When Avery started crawling, we bought a baby gate at the top of the basement stairs. At that time sliding safety gate, I was looking less ugly solution corresponding to the opening. Then we realized that not only compression of the doors is not the best choice for the top of the stairs, but our stair width (36 ") was at the upper limit of the correction of the door. This means there was a lot of time exposed wire, enough to make us nervous.
So when I was at a friend's house a few months ago, I realized I had a beautiful custom wood door. Fortunately for us, they also had one more. Perfect, I thought, sliding safety gate we can get a custom grid without spending an incredible amount of time to make one!
Of course, nothing is that simple sliding safety gate.
First, the door we went was just a piece of wood routered. He was also a bit too wide for our opening, so Kyle had to reduce it (which also meant re-cut corners) sliding safety gate. Then, 2 × 2 Kyle cut at both ends installed (screwed into the frame wall and painted white) for mounting the hinges and latch.
The wood had some flaws and imperfections, so I decided to paint sliding safety gate. At first I voted for Kyle white and dark gray interior of our steel, but finally landed somewhere between the two. (We were concerned that too much white will show dirt and handprints, but the dark gray to be too much of a focal point.)
The color is "Del Ray Gray" (Benjamin Moore). I like it very much. He looks a little lavender in the beginning, but I think we're used to him (or her? Kyle said he is still not a fan). anyway, sliding safety gate we're not repaint now.
