Introduction
Following the birth of a child and after the celebration is all the stuff you have to buy to protect the house of “potential dangers”. Quickly, you realize that you need to buy a baby gate.
I looked at several models and I have not found a model that can suit my needs and my situation. I needed a baby gate that can:
- Cover a length of at least 52 inches.
- Operate at an angle of 41.9 degrees.
- Attachable to a wall and a stair railing.
- Non-intrusive (it should not leave any mark on the ramp once removed).
- Strong enough to withstand a child jumping on it.
Unfortunately, the area to be protected is very large and I have not managed to find a gate that is long enough and solid to block the access to the stairs. This is how I started this project: build my own baby gate.
