# Safety 1st Easy Close Metal Gate 73–80 cm, Wood Effect

Wood Effect: Safety 1st Easy Close Metal Gate is a pressure-fit barrier for openings 73–80 cm wide. Its claimed one-hand, two-way opening and push-or-slam closing suit busy doorways, while fitting relies on solid, stable supports rather than screws.

## At a glance

- Pressure fitting uses four contact points and requires no drilling or screws, according to the listing.
- The gate is described as opening one-handed in either direction and closing with a push or quick slam.
- The listing says it can be extended to 108 cm with separately sold extensions.
- Wood Effect styling is listed for a metal gate.

## Pros

- The 73–80 cm stated fit range and listed dimensions help assess whether it suits a narrow opening.
- One-hand, two-way opening and push-or-slam closing can simplify passage when carrying items.
- The pressure-fit design avoids drilling when the supporting surfaces meet the stated installation requirements.

## Cons

- Extensions and Y-spindles for round railings are sold separately, so wider or cylindrical mounting situations require additional parts.

## Before you buy

- The manufacturer says the gate can be used at the top or bottom of stairs and in door frames only with solid, stable, smooth, non-greasy supports, and not across windows. Its frame may look misaligned before installation, which the manufacturer says is intentional and should resolve when correctly fitted. The 108 cm maximum depends on separately sold 7 cm and 14 cm extensions. Y-spindles for round railings up to 5 cm diameter are also separate. The listing gives an opening range of 73–80 cm and separately states dimensions of 80W x 73H centimetres. Check the installation instructions and the measured opening before use.

## A good fit for

- Homes needing a pressure-fit baby or pet barrier for a 73–80 cm opening.
- Buyers who want a wood-look finish without choosing a wooden gate.
- People who prefer a gate that the listing says can be opened one-handed in either direction.

## Less suited to

- Openings wider than 80 cm if separately purchased extensions are not suitable or desired.
- Installations where the supporting surfaces are not solid, stable, smooth and non-greasy.
- Anyone needing a gate fitted across a window.

## Customer feedback

Customer feedback highlights appearance and quality as positives. The overall rating distribution is mostly five-star but includes lower-star ratings too, so experiences are not uniformly positive. These impressions may matter to buyers considering its metal construction and wood-effect finish, but they do not establish how it fits or performs in a particular doorway.
- Positive themes: Customer feedback highlights the gate's appearance and quality.

## Frequently asked questions

### What opening width does the gate fit?
The listing states a fit range of 73–80 cm. It also lists dimensions of 80W x 73H centimetres, so measure the opening and confirm how the dimensions apply before buying.
### Can it be used in a wider opening?
The manufacturer says separately sold 7 cm and 14 cm extensions can take it up to 108 cm. Those extensions are not stated as included.
### Does installation require drilling?
The listing describes a four-point pressure-fit system with no screws or drilling. It says the supporting surface must be solid, stable, smooth and non-greasy.
### Can it fit round stair railings?
The listing says a separately sold Y-spindle can be used on round railings up to 5 cm in diameter.
### How does the gate open and close?
The manufacturer describes one-hand opening in both directions and a button-and-lift double lock. It says a push or quick slam closes it, while an unslammed gate may remain open.
