BabyDan Bi-Fold Gate

The Bi-Fold Gate (Guard Me) features a unique folding design that collapses back to one side, making it almost invisible when not in use. Unlike traditional swing gates that protrude into doorways or require floor space, this sleek gate folds flat against the wall, preserving your home’s aesthetics and maximising space. It’s perfect for design-conscious families who want safety without compromising style.

The gate fits openings from 55cm to 89cm in its standard configuration. With the optional 24cm extension panel (sold separately), it can accommodate openings up to 113.5cm. Standing 74cm high, the gate provides effective containment while meeting strict Australian and European safety standards. This flexibility makes it suitable for both narrow doorways and wider openings throughout your home.

The gate features panels that fold back on themselves in a concertina or accordion style, collapsing neatly to one side of the doorway when opened. This bi-fold action allows the gate to take up minimal space when not in use, unlike swing gates that need clearance to open. When closed, it creates a secure barrier; when opened, it virtually disappears, maintaining your home’s flow and appearance.

Yes, the Baby Dan Bi-Fold Gate is a hardware-mounted gate that can be safely installed on staircases. The bi-fold design creates no trip hazard when properly installed, as it doesn’t have a bottom bar protruding across the opening. However, professional installation is essential for stairway applications to ensure secure mounting and proper operation on the potentially uneven surfaces around stairs.

Yes, the 24cm extension panel is sold separately and only needed if your opening exceeds 89cm. Many families find the standard 55-89cm range sufficient for most doorways. However, if you have wider openings or want the flexibility to use the gate in multiple locations of varying widths, the extension panel allows you to expand the gate’s reach to 113.5cm.

The Bi-Fold Gate’s almost-invisible design when folded makes it perfect for open-plan living, modern architecture, and design-conscious families. It doesn’t interrupt sightlines or aesthetics like traditional gates, yet provides the same safety protection. The sleek profile and choice of white or clear finishes allow it to blend seamlessly into contemporary interiors while keeping your child safe.

Absolutely. As a hardware-mounted gate with a folding mechanism, proper installation is critical for both safety and smooth operation. Our Sydney experts ensure the gate is mounted to solid wall studs or appropriate mounting points, aligned correctly so the bi-fold action operates smoothly, and installed at the proper height. Professional installation guarantees long-term performance and your child’s safety.
