Can you attach the sides of this product with zip ties as well? We do not have a wall or wood on one side of our metal railing.

Yes, even though the directions say to use screws on the ends of it, we used zip ties for everything and didn't use the screws at all since we didn't want to put holes in our wall or in the banister.

You could tie one side of the gate to the 1" banister. But what about the other side? They only provide you with two chords (as shown on right side of picture) to tie to a rail. You may have to buy 2 additional chords from them separately. Or you could use those $1 drawer clip locks from Home depot to fix these gates. It would still work. Good luck

There are 2 ways to attach these: with screws or with the provided 3M double sided glue tape. So unless you want to use neither and use your own velcro, the answer is no.

No. We had to zip tie all joints to keep it together. Without the zip ties, it won't hold anything. But, with the zip ties it works great.

maybe - you would have to install blocks of wood to the wall behind the railing so the bracket can be installed to it.

You could but you might want to put a couple of nails to join them together so they don't fall off. Put your heavier stuff in the bottom to anchor it. That is a great idea

Suggest bending the wire so it can be tightly wired or taped to the railing. In my case I attached the wire holder by screwing it in to the underside of the (wooden) eave. You may not want to drill into the ledge. Hope this helps.

Sure can! They just screw into the wall so you'd just unscrew and re-screw. The zip ties have an un-doable lock so you don't even have to buy new zip ties!

It doesn't seem to me that the side railings makes it less/more sturdy. It's just for toddler to not fall out. So if you don't put one of the side railings on it should be ok, you'll just see the screw holes.

That's exactly what I did. Of note: Keep in mind that these are light and move easily. So you'll need to strap them together. There are brackets out there, but I found zip ties did the job for 1/50th the price and you can't see them. Cheers!

Mine did not come with hardware to attach to a wall, and when I looked at it closely, it might be hard to attach a bracket to do that. We have used velcro straps to connect ours to a couple of different things (railings, a piece of furniture) but it isn't really designed for that.

You can, but i'm not sure how you'd secure it. It will sit there and sit flat, but you'll want to find a way to secure it to the railing.

Using the plastic corners was very unstable. I use these for storing paper for card making. I had to use zip ties on all 4 corners and the middle of each metal piece to construct a sturdy box for my purposes. Even then, they'd collapse on me. So mounting it on the wall could be done with nails I suppose, that might even be a good way to use them so they don't collapse.

You can put tape on the sides to hold them together, but it's a poor quality product. Don't waste your money.

Goooooood question!!!! No instructions on "how to attach". I used zip ties through one of the holes to attach to hanger. Not especially pleased with result.

Hi William, if you have the factory installed raised side rails, then yes the product will attach directly to those.

No all of the structural strength comes from the two side rails which mount to the wall and the top and bottom cross rails. You would need to come up with another of the side posts since each section needs two.
