Baby Gate Adapter for Bottom of Stairs

thingiverse

I designed and printed these pieces so that I could install a baby gate at the bottom of the stairs. The baluster at the bottom of the stairs is rounded with a diameter that varies between 48 and 50 millimeters at the relevant height. The "flat adapter" piece is used to create a flat surface on the baluster for the baby gate to press against to hold itself in place. It has a small circular divot on the top surface to help orient the part during installation. The feet (I printed two) keep the gate at a consistent height during installation. I only use the gate to keep my less than 10 pound dog away from the stairs. Consider a more robust solution for children or larger animals.
