DIY by Self-Closing Gate Kit, Black (Pack of 1)

Solide et top qualité. Ne regrette pas mon achat !!!

TL;DR: This is an excellent gate and makes access to your pool really convenient. Installation is not trivial. If you're not handy, have a professional install it for you. Always make sure the self closing part of the gate is tight and assure that the gate closes.When we purchased our house, the safety fencing that was already installed was in great shape, but very hard to open because you had to pull a single section out of the ground every time you wanted to pass through it. It was so tightly fitting that my wife couldn't really open it without help. And when it was already open, you had to leave it open to get back through it again on your way back, which meant that for that time, our toddler had access to the pool. None of this was ideal. We needed a gate.After doing a lot of research I found this one and bit the bullet and ordered it. The price seemed high, but it is honestly a very well constructed and quality product, and I was pretty happy when it arrived. However, installation should be done by someone handy and with the tools to drill into the pool deck or flooring where your gate is. I'm pretty handy, but I called over my dad, who's very comfortable with this kind of thing, and we tackled it together.We had to cut off a section of the existing fencing in the middle where we wanted the gate installed. I drilled holes for this gate's 'posts' into our pavers. We attached those posts as instructed to the existing fencing and then put the rest of it together. The instructions are pretty good, but can be a bit confusing at parts, and the quality of the parts are excellent.One year later and this gate is still functioning great. The self latching parts of the gate will need adjustment from time to time, so keep a flat head handy to tighten it over the first month or two. There's two hinges with springs that need to be turned to adjust how quickly you want it to pull itself closed. I turned those suckers up pretty high so they would close quickly behind us and not accidentally close too softly to latch shut. I would love to find an outdoor chime that 'dings' whenever the door is opened, but haven't found one yet.IMPORTANT / SERIOUS NOTE...The most important thing for anyone installing a gate is making sure that it's full proof, and doesn't fail to latch. It needs to ALWAYS latch behind you, and you need to be sure of it closing every time. A few years back we had very good friends who lost their 2 year old son to a pool drowning. They were good people who were never neglectful of their child and kept a very close watch on him. They were proof that tragedies like this can happen to anyone. They turned their back for a few seconds and that's all it took. Please, make sure you install this gate and fencing properly and securely, and always make sure the gate latches behind you securely.UPDATE: 2 years later and this thing is still working perfectly. Couldn't be happier with it.

This was the best for self install. The guy that put the video on the website for instructions said it really well. It takes a little to follow the instructions as they are a little - not really confusing, but different. After that it is an easy install. Get a good hammer- drill and a good bit and it will go well for you. I got the drill guide as well And I think it helped pretty good. Super easy to install and take down. The gate is a little tricky but just follow the supplied directions. Some of it takes some Common sense.

J’adore cette porte. Elle est très solide et la serrure est bien pensée. Seule point négatif c’est le manuel de montage qui est semi-clair. Facile à ajuster et les pentures se ferment automatiquement et on peut ajuster la fermeté des ressort.

We did the DYI fence and gate and installed this ourselves. We attempted to purchase a knockoff brand and it was garbage... we shelled out for the brand name gate and could not be happier! We have a toddler and the peace of mind this gate gives us is worth the price! The install was very easy following the template provided and detailed instructions with pictures and descriptions. The gate is self closing AND self latching. You need to be "adult height" to reach the mechanism to open the gate. The gate also has a key to lock the gate shut if you're not home or your tiny human eventually gets bigger. This is an investment and we are SO HAPPY WITH IT and the peace of mind and safety it offers.
