Why Choose Custom Made Stair Gates?
Standard shop-bought stairgates are functional but rarely complement your interior. Our bespoke wooden stair gates are crafted as an extension of your home’s design, matching your existing woodwork to create a cohesive, elegant look throughout your property.
Unlike mass-produced alternatives with awkward metal frames and plastic components, our handmade wooden stair gates use premium hardwoods and quality fixtures to deliver both beauty and durability. Each wooden stairgate is tailored to your exact specifications, ensuring a perfect fit every time.
The MJ Kloss Difference
No Bottom Bar Trip Hazard
We eliminate the dangerous bottom bar found on most standard gates. Our bespoke stair gates are designed specifically for stairs and doorways, providing safe passage for adults while keeping children and pets secure.
Seamless Design Integration
Your custom stair gate can be crafted from the same wood as your staircase, whether that’s oak, ash, pine, or any other hardwood or softwood. We match grain patterns, colors, and design details so your gate looks like it’s always been part of your home rather than an afterthought.
Flexible Infill Options
Choose from traditional timber spindles, contemporary metal balusters, or elegant glass panels. If your staircase features glass balustrades, we can mirror this design in your wooden baby gate for complete visual harmony.
Premium Hardware
Every gate features chrome fixings and ball-bearing hinges for smooth operation and a high-end finish. Our secure latching mechanisms are easy for adults to operate but keep curious children safe.

Bespoke Baby Gates for Every Space
We understand that every home is unique. Our made to measure stair gate service accommodates wide openings, angled walls, awkward bannisters, and unusual configurations that standard gates simply cannot fit.
Whether you need an oak baby gate for a traditional property, a white wooden stair gate for a contemporary interior, or a stained finish to match existing joinery, we craft solutions tailored to your home and lifestyle.
Popular Design Options
Traditional Timber Spindles
Classic wooden stair gates featuring vertical spindles that match your existing staircase. A timeless look that’s easy to maintain and complements period properties beautifully.
Glass Panel Gates
For homes with glass staircases or modern interiors, we create wooden baby gates with glass panels and timber uprights, reflecting your staircase design for a sleek, cohesive appearance.
Metal Spindle Infill
Contemporary bespoke stair gates combining wooden frames with metal balusters. Perfect for creating contrast or matching existing metal spindles in your balustrade.
Painted Finishes
Hand-painted gates in any color you desire. White wooden stair gates remain a popular choice for coastal and Scandinavian-inspired interiors, while custom colors can match any décor scheme.

Complete Customization
Your handmade wooden stair gate can be fully customized to your requirements. We’re happy to accommodate special requests including cat flaps built into the gate, specific hinge positions, custom heights beyond the standard 75cm, left or right-hand opening configurations, and unique decorative elements.
Simply provide us with your dimensions and requirements, and we’ll craft a gate that fits perfectly and functions exactly as you need.
Design, Craft, Install
Our comprehensive service covers every stage from initial consultation through to professional installation. We visit your home to assess the space, discuss design options, and take precise measurements. You’ll receive detailed drawings showing exactly how your bespoke baby gate will look and function.
Each gate is then handcrafted in our workshop using traditional joinery techniques and quality materials. We handle the complete installation, ensuring secure fixing whether you need wall-mounted posts or integration with existing newel posts and handrails.
Built to Last
These aren’t temporary plastic barriers you’ll dispose of in a few years. Our custom stair gates are built with the same attention to detail and craftsmanship as fine furniture. Many clients commission matching gates throughout their home for hallways, doorways, and room dividers, creating a unified look while maintaining safety zones.
When your children outgrow them, these quality pieces can be repurposed, stored for grandchildren, or even passed down as heirloom pieces.
Keeping Children Safe in Style
We believe safety features should enhance your home, not detract from it. Our wooden stair gates allow you to protect your family and separate spaces while maintaining the sophisticated, modern look of your interior.
Whether you’re adding to an existing staircase or planning a complete renovation that includes stairgates from the outset, we work with you to create solutions that fit seamlessly with your vision.
