Product Description
Rarely does a mom or dad make it through a day without thinking they could use an extra set of hands. So First Years designed the next best thing -- a safety gate that doesn't require any hands at all! But even though it's simple for an adult to just press on the pedal and walk through, it's too difficult for a baby. The gate fits all standard doorways 29" to 34" wide, and, with use of the Gate Extension Kit (sold separately) will also fit other openings up to 44" wide. The pressure-mounted design won't damage walls or doorways. An audible click lets you know the gate has locked.
Amazon.com Product Description
Because of its simple "knee-knocker" mechanism, this Hands Free Gate can do exactly what the name implies: be opened without having to use your hands. Any parent occupied with little ones and all of their necessities will quickly recognize this as a huge benefit. To operate, simply press on the pedal with your toes and then bump the knee plate with your knee. Closing is just a nudge in the opposite direction; you will hear a click when the latch has caught, offering peace of mind that it's secure again.  | | The convenient foot pedal is easy for adults, but difficult for children, to open. | The pedal, knee plate, and hinges are designed so the gate can swing open from either direction. Even smarter is that the gate is purposely designed as easy-to-open for an adult, yet difficult for children. The gate's vertical bars curb curious toddlers from trying to climb over, are spaced to help prevent painful accidents, and provide ample visibility through to the other side.  | | Adjustable pressure mounts don't require screws and won't mark up your walls. | Able to fit in standard doorframes (29" to 34" wide), the all-metal safety gate is a pressure-mount device. Just twist the adjustable bolts at each of the four corners to get a proper, secure fit in your doorways. (If you have wider than standard doors, The First Years sells extension kits separately that can accommodate up to 44-inch wide openings.) It should be noted that this safety gate can be a little unsteady when used at the outer limits of its range, so you may want to consider an extension kit even if using in a standard doorway. Before you buy, there are two things to be aware of. One, the actual opening for parents, kids, and/or pets to walk through is only about 18 inches wide. Two, if you want to use this in a doorway and be able to close the door, the foot pedal sticks out too far to allow this. For use with children up to 24 months.

 Best hands free babygate I've owned March 6, 2010
Andrew J. Badertscher
This is my second gate I've purchased, it's fantastic. The foot operation is a life saver to be able to egress thru it without having to juggle what you are holding. This is also a great baby gate for keeping animals out of areas of your house.
Love it! March 5, 2010

Nice and sturdy! Easy to install and use. It has hands-free opening so its good when you have your hands full like I always do. This gate wont budge when it is installed so it is very safe. It looks nicer then some of the other gates on the market.
Not just for toddlers. Works great for doggies February 18, 2010

I have purchased several typical kids gates, but this one is great. It's so nice to have the hands free gate. My friend bought two.
Still great after 3+ years February 16, 2010

I have had this gate up since before we had our toddler, to contain our dogs. It is still in excellent shape and won't budge from the doorway. I just wish they made an extra-long version of this, and I would use it in every room we need a gate.
First Years Hands Free Baby Gate is the best Dog Gate ever! February 11, 2010
N. Gaye Redpath (HINSDALE, NY, US)
I am a breeder and have raised pups for many years. I required a sturdy chew proof gate that is easy to open and close while holding onto squirmy pups. This gate is the solution. It is without a doubt the best "dog/child" gate I have every purchased. As the advertisement suggests, I can easily open and close this gate without using my hands. For small puppy breeds you'll have to place a tight mesh on the lower part of the gate. I accomplished this by fastening the mesh on with cable ties and it has worked perfectly. I recommend this superior gate to anyone. You won't be disappointed!
