do you have to adjust the door spring for the extra weight

The website FAQ states that each pack adds an additional 10 lbs. For a single door this should have no impact. If your door is older or requires two packs(20 lbs), adjustment may be required.

It will have no problem if you make sure that the spring that opens the door is set so it will lift the door.

No it doesn't put too much strain on the door. The force is distributed accross the entire door so no one part of the door gets overstressed

No you do not. It is secure in place with pressure, you can adjust screws to the rubber ends (that will press against your door frame) for a tight fit. We have had ours in place well over a year, and it is the absolute most sturdy baby gate we have ever had. I am bummed we didn't find it sooner, it would have been a much greater investment than some of the others we purchased. It takes your entire bodyweight to release, so very secure (and not even a lightweight child could open).

The very top portion of the door is a panel that has a spring in it. It adjusts to the height of your door and then there are screws (provided in the installation kit) that are used to secure the height so it is stable. I have installed this type of door in a vinyl door and a metal door.

Unfortunately, no. I didn't pay close enough attention when I bought this, but instead of returning it I rigged up a bar to hand it from. This is definitely not a hang from any kind of a door item.

Yes, the very top section of the door is spring loaded, so there is flexibility in the height.

It is adjustible. We have dobermans and raised the default setting. We love this door.

I am no expert, but don't believe size of the door is at issue. Size shouldn't be an issue if properly balanced by springs....

Yes it does. The locking clip that prevents the slider to open can stay in place to allow you to just raise the bar. If you place the bar about the midway point on an eight foot door you have to collapse the bar because it will be too long to clear the top of the door.

I think so. The door is really light. Once it has been released by the magnet, it moves quite freely.

Yes, the spring is not permanently attached to anything. I would recommend using two people once again to do the removal with the weight of the tail gate.

It comes with for standard screws and some sheet rock anchors. It doesn't weigh much but a you may need a trip to the hardware store to get better anchors for your door

The spring tension is adjustable. I used it on a gate and it was installed on the outside of the gate.

The straps themselves are not adjustable. When attached to the door you can adjust what length/height you want by the different knots along the strap when the door is closed, so in a sense the door is the only way to adjust the strap.

Yes. The top of the panel has a spring on it so you just slide the panel into place and push the spring down until it fits into the top of the door. We love ours. It has worked perfectly. Sturdy and well-designed. Very, very easy to put into the door opening.

The pressure on the door frame is distributed in 3 points/directions. I've noticed no damage or changes to my door frame/molding. I weight 160 lbs.
