Gutters
Gutters are the padding between your columns, used to responsively space and align content in the Bootstrap grid system.
Horizontal gutters
.gx-* classes can be used to control the horizontal gutter widths. The .container or .container-fluid parent may need to be adjusted if larger gutters are used too to avoid unwanted overflow, using a matching padding utility. For example, in the following example we’ve increased the padding with .px-4:
<div class="row gx-5"> <div class="col"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div> </div> <div class="col"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div> </div></div>Vertical gutters
.gy-* classes can be used to control the vertical gutter widths. Like the horizontal gutters, the vertical gutters can cause some overflow below the .row at the end of a page. If this occurs, you add a wrapper around .row with the .overflow-hidden class:
<div class="overflow-hidden"> <div class="row gy-5"> <div class="col-6"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div> </div> <div class="col-6"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div> </div> <div class="col-6"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div> </div> <div class="col-6"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div> </div> </div></div>Horizontal & vertical gutters
.g-* classes can be used to control the horizontal gutter widths, for the following example we use a smaller gutter width, so there won’t be a need to add the .overflow-hidden wrapper class.
<div class="row g-2"> <div class="col-6"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div> </div> <div class="col-6"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div> </div> <div class="col-6"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div> </div> <div class="col-6"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Custom column padding</div> </div></div>Row columns gutters
Gutter classes can also be added to row columns. In the following example, we use responsive row columns and responsive gutter classes.
<div class="row row-cols-2 row-cols-lg-5 g-2 g-lg-3"> <div class="col"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Row column</div> </div> <div class="col"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Row column</div> </div> <div class="col"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Row column</div> </div> <div class="col"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Row column</div> </div> <div class="col"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Row column</div> </div> <div class="col"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Row column</div> </div> <div class="col"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Row column</div> </div> <div class="col"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Row column</div> </div> <div class="col"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Row column</div> </div> <div class="col"> <div class="p-3 border bg-light">Row column</div> </div></div>No gutters
The gutters between columns in our predefined grid classes can be removed with .g-0. This removes the negative margins from .row and the horizontal padding from all immediate children columns.
Need an edge-to-edge design? Drop the parent .container or .container-fluid and add .mx-0 to the .row to prevent overflow.
In practice, here’s how it looks. Note you can continue to use this with all other predefined grid classes (including column widths, responsive tiers, reorders, and more).
<div class="row g-0"> <div class="col-sm-6 col-md-8 p-3 border bg-light">.col-sm-6 .col-md-8</div> <div class="col-6 col-md-4 p-3 border bg-light">.col-6 .col-md-4</div></div>
