Safety 1st offers different style baby gates, depending on your preference. Wood security gates are the least-expensive and most-popular style; the gate features a wood frame that is pressure mounted. The Easy-Fit Security Gate, with a plastic frame, comes with a memory feature, making reinstallation fast. The biggest visual difference is the wood frame versus the plastic bulky frame.
