Details

  • From Frisco by Chewy. The durable, steel, eight-panel design of this versatile gate can be wall mounted or stand freely in different shapes, such as an octagon, rectangle or square, to fit your space and needs.
  • Includes large anchors to secure the gate between walls and separate open spaces, creating a place for your pet to roam freely. Gate-mounting requires a pencil and screwdriver, and freestanding setup can be done tool free.
  • Each 30-inch-tall panel has a powder-coated finish and features easy-press buttons that allow you to quickly remove panels and tailor the gate to your needs. Gate measures 186.5 inches without mounting brackets or 190 inches with brackets.
  • Self-closing door automatically shuts if left open less than 90 degrees, swings freely in both directions and features a dual-lock system to keep your pet safely contained.
  • Frisco products are crafted to deliver more happy moments together—from sturdy dog gates to adorable apparel, to leak-proof potty gear. Designed, tested and approved by the pet experts at Chewy.

If you were to buy 2 of these, would you be able to combine them together and make one larger secured area?

Answer by Will • Oct 18, 2025
Short answer: yes. Long answer: the end panels of each has a mount for the wall and so you can’t directly hook two sets up to each other, but by loosening the locks (the ones between each panel used to lock the panels in whatever arrangement) all the way, you can remove the end panels from each set and from there it’s pretty easy to join them together.

CAN THE PANNELS BE REMOVED TO ACCOMIDATE A SMALLER SPACE?

Much flimsier than the product used to be

I have purchased this gate previously and the original version that I purchased was well made, sturdy, and felt pretty substantial. I used it to create a barrier around my front door to keep my escape artist from, well.. escaping. I recently purchased a new one and installed it at my new home and it is not nearly as sturdy as the previous version and the gate part isn't super well made and flimsy. The previous one used to weigh a bit more and it kept it in place when opening and closing the gate so it was possible to do it with one hand, but this version is so light it just moves all around. Pretty disappointed in the loss of quality but it serves the intended purpose okay.

Ease and flexibility to meet multiple needs

My dog needed orthopedic surgery and was going to have to be confined for her recovery. She does not do well in a crate or cage. I needed to find something affordable

My dog needed orthopedic surgery and was going to have to be confined for her recovery. She does not do well in a crate or cage. I needed to find something affordable that would confine without causing too much stress. This FRISCO dog gate and playpen is perfect. The ease and flexibility to configure the design to meet the needs of my household worked great. I was able to make an enclosure that feels open and use leftover panels to make a barrier for the stairs!

This accordian style dog gate/fence fell apart just trying to get it out of the box. It's super confusing to try and put together and it breaks apart whenever you barely move it. I'm going to find a new box because I unfortunately recycled the box it came in --because I want to try and return it and get my money back. Total waste and headache on top of that.

I bought this for my 9 month old. When I received it, it said on the box not for children, pet use only. Would have been nice to know before I ordered it. Im also having a difficult time returning it. They said they would mail the return slip within 7-14 days. It's been 29 and I still have not received it. I will not be purchasing anything from Chewy again.

Love that the fate can be opened either direction, can be opened with one hand, and automatically closes. It feels very sturdy and is extremely easy to mount to the wall. All you need is a screw driver and you are good to go! Looks great in the living room as well.

Puppy fit through the bars

Overall great playpen/gate, easy to set up and heavy duty. My miniature poodle managed to fit through the bars though so we’ll have to get one with thinner bars

The gate is mostly metal, but the connectors are all plastic. If you have a chewer, this could be a problem. I actually bought this twice, and I've been using the first one for spare parts.

Sturdy and flexible at the same time

My husband and I were seriously surprised at the quality of this gate. It is unbelievably sturdy, in that it doesn’t tip or feel at all unsteady, even when we were

My husband and I were seriously surprised at the quality of this gate. It is unbelievably sturdy, in that it doesn’t tip or feel at all unsteady, even when we were trying to make it unsteady to test it out like our large dog and toddler grandson likely would. The size of the individual gates is perfect in helping to customize it based on our space, in different uses. The section that has theopening door is incredibly useful, much to our surprise. We are just really impressed with this gate, and we’ve been so pleased with how ithas worked out.

Well built and customizable

We have 2 large dogs that would charge our insides of our front doors scratching them to look out the windows. We needed a gate we could position in our own formation and not necessarily screw into the walls. So far so good. They do not jump up on it. We placed small pieces of grip mats under the hinge areas to keep it from sliding. The grip mats seemed to help quite a bit. The door works well though somewhat narrow. I would buy it again.
