Make a Pet Gate for Your Stairs with PVC and Fabric

If you want to keep a pet from going up your stairs you can certainly buy a commercial pet gate, but for a fraction of the price you can assemble a rectangle using PVC and cover it with fabric.

Household weblog Sew Many Ways covers making this pet gate after the author's dog could no longer safely make it up the stairs. All that was needed was making a rectangle out of PVC pipe and elbow joints and covering that with whatever inexpensive fabric matches your home. You could also use this for a temporary baby gate but I'd look for a more secure way to attach the gate to your stairs in that case.
