About this deal

Somewhat frustratingly, the gate doesn’t pop out when you want to give the house a clean. Instead, the whole gate has to be removed from the wall cups using the spanner to loosen the gate adjusters. We suggest keeping the gate in place and vacuuming around it if you can. Is the Easy Fit Plus Deluxe stair gate good value for money? Wall mounted gates or wall-fix safety gate or stairgate are usually installed by drilling into the surrounding walls The Lindam by Munchkin Easy Fit Plus Deluxe Tall Stair Gate is taller than standard safety gates, measuring 91.44 cm from the floor to the top of the gate. Designed with families of children and pets in mind, it is the perfect solution for keeping your home safe, calm and stress free for everyone. It is assembled and ready to use and can be installed in 5 minutes. All tools are provided and the 4 point pressure fit frame means that it does not require drilling to the wall, whilst still providing ultimate strength when in position for complete peace of mind. The Easy Fit Plus Deluxe is made from wipe-clean painted metal. The pressure-fitted stair gate isn’t available in any darker colour combinations but we were impressed with how little dirt the white fitting attracted during the testing period.

Available to extend the Easy Fit Plus Deluxe, Sure Shut Axis, Sure Shut Porte and Sure Shut Orto Safety Gates It may not be the best-looking stair gate but for ease of installation, intuitive daily use and sheer, stubborn immovability, the Easy Fit Plus Deluxe gets top marks.It is recommended to use a wall-mounted gate on any stairway opening, top or bottom, and a pressure-fit or removable style for doorways. Pressure-fit gates and gates with a step-over bar shouldn't ever be used at the top of stairs. The downside of pressure-fit gates is the need for a bottom bar, which can be a minor trip hazard for bleary-eyed parents. It is important that you measure the opening of where you want to install your safety gate correctly. Always measure from the narrowest point, typically skirting to skirting The Lindam 7cm Stair Gate Extension works with pressure-fit safety gates and can be combined to span a variety of opening sizes up to 117cm wide. A customised fit is always better than a standard one, especially when it comes to baby-proofing. If you need to extend your Lindam pressure fit safety gate, you can do so with standard universal gate extensions available in a variety of sizes to give you the perfect fit. These extensions work with pressure-fit safety gates and can be combined to span a variety of opening sizes up to 117cm wide. If putting an extension either side, then one side must be 7cm. Available in both silver and white, they come in 7cm, 14cm and 28cm sizes. Once in place, it’s almost immovable – no matter how many children might slam or swing on it. The open-and-close mechanisms are straightforward and can be mastered by older and younger children, while remaining impenetrable to your adventurous toddler.

As far as your adventurous toddler goes though, you can rest easy. There are no detachable or insecure pieces, so no choking hazards; all the hinges are covered in rounded plastic fittings, making it impossible to pinch a finger; and the ultra-secure wall mounts mean this gate will stand firm against anything thrown at it – deliberately or accidentally. How easy is the Easy Fit Plus Deluxe stair gate to clean? Unlike other gates, the handle is designed for single-hand use and isn’t ridiculously stiff, although sometimes our tester found herself using two hands because the squeeze-and-lift motion is a slightly unnatural one.The bottom bar of the Easy Fit Plus Deluxe is fairly typical for safety gates at 3×2cm – quite likely to result in a swearing-under-your-breath toe stubbing or two, while you get used to it. It’s also a good idea to watch out for the uncovered bottom corner of the gate, as the turning circle is slightly wider than average and it’s easy to catch a bare foot. Baby safety experts Lindam first started creating products over 25 years ago. With a passion to design products that help new parents through all the different stages of their child's life, Lindam are a brand you can trust to provide top quality baby safety solutions. Our tester really rated this stair gate and scored it the highest out of all the others. The gate was tested in her busy family home and placed a 'high traffic' area of the house for six weeks, where it was opened or closed at least 40 times a day. During the testing period, she found it be really secure and stable in that environment.

A safety gate’s key task is to prevent a toddler or young child going somewhere they shouldn’t. In most cases, it’s to stop a toddler going up or down a flight of stairs that they could, if not monitored, fall down, or into a room where they could seriously hurt themselves. Minimum width: 76cm; maximum width: 82cm (up to 117cm with a combination of Lindam universal extensions, sold separately) When it comes to products like this, safety is of course paramount. While we don't test in a lab, we think testing by real families in real homes provides an invaluable true-to-life insight into the quality of a product. Pressure-mounted or pressure fit gate or stairgate require no drilling and rely on pressure to stay in place

How does the Easy Fit Plus Deluxe stair gate work?

Accredited with an M&B Gold award (the ultimate recognition of excellence in the competitive Baby Safety industry) and acquired by much-loved baby brand, Munchkin, Lindam are a fail-safe option for all parents. Once up, the stair gate is with you for the long haul. After a testing period of several weeks in a high-traffic area (being opened or closed more than 50 times a day by none-too-gentle older siblings), an adult was unable to shake the gate out of position by more than a millimetre or so. Your rioting toddler will have no chance. This pressure fit safety gate fits openings of 76 cm to 82 cm. There are no extensions compatible with this safety gate. It is important that you measure the opening of where you want to install your safety gate correctly. Always measure from the narrowest point, typically skirting to skirting.

Lindam stair gates have been an industry-leader for decades. You may not know this, but in 2010 Lindam Ltd became part of the Munchkin family, so no matter which logo you see on your chosen safety gate, you can rest assured it has come from the same high specification production line, and benefits from all the same care, technology and innovation.

Baby & Child Safety & Stair Gates

Munchkin, the company that owns Lindam, told us that consumer safety is paramount to its values as a company and it is dedicated to providing safe, top-quality products. It says that the Lindam Sure Shut Orto complies with all applicable standards including EN1930. As a pressure-fit gate, the Easy Fit Plus Deluxe is designed for doorways and the bottom of stairs (and can be adapted for spindle banisters with the separate Staircase Fixing Kit). Pressure gates aren’t intended for the top of stairs, as they’re not considered strong enough to be safe up there, and they don’t work in uneven doorways, as the pressure can’t be applied evenly at all points.
