1. A high-security pet and child confinement gate, the gate comprising:
a gate brace portion and a second brace portion;
a drop-in catch positioned on the gate brace portion, a portion of the drop-in catch fits into a hole formed in a metal sheath on the second brace portion, wherein the drop-in catch can be engaged by lifting the gate using a rotatable knob, positioning the drop-in catch over the hole formed in the metal sheath, and lowering the gate to lock the portion of the drop-in catch into the hole formed in the metal sheath;
the rotatable knob positioned on the gate brace portion, the rotatable knob when rotated in a first direction, extends a sliding bolt into a receiver hole located on the second brace portion, securing the gate in a closed position and preventing inward, outward and upward movement of the gate, wherein the sliding bolt additionally comprises a through-hole at a far end for inserting a locking device to prevent the sliding bolt from retraction from the receiver hole; and
a free-spinning mechanism positioned along a top of one or both of the gate brace portion and the second brace portion.
