Falling down the stairs can be a serious hazard for an infant or toddler. These children are just learning to walk and navigate around their surroundings, so it’s important to keep child safety a priority at this time. Properly installed high-quality safety gates can help eliminate the possibility of falls.
The beauty of a safety gate is that it’s a temporary install. They can be installed at the doorway or stairway. Adults can easily pass through but children will not be able to. Pressure mounted safety gates work well in doorways between rooms
There is a safety gate that works well for stairways. This is a hardware-mounted safety gate. It mounts with screws but it’s still easily removable when it is no longer necessary.
Make sure that whatever gate you use meets the standards and compliance suggested. Such gates will have a sticker on the packaging or on the unit itself. It’s also important to consider railings and make sure the railings are also childproof. Children love to climb on things and this is when railings and handrails also become a concern. A stairway with four or more risers should have a continuous handrail.
