Retractable fabric pet gates combine a soft barrier with a space-saving opening mechanism. The right choice depends on fit, pet behavior and where the gate will be used.
Fit
Crafted Gates fit openings from 27.6 to 55 inches wide and are 33 inches tall. Measure at the actual attachment points and follow the instructions supplied with the gate.
Pet behavior
Evaluate jumping, scratching, pushing and persistence. A barrier that works for one pet may not be appropriate for another.
Fabric
Crypton® is designed for indoor performance and helps resist stains, moisture and odors. Milliken® and InsideOut® support indoor/outdoor applications. Oil Waxed Canvas provides a textured, moisture-repellent option for pet-focused spaces.
Traffic flow
Retractable gates roll to the side when open, keeping the passage clearer than a rigid panel.
Care
Follow the care instructions for the selected fabric and inspect the gate regularly for damage.
