Customer Care and Contact Information

Overview

This document is a care and instruction manual for the Cuggl Pressure Fit Safety Gate in Grey.

Function Description

The Cuggl Pressure Fit Safety Gate is designed as a safety barrier for domestic indoor use, intended to prevent children up to 24 months of age from accessing certain areas. It is a manual closing system that fits openings between 75cm and 81cm. The gate operates on a pressure-fit mechanism, meaning it is installed by applying pressure against the walls of an opening rather than requiring permanent fixtures like drilling into the frame (though wall cups with screws are provided for maximum safety in all locations, especially at the bottom of stairs). The gate features a two-way opening system that can be operated with one hand by pushing a button and lifting the gate. It also incorporates an easy-closing system. The design includes a visual indicator to confirm proper closure: the gate is considered closed when a "click" sound is heard and a red mark on the switch is invisible, indicating it is fully locked.
