The ideal baby gate is easy to breeze through while carrying a bag of groceries, but at the same time is an impenetrable obstacle to a toddler.
After talking to four childproofing professionals and installing and testing 20 baby gates, we think the best one for most situations is the Cardinal Gates SS-30 Stairway Special. (And it's the best for dogs as well.)
We have additional suggestions for wide openings, retractable gates, and freestanding enclosures—but we don’t recommend pressure-fit gates, a popular option that is less secure than our picks, not much easier to install, and actually likely to do more damage to your walls.
