Over 90,000 foldaway expandable safety gates manufactured by Madison Mill, Inc. of Ashland City, Tennessee are being recalled due to choking hazards.
The recalled safety gates come in three feet and five feet extensions. They are made of hardwood and are used to contain children and/or family pets in certain rooms or areas of the home. Model and items numbers are located on the original packaging (Madison Mill 23 or Madison Mill 25). They are made with v shaped openings along the top edge. Children’s necks can fit into these openings, posing entrapment and strangulation hazards. Additonally, children can pass under the gate and gain access to restricted areas of the home.
The gates were sold for around $30 at Do It Best stores and other independent hardware stores nationwide from January 2013 through May 2017. Consumers are asked to immediately discontinue use of the gates and to contact Madison Mill for information on receiving a full refund. Consumers can contact Madison Mill at 877-220-4705 from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT Monday through Friday, email at tom.mckelvey@madisonmill.com or online at www.madisonmill.com and click on “Product Recalls” for more information.
