No one likes surprises, especially while holding your baby. The Toddleroo by North States® Light the Way Gate® with a light-sensing LED sensor ensures a quiet life while keeping your baby safe day or night. The gate light will turn on when the room is dark, making it easy for you to see and open the gate. As the room becomes light, the LED sensor will automatically turn the light off. The gate can adjust between 28.75 – 38.25 inches wide and comes with two extensions included. This adjustable baby gate uses the tension knobs to secure it in place between walls. You can also hardware mount the gate for use at the top of stairs with hardware-secured mounting cups. The low threshold design of this gate is 50% lower than traditional metal pressure gates, making use safer for all. A control knob allows you to decide between only allowing the gate to swing in one direction (for top of stairs) or allowing the gate to swing in both directions (best between rooms/doorways). The LED spring-loaded baby gate will simply latch behind you for simple hands-free use. If you want the door to remain open, swing the door past 90 degrees to get the hold-open feature to kick in. Need to make the gate wider? The Light the Way Gate has additional extensions (sold separately) that will expand the gate up to 67.5 inches wide. If you have a wider hallway/doorway opening, take advantage of our 6-inch extension and 12-inch extension options.
