Child Safety Gates Recalled for Entrapment and Fall Hazards

About 1,800 child safety gates sold online from October 2022 to February 2025 are recalled due to structural failures creating entrapment and fall hazards. The gates have gaps allowing a child's torso to fit and defective locking mechanisms.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: Risk-of-harm product with documented structural defects (gaps and locking failures) but no reported injuries or deaths. Per the rubric, when no illnesses/injuries are reported and the hazard is risk-based rather than confirmed, the maximum score is 3.

Plain-English summary

This recall involves approximately 1,800 child safety gates sold exclusively online through FidgetThings.com from October 2022 to February 2025. The gates were imported by Yiwu Baili Import and Export Co. of China and sold in several different sizes.

The gates violate federal safety regulations for expansion gates and expandable enclosures. Defects include gaps where a child's torso can fit between the gate slat and side wall, gaps in secondary openings, locking mechanisms that do not fully engage, and gates that do not adequately resist a push-out force. These failures pose a risk of serious injury or death due to entrapment and fall hazards.

No injuries or deaths have been reported. Consumers should stop using the recalled gates immediately and contact the third-party seller by email for information on how to dispose of the product and obtain a refund. The third-party sellers and Amazon are contacting all known purchasers directly.
