Hi,


Now that our daughter is nearly walking I'm finally getting stairgates, but am utterly confused about what size to get. I know we need the width to fit about 85cm. However none of the gates focus on height, which seems really important! In order to get to the "flat part" of the banister, the height from the floor is about 84-94cm, but stairgates either seem to be 73-76cm high or else over 95cm high. Am I being silly about this (we want screw fixed ones) - would a 75cm one fit because the gate wouldn't touch the floor and because the fittings are not at the very edges of the gate?


Any advice welcome before I order something online! If you know of one which is taller without being too tall, would love to hear about it.


Thank you very much

    • Hello there, can I pls check whether anyone else on here has been affected by noise from e-bike hire companies servicing bikes overnight? I live near an e-bike parking bay and am regularly awoken at silly o'clock by the noise from mechanics chucking the bikes in and out of vans. Lime seems to be the worst offender. Please either post on here or PM me if you are experiencing similar issues. 
    • Your mental health is affected by your environment, and how you do things affects your life. If you can focus on small things, it will have a big impact. I think you're being facetious, but people do live like that. I also operate an organised chaos strategy, as I'm sure many people do, which is essential with family and busy lives

    • I disagree with the who concept of tidying one room at a time. I find it's more effective to increase the overall level of tidy by 10% regularly, and take regular breaks.  Always straighten your bed first - your bed is your priority and your haven. Change the sheets if you have clean ones to use. 1. pick up all rubbish around the house; take it out. 2. pick up all crockery etc that needs a wash: put it all in one place and start to sort it out. Wash and dry whatever you can put away easily. Wash things by type - I'll do cups then plates, then cutlery, then pots..... 3. Kitchen surfaces - tidy things you can, be ruthless - everything is going to need a home. Sweep the floor, wipe the surfaces. 4. Pick up all laundry around the house. Start to sort it out so you are in control of it - wash types together - eg all sheets.  4. bathroom - so on..... Then, the entire house is an better environment. and you can just keep going.
