate has 4 friction points and comes with flat disks that give good friction to walls or anything else that is flat. So ask yourself, is my spindle rectangular on the bottom 2 inches as it enters the floor/stairs? If rectangular on the bottom, but round at the top, then you'll need 1 Y-spindle for each spindle you are placing the gate between. If your spindle is round top-to-bottom, then you'll need to Y-spindles per side.

I hope this helps someone... I also have some advice about the gate, but I'm putting that with the gate reviews.

Great Gate Accessory! - Alexia Davie - Houston, TX
We didn't want to put holes in the wall to install a gate and we have round banisters at the stairs. These were a great solution. The pressure mounted gate fits perfectly between the wall and the banister.
