Professional installation of multiple stair gates - typically top and bottom of stairs fitted in one visit. Complete stair safety done properly, with secure fixings that won't pull out.
### One Visit, Complete Protection
Stairs need protecting at **both ends**. A gate at the bottom stops climbing, a gate at the top prevents falls. Getting both fitted together means **complete protection in one visit**.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** The top-of-stairs gate is the critical one - it needs screw fixing, not pressure mounting. We always recommend wall-fixed gates at the top.

Good to Know
> ⚠️ **Top gate is critical** - never use a pressure-fit gate at the top of stairs. If a child pushes against it repeatedly, pressure gates can pop out. Wall-fixed only at the top. **Gate types:** - Screw-fixed (most secure - required at top) - Pressure-fit (OK at bottom only) - Retractable (roll-up style) - Extra-wide (for wide openings) **Consider also:** - Landing gates - Doorway gates - Kitchen access
Frequently Asked Questions about Multiple stair gate installation in Dawlish
Do I need gates at both top and bottom?
Yes - the top gate prevents falls down the stairs, the bottom gate stops climbing attempts. Children can climb before they can safely descend stairs.
Can you fit different brands together?
Absolutely - you might want different types for different positions. Many people prefer a screw-fixed gate at the top and pressure-fit at the bottom.
What about landings?
If you have split-level stairs or a landing with access to another set, you may need a third gate. We'll advise when we see the layout.
Is it cheaper to have both done together?
Yes - we're already set up with tools, so doing multiple gates in one visit is more efficient than separate appointments.
