Product Description
Finally, there's a way to protect your children from the dual hazards of heat and fire from barbecues, fireplaces and wood-burning stoves as well as dangerous corners and hard, rough surfaces associated with hearths. The Hearth Gate is the solution for layouts that do not have mounting points straight across.The HearthGate fits hearths 6 ft. wide and 2 ft. deep. Large areas may require additional sections (sold separately). Five interlocking sections adjust in 10 degree increments and can be angled or set in a straight line as needed. Included in the 5-piece basic set is a walk through gate section that opens in either direction with a simple one hand adult release. The Hearth Gate is 29 1/2" high and constructed of strong tubular steel with a black non toxic, heat-resistant finish that is easy to maintain and blends with any decor. Measuring is easy - Simply determine the area to protect or isolate. Place objects at 24" intervals along the line of the intended gate configuration. Count the number of 24" segments to determine number of sections needed. Features: - Fits standard size hearths 6 ft. wide and 2 ft. deep
- Includes 5 interlocking sections
- Walk through gate section opens in both directions
- Simple one hand release
- Made of strong tubular steel
- Stands 29 1/2" high

Works for side-loading stoves. November 10, 2008

I rearranged the segments of this gate to put the swinging doorway on the last segment. This layout was to accommodate a side-loading wood stove. It was very easy to hook/unhook the segments.
Before ordering the product I called Kidco customer service to see whether the gate could be arranged in this fashion and the rep, while helpful, could not give me a solid answer. The answer is, yes, the doorway segment can be anywhere and the gate seems to be just as sturdy and can still be bolted to a wall.

We purchased this gate to keep our one year old son away from the fireplace. It was a little difficult to get each piece into the angle we wanted but now that it is set up it seems very secure (despite our son's attempts at shaking it apart). One negative is that we couldn't move the gate over one section. We have a fireplace insert so we need to swing a door open to feed the fire and having the gate opening where it is makes it a little cramped for us. Otherwise, we are very happy with the product. The gate door is very easy to open with one hand, which is so convenient. We will probably end up using it around our BBQ for the next few summers as well. I would recomend this product to a friend.
great product September 27, 2008

This is placed around our fireplace in our house and it has been a Godsend - no bumped heads from the hearth, no burns from the fire and it looks good too - my son has also tried to dislodge it from the wall on several occasions and it has stayed strong!!
Great product but save Money and Time September 25, 2008

Hearth Gate
Just purchased this gate which was highly recommended by a home safety consultant as being of good quality and durable. Only complaint was that when I went to install the gate sections, (The set fits hearths 6 feet wide by 2 feet deep, and it has five 24-inch sections), it became very apparent that I needed smaller sections in order to make the necessary angles to fit around our fireplace. Upon inspection I discovered that the gates plastic locking fasteners are attached with rivets and don't easily allow you to remove and then cut the gates to size so here's what I did. I drilled out the rivets and removed the (2)plastic locking fasteners,(very easy), cut the gates to size,(5 minutes with cheap hack saw), and reattached the plastic fasteners, by drilling (2) small pilots holes and then installed two small black screws. End result was very safe, very easy, and looks OEM. Saves $50.00 and waiting for a second order.
Excellent for Pets July 23, 2008

After flimsy baby gates, I purchased this hearth gate. I have now had it for 3 years and have ordered another I love it so much. The gate has never wore out, still easy to open and close. It slides up and down a bit at the wall so I can clean the floor under it. It is just narrow enough between rails that my small dogs can't get through. It's also sturdy enough to separate rooms, even 10 feet doorways and never waver. Anyone looking for pet gates and room dividers, this is the only way to go.
