Is the BabyDan Configure Flex XL Hearth Gate environmentally friendly?
Yes, BabyDan emphasizes sustainability in its products. The Configure Flex XL Hearth Gate is 100% PVC-free, with no harmful substances used in its coating, making it suitable for use in front of fires. Additionally, all BabyDan gates are made in Denmark since 1947, and the packaging for their home safety products is 100% biodegradable.
What materials are used in the construction of the BabyDan Configure Flex XL Hearth Gate?
The gate is constructed from powder-coated steel, ensuring durability and strength. The coating is free from harmful substances, making it safe for use around children and suitable for placement near heat sources like fireplaces.
How does the double locking mechanism of the BabyDan Configure Flex XL Hearth Gate work?
The double locking mechanism enhances safety by requiring two actions to open the gate: pulling back the latch with your thumb and lifting the door section. This design ensures that the gate is secure and prevents young children from opening it, while still allowing adults to operate it with one hand.
Can the BabyDan Configure Flex XL Hearth Gate be used outdoors?
While primarily designed for indoor use, the gate can be used outdoors. To help prevent rust, treat all exposed metal on the gate with a rust inhibitor. Some rusting may still occur, so it's important to regularly check and maintain the gate if used outside.
What is the recommended distance to place the BabyDan Configure Flex XL Hearth Gate from a heat source?
When used as a fire surround, always place the gate at a minimum of 75 cm (29.6 inches) away from the source of heat/fire and a minimum of 90 cm (35.5 inches) from open fire. Since every fireplace or wood-burning stove reaches different temperatures, these distances are guidelines. Test your unit at maximum heat output before placing the gate. If the gate is hot to the touch, move it further away from the heat source than the recommended minimum distance.
Are there any customer reviews available for the BabyDan Configure Flex XL Hearth Gate?
Yes, customers have shared positive experiences with the gate. For example, one reviewer mentioned, "Fantastic product. Delivered within four days of ordering. Very easy assembled. Plenty big and plenty of protection for your little ones." Another stated, "Excellent product, looks great & does not conduct much heat so very safe if baby touches it. Delighted with it!"
