Tall baby gates for doorways and stairs usually offer an added degree of protection for kids who like to climb over or are a bit taller.
They help to keep kids away from areas that you don’t want them to be in, especially in the kitchen or the staircase area.
These gates are usually too tall for kids to reach their handles. In addition, the tall barrier helps to prevent pets from jumping over.
Tall designs are also great for parents who cannot bend their backs because of one reason or another.
Because of their convenient height, they are easy to open and close with only one hand. Those extra tall walk-thru designs are easy to use around the home.
Most of these gates feature heavy-duty metal railings and are over 39 inches in height. They come in different colors, designs, and styles that will complement your home decor.
