EU Safety Gate · Report-2016-050
GEUTHER · Schwenk-Türschutzgitter (Swinging safety gate for doors)
The gaps between the bars of the safety gate are too large: A crawling child may get its body through the bars, leaving the head blocked. When struggling to get free, it could lead to respiratory difficulties or strangulation. There are protruding corners (the grey piece of the locking device and in the middle of the safety barrier) where the garments of a child could get caught, causing strangulation. The sticker label on the safety gate detaches easily and may be put it in the mouth by a small child, causing it to choke. The product does not comply with the relevant European standard EN 1930.
