Finally assembled this gate correctly, after thoroughly messing up the installation process more than once. The instructions are fairly straightforward, except are fairly straightforward, except they forget to mention that it is incredibly difficult to tighten the tension points. Not only is incredibly difficult to tighten these rods, they also want you to do it simultaneously on both sides. Honest to God I ended up having to use a pair of locking grips because I couldn’t quite get it tight enough to where it was safe. The instructions also tell you to drill holes into your wall, using the guides given, and I am here to tell all of you renter folks that you definitely do not have to drill any holes into your drywall in order to successfully install this. The product is great. The functionality is awesome. However, if you are slightly less mechanically, inclined, or not as strong as Popeye himself, I would suggest watching an installation video and getting yourself a pair of locking vice grips. Other than that great product 4 stars!
