Product Description
The Gate Installation Kit is required for the safe installation of almost any safety gate that is not being mounted in a wooden doorway frame. This kit includes the materials and fasteners necessary to install the gate to wood banisters, hollow walls, or wrought iron. More than one kit may be necessary, if you have wrought iron or wooden banisters on both sides.
Editorial Review
This handy gate installation kit makes it possible to mount a metal KidCo Safety Gate on a variety of different structures and surfaces around the house. The kit is well equipped and comes with everything you will need (except tools) to attach a KidCo Safety Gate to wood banisters, wrought iron banisters, and hollow walls. The step-by-step instructions are easy to follow and include pictures and illustrations that will come in handy during installation. Depending on the type of surface the gate will be mounted on, adult installers can choose to install a gate with either wood screws or plastic ties. Along with wood screws, a wing nut, washer, toggle bolt, and plastic ties, the kit includes a 33-inch-long piece of pine wood and a pine wood spacer for installations on walls with molding at the base. Mounting a KidCo Safety Gate on a wrought iron banister requires two gate installation kits for each side of the gate. Additional tools, including a drill and screwdriver, are required to install a gate properly. --Chris Burns

 Kidco Gate Installation Kit March 10, 2007

We recently purchased this kit to install on the top and bottom stairs with a kidco gate. It was very easy to install, its very sturdy and we did not have to drill any holes into our banister. We would definately recommend it to everyone.
Works great November 6, 2008
I realize that this is just a piece of word and plastic ties but it does exactly what it says it does. We have a wrought iron railing and needed something that we could attach to the rail in order to mount our gate and this worked perfectly. It was really easy...I mounted it myself while my husband was at work. We've had it up for about 10 months now and it hasn't budged.
 Convenient! March 18, 2007

I could have easily gotten the contents of this kit at my local hardware store for a fraction of the cost, but this kit saved me time and effort because I didn't have to buy wood and then cut it to the appropriate length, find the right screws and parts, and I didn't have to buy these items in bulk which would have been a waste. Of course, if you are a handy-person you probably have all of these parts right in your basement- these are common items (screws, wood, zip ties, wall anchors, etc).
The kit allowed me to install the KidCo gates at the top and bottom of my stairs along a wall with moulding and a decorative wood banister. I did have to drill holes in the wall and banister to make the gate as secure as possible. My only complaint is that the wood came in a natural wood color, but with a greenish tint which did not match my house. I painted the wood white before i mounted the gates. There is nothing profound about this kit, but I do recommend this kit to anyone who does not have the time to figure out all the extra parts necessary to mount the gate to a difficult location. It is very convenient!
works well if you want to drill into the wall, otherwise, don't buy January 24, 2008

My husband and I got this thinking that we needed to mount our gate to the wall. after fiddling with it for some time, we gave up on mounting it and used the tension bars instead. the product is a little confusing to assemble and the gates, for the most part, do not need to be mounted to the wall to work well.
Simple, but effective... May 14, 2007

I used the installation kit so I wouldn't have to drill holes in my the post of my stair rail. You can buy everything that comes in the kit at your local hardware store, but if you don't feel like wasting the time to go shop for the different pieces, then the kit is an easy solution.
