They are; the standard size, extension gate, extra wide gate, free standing gate, plastic, pressure mount, stairway, swing, tall, walk thru, wide opening and wooden gates. Each type of gate offers a different set of features. Most are self explanatory but there are 5 types of gates that we’ll concentrate on here.
#1 Extension Pet Gates
The first gate to discuss is the extension gate. Extension Gates are necessary when you have a situation when the opening that you are trying to cordon off from you pet is larger than a standard size gate. But what does that mean? These gates are specifically designed so that “extensions” to the main part of the gate can be added in increments to fill in the desired opening you want to close off.
