Basic question... need a baby gate recommendation

[mamainflorida]

Hi,
What's a good baby gate for a bedroom door? Are their different qualities, heights, etc?

We got our 19 month old a full size bed because she's been sleeping in our bed since she boycotted her crib 10 months ago and we'd like to put a gate at her door.

Thanks!

There are simple, pressure mounted ones that are a single panel, and there are pressure mounted gates that have locking doors to walk through. If you plan to keep the gate up all the time but need to enter and exit the room, get one with a door. It makes life much easier, rather than stepping over the gate. These are generally metal and are more expensive. Gates come in different widths and heights, but a "regular" width gate should fit in a standard doorway. There are also hardware-mounted gates (which are used for the top of the stairs) but you shouldn't need that for a bedroom. Diapers.com has a good selection to browse just to get an idea of what's out there.
