I talked to my husband and he thinks he can put something together...maybe won't be as professional looking but hopefully less than an $80 child proofing gate! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/safetychild-gate-for-deck#post-2113371 Wed, 18 Mar 2015 15:25:11 +0000 Truth Bombs 2113371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would maybe check out hardware stores for small gates for decking and fencing. Things are usually less expensive if they aren't specifically marketed for children. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/safetychild-gate-for-deck#post-2113368 Wed, 18 Mar 2015 15:23:31 +0000 Mamaof2 2113368@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@serenity207: is your dh handy? Mine just made one out of 2x4's and put a latch on it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/safetychild-gate-for-deck#post-2113364 Wed, 18 Mar 2015 15:21:50 +0000 serenity207 2113364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our deck has an opening with a couple of stairs down to the lawn and I'm looking for a gate or something to keep the deck enclosed so I can have my kids play on the deck and be comfortable with them playing out there while I start dinner inside, etc. There are plenty of windows and a large deck door in the kitchen so I can easily keep an eye on them from the kitchen but would feel more comfortable knowing there isn't a way to get off the deck. I guess I'm looking for something like this <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Cardinal-Gates-Outdoor-Child-Safety/dp/B00CE8C7SO" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Cardinal-Gates-Outdoor-Child-Safety/dp/B00CE8C7SO</a> but preferably more affordable!</p> <p>Any suggestions for other outdoor gates or something else I could try? TIA! </p>
