G16a, G15d specifications

The Kidco G15D and G16A are innovative products designed to enhance your family's safety and convenience. These two models showcase Kidco's commitment to developing high-quality safety solutions for households with young children and pets.

The Kidco G15D is an adjustable safety gate that serves as an effective barrier to prevent children from accessing hazardous areas of the home. One of its main features includes a pressure-mounted installation, allowing it to fit between doorways or staircases without the need for complex tools or drilling. This feature makes it ideal for apartment living or rental homes where minimizing damage to walls is essential. The gate is crafted from durable materials, ensuring it withstands frequent use while maintaining its structural integrity.

Another significant aspect of the G15D is its swing gate mechanism. This allows for easy passage while maintaining safety, as the gate swings open in both directions and securely locks into place. The one-handed operation is particularly beneficial for parents carrying items or holding a child, making it user-friendly in day-to-day scenarios. The G15D is also designed to accommodate pets, providing a versatile solution for families with both children and furry companions.

On the other hand, the Kidco G16A offers a slightly different approach with its extra-wide safety gate suited for wider openings. Its unique design is ideal for larger spaces such as playrooms or wider hallways. Like the G15D, the G16A features a pressure-mounted system that ensures a secure fit without damaging surfaces. This model is particularly praised for its ease of installation, often able to be set up in mere minutes.

The G16A also boasts an adjustable width with extension options available, making it adaptable for various settings. Additionally, its sturdy build provides an extra layer of assurance as it is designed to withstand the rigors of an active household. The safety gate integrates child-proof locking mechanisms, ensuring that curious little hands cannot easily open it.

Both models are made from non-toxic materials, prioritizing the well-being of your family. The Kidco G15D and G16A are designed to be both functional and stylish, blending seamlessly into home decor while providing peace of mind. With these gates, families can create safer environments for their loved ones, ensuring that children can explore and play without the risk of encountering dangerous areas. Whether you choose the G15D or the G16A, Kidco delivers quality and reliability in child and pet safety solutions.
