Freestanding Pet Gate Requires No Installation
If you've got a baby in the house, or just an area you don't want your dog to get to, a pet gate is a handy solution for keeping a room off limits. Many of these pet gates can be a pain to install though. The two or three I've had experience with either had to be drilled into the doorway (causing permanent damage) or were always coming loose and toppling over.
This freestanding pet gate from Brookstone seems like a smart idea. It's built kind of like a soccer goal, so it can stand on its own. It looks like it'd be much easier to move (for the human) as well--no latches to fiddle with; you'd just have to push it back long enough to step through. The hardwood frame certainly looks nicer than those plastic and metal jobs too. The gate is adjustable, so it can extend to fence off wider than average doors, and rubber feet on the bottom help keep it in place.
A small gate is $125 and a large one is $150.
