Extra stairgate? - Page 2

can you lock your bathroom from the outside? We can do it with ours (with the help of a coin)

Our door is usually left open when we're in bed but if we're downstairs it is shut (not that it makes much different now!) as he's a tinker and pulls everything out.

I suggested moving the stairgate off the stairs to his door but then realised thats such a silly idea because when I do the housework upstairs I let him have free roaming off the upstairs.

EDIT: I never thought about locking it from the outside, might try it!

I'd get the extra stairgate for his bedroom. That's where we've got ours upstairs so I'm glad really!

We don't have this problem yet as LO is still in her cot with the sides up lol. But we do have a stairgate at the top of the stairs - Will probably get a stair gate for her room when we take the sides of her cot off as we have stupid sliding doors with no handles on LOs room and the bathroom so can't shut them. x

We have five stair gates but this is irrelevant as Fynn now opens them!!!

Hoping we have a while before Kian starts opening the stairgates! We're going up MiL in a bit hopefully they will have more patients this time!
