Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

IKEA is recalling approximately 80,000 PATRULL, PATRULL FAST, and PATRULL KLÄMMA safety gates and extensions because the locking mechanism can open unexpectedly. The firm has received 55 reports of incidents worldwide, including 10 injuries such as concussions, cuts, and bruising. These white gates are made of beech wood or steel and plastic and were sold at IKEA stores and online between August 1995 and June 2016 for between $10 and $60. Consumers should immediately stop using these products and return them to any IKEA store for a full refund.

Risk

The locking mechanism on the gates can fail and open without warning, allowing children to fall down stairs or access restricted areas. This defect has already resulted in reported head injuries and concussions to children.
