The retractable pet guard has a screen or net extending retractably from a housing which is temporarily secured to either the latch edge of a door or to the latch side of a door frame. The extension edge of the net secures removably to the opposite member of the door assembly, extending across the doorway when the door is opened. The device extends from the floor upwardly to about the level of the doorknob and latch, thereby preventing the escape of pets and/or small children while still permitting a transaction(s) to take place through the open doorway above the screen or net. A stop may be provided to prevent door closure due to the pull of the retraction mechanism, and/or a retraction stop may be provided to prevent retraction as desired. The device may also be installed in a window opening to serve as a window screen, if desired.

A gate for providing a barrier to an opening comprises a frame which is securable in the opening and a gate attached to the frame and pivotable to open and close the opening. A lock mechanism releasably secures the top and bottom of the gate to the frame and comprises a housing secured to the top of the gate, an operating handle movable vertically with respect to the housing, a latch secured to the handle for releasably engaging the top of said frame, and a locking rod fixed to the operating handle for releasably engaging the bottom of the frame. At least one coil spring is compressed between the operating handle and housing for biasing the operating handle downwardly to a position where the latch engages the top of the frame and the locking rod engages the lower frame member to lock the gate closed.

A safety gate has a gate frame, a pivotable fence, a latch device and a fence stopper. The gate frame has a base, two side frames and a block formed on the base. The pivotable fence is mounted within the gate frame. One side of the pivotable fence is pivotally mounted within the gate frame by a pivoting element. The latch device has a first pin member and a first latch member respectively having two magnets corresponding to each other. The fence stopper abuts against the block to limit the pivotable fence to be unidirectionally pivotable. The attraction force between the magnets and a restoring force of the pivoting element return the pivotable fence back within the gate frame. The fence stopper and the block abut against each other to avoid the circumstance when the pivotable fence is slammed too hard and the latch device is not securely locked.

A roll-up barrier has a base, an end cap, a drive shaft connected between the base and the end cap, a rolling assembly, a resilient element and a flexible barrier. The end cap has an arresting mechanism having a control button and an arrestor. The rolling assembly is mounted rotatably around the drive shaft and has a rolling bushing. The rolling bushing has an actuator and multiple one-way arresting teeth. The resilient element provides a reposition force for rolling back the rolling assembly. The flexible barrier is mounted retractably around the rolling assembly. When the control button is pressed and rotated, the actuator detaches the arrestor from the arresting teeth to allow rotation of the rolling assembly. When the control button is released, the arrestor engages the arresting teeth to prevent the rolling assembly from rotation so the flexible barrier can be pulled out and held at a desired length.

A protective railing includes a frame, a railing body, a lockset, two fix unit and plural position members. The position members secure the frame to a doorframe or in a passageway. If the railing body is to be opened, a push button on a grip is shifted to move a deadbolt inward to separate from an insert hole of the railing body, and then the grip is pressed down to move up a rack together with a connect tube, with a stop block of the rack and the connect tube separate from between two stoppers of the fix unit, unlocking the lock set to let the railing body opened. To lock the lockset, after the railing body is closed, the push button is shifted outward to move the deadbolt to insert in the insert hole of the raining body, finishing locking process.
