Old accordion model toddler gates are unsafe. Gates at the leading of stairways need to be components mounted (e.g., to the wall) for security. Guardrails, a minimum amount of 30-6 inches in height, need to be offered at open up sides of stairs, ramps, and other walking surfaces (e.g., landings, balconies, porches) from which there is a lot more than a 30-inch vertical distance to tumble.
