Pet gates are indispensable when you"re house-training a new pup. This Richell One-Touch Pet Gate is designed for small to medium dogs with a weight of 8 to 44 lbs. Its durable tension-mount design allows you to attach it to a doorway/hallway opening to keep your pet confined to his/her own special area. The door of the Richell pet gate opens in both directions, so you can move freely from room to room. The pet gate also features a convenient step-over bar. The one-touch handle provides the option of opening/closing the gate with one hand, if necessary, while the lockable gate door provides additional pet security. Easy to install, the gate comes complete with instructions, and you can mount the gate in a door or hall in your home. In addition, the rubber stops won"t damage the surface of the walls. Its neutral white finish will also blend easily with almost any home decor.
