Baby gates for interior stairs

We used the Dreambaby Chelsea Extra Tall Auto Close Security Gate . It worked on all but one of our flights of stairs. FWIW, the gates are more important at the top of a flight of stairs than they are at the bottom.

We live in a typical brownstone with old stairs and need to baby proof ASAP – my 10 month old has already figured out how to climb the stairs. Doesn’t seem like anything on the market will work…am I wrong? Can’t figure out how anything will be sturdy and safe. Has anyone worked with carpenter to do custom gates?

We had no trouble finding baby gates for our stairs when my son was small > 30 years ago. A quick search on Amazon just showed many models available now.
