We have finally purchased a MH after a lot of dreaming.

Is it possible to purchase a narrow safety gate to keep our one year old inside when the rear door is open?

Drummer

No idea Slow Very Happy

But welcome to the site, THAT is definately how to bring up a child! Wink

Enjoy.

Piece of bungee cord might do the trick Wink

Hi Slow, welcome to the site.

Not sure if it would work, but the wife suggested some of that expandable trellis. You can get it in plastic or wood, you would just need a means of fixing it.
Whatever you do, it doesn't want to be too permanent.
A more expensive solution would be to have the door one of those stable types. Either new or have yours modified.

Wouldn't a safety gate fit inside the door frame, against a cupboard and wardrobe?

Sorry if this is of no help

Not being of a maternal type I wouldnt know but cant you get those expandable gates to put at the top of stairs etc or are they too wide? They have suckers on dont they which Im shure can be addapted to clips etc

Were not being a great deal of help here are we Embarassed

Hi Slow, welcome to the forum Very Happy

I'm sure you can get narrow gates, www.johnlewis.com have a selection including adjustable and travel versions. My Dad makes his dog gates out of old tent poles, plastic trellis and thin plumbing pipes. Depends on whether you like DIY!

Thanks for all the help. Have located a roller blind type gate on John Lewis website for £55. Cheap for a safe baba, but expensive for parents who've handed their life's savings and a little more to a MH dealer recently!

May try shutting the door in the short term...
