KidCo Gate Installation Kit For Any Brand Gates Reviews
| 42 of 45 people found the following review helpful  Waste of money, you're better off going to the hardware store, By This review is from: KidCo Gate Installation Kit For Any Brand Gates (Baby Product) Don't waste your money. This review is mostly geared to those of you considering buying this kit for mounting a gate on a hollow wall WITH A BASEBOARD. I can't comment on the supplies or instructions for the other segments of the kit. If you have hollow walls and your stair area doesn't have a baseboard then I don't think you would need this kit at all - just a pair of butterfly togglebolts to securely fasten the brackets of the gate.I purchased this kit thinking I needed it for installing the G20 Kidco Safeway gate in my hollow-walled-baseboarded stairwell. First of all, it's this teeny tiny box about 1"x2" and about 24" long and it arrived in a ginormous box that was almost bigger than the box that the gate itself arrived in. Secondly, it contains more than what you need to mount the gate on a hollow wall - so you're paying $10 for an assortment of hardware that you will realy only need 1/3 of since the kit works for mounting on hollow wall, wrought iron, as well as...

Of course, if you are a handy-person you probably have all of these parts right in your basement- these are common items (screws, wood, zip ties, wall anchors, etc).The kit allowed me to install the KidCo gates at the top and bottom of my stairs along a wall with moulding and a decorative wood banister. I did have to drill holes in the wall and banister to make the gate as secure as possible. My only complaint is that the wood came in a natural wood color, but with a greenish tint which did not match my house. I painted the wood white before i mounted the gates. There is nothing profound about this kit, but I do recommend this kit to anyone who...

The theory is that it creates a plumb surfaced onto which to mount the gate. It did not seem particularly stable, and, ironically the zip ties scratched up our bannister (the whole point of this purchase was to protect our bannister from the ill effects of having kids). Anyway, a much safer and secure bannister installation kit is Kidco Gate Installation Kit which clamps on the bannister. |

Editorial Review
This handy gate installation kit makes it possible to mount a metal KidCo Safety Gate on a variety of different structures and surfaces around the house. The kit is well equipped and comes with everything you will need (except tools) to attach a KidCo Safety Gate to wood banisters, wrought iron banisters, and hollow walls. The step-by-step instructions are easy to follow and include pictures and illustrations that will come in handy during installation. Depending on the type of surface the gate will be mounted on, adult installers can choose to install a gate with either wood screws or plastic ties. Along with wood screws, a wing nut, washer, toggle bolt, and plastic ties, the kit includes a 33-inch-long piece of pine wood and a pine wood spacer for installations on walls with molding at the base. Mounting a KidCo Safety Gate on a wrought iron banister requires two gate installation kits for each side of the gate. Additional tools, including a drill and screwdriver, are required to install a gate properly. --Chris Burns
