The only safety hearthgate I can find seems to be about $180. I am looking to see if anyone has done anything besides this and what that might be. If we have to get the $180 gate, we will but if there are other alternatives, i'd love to hear them! I am waiting for my fire inspection to be scheduled. Thanks!

Is it in a room you use regularly? Our fireplace is in our formal living room. We have a baby gate blocking entrance to that room to keep little feet away.

That being said, we haven't had our homestudy so I don't know whether we'll have to do even more.
