Does this gate have a stay-open feature? Thanks!

Not that I'm aware of. When we had furniture delivered we had to take it down each time.

No it's free swinging, so there is no hold open. That said assuming you mount it level and plumb it should stay opening if you want it to. Our does. Hope this helps.

It does not have a stay open feature (that I remember, we don't have the gate anymore). I remember one of them stayed open unless it was manually closed, and the other would slowly go back to closed position (though not latched). Hope that helps!

Sometimes. But depending on the angle and stair position, sometime it swings back to the middle.

No. Gates with that feature are pretty descriptive to that point. This is a very cheap gate. You can't apply to much pressure with it or it will break.

No. You need to lift up the bar and take gate aside to walk through and then set it up again. It is a draw back, but I still like it because it is simple and easy and reasonably priced. I do, however, admit that I use this gate on openings that I don't go in and out of very often.

no that hasn't happened to me. Mine has a bit of trouble actually getting closed as it is so tight. We just shut it until it stops then push the buttons to close it the rest of the way. Otherwise we slam it shut and then it shuts just fine. We love the gate especially the fact that we can take it off and leave the brackets when we want to.

Yes, you can open the gate from either side; that's the whole point of this latch. I don't know why they didn't mention it in the description.

It does swing open. It attaches to the wall on both sides and there is metal hardware on the sides that latches to the wall hardware. But it isn't particularly sturdy or easy (for an adult) to latch and unlatch. Overall, it's an okay swing gate for a low traffic area but maybe not for an area where it would need to open and close frequently or where it may be left open.

No. The pressure applied after connecting the pressure stoppers will close the gate. The directions clearly state this. Read them.

No, the lock is at the top. There is a piece that flips down to prevent the gate from opening one direction or the other. You can put them both down at the same time which will act like a lock, but you have to manually manipulate these; they will not open when you open the top lock.

No. Gate works with tension. If not a straight tight fit it may not close properly.

Yes, there is a little button on the outside of the gate that you push up or down to open or lock the latch on top.

When you open the gate to walk through, it just swings. It doesn't have a latch that keeps it open if that's what you're talking about :)

No. I wish it did but it does not have a latch or anything to keep the gate open. You can keep it "unlocked" but have to make sure you do not let the gate slam or it will automatically lock.

It swings back shut automatically. Depending on how level mine is (my teenagers always knock it just enough to make it unlevel - we only use it for our dogs) it doesn't always latch automatically the way it should when it's level. But it is very easy to open and latch shut. Easy to do one handed. If it's not latched shut, my dog can open it and get through. LOL. But I love the gate!! It works great and we are very rough on it.

Yes it does. It's a small tab that swivels in between the wires that hold it closed. My three dogs have not been able to open the gate and even if they lifted the tab (not likely) they could not raise the door.

If you install it not quite vertically aligned, with the top bar tilted towards the side of the room you want the gate to stay open, it will stay open due to gravity. To shut it you'll have to push the gate to catch the bottom latch, but the top gate latch may not close then. A child will not be able to open the gate, because you have to lift the door to disengage the bottom latch. I just installed it yesterday and it does not close. I intend to correct it today though, as it is not recommended.

The gate opens in both directions, but latches when it swings closed so it does not swing past closed

I wish I could help you with this. I have the same gate and can open it and close it with one hand. Is it possible that it may not be alligned right?
