Retract-A-Gate Bracket Replacements

thingiverse

I have several retract-a-gate(s) that needed replacement brackets. I designed these in TinkerCad and they've worked perfectly so far. I also made a version that stands 20mm higher than its mounting surface to accommodate baseboard height differences. These brackets are thicker than the originals because I wanted them to be stronger. Right now, I have a pair of curious puppies running around the house. I created an additional bracket style that retains the gate but holds it more loosely than the standard design. I use this "looser" style in areas where the bracket is hard to reach, such as when using three brackets at a stairway base. The upper two brackets are standard and the bottom one is the "looser" style, which has prevented one of my puppies from squeezing through any gaps. Update: Unfortunately, none of this prevents one particular puppy from jumping over the gate...
