Can it be used with the handle on the outside of a door/gate that opens out? Like a shed door.

It will not work on a door that opens out. I didn't realize that when I bought mine.

if this door knob is the only source of locking the door then no you can't But if your using it with a deadbolt and you don't want to be locking two things like me then yes you can use it for a exterior door

I believe if you are able to open a car door using the handle then you should not have a problem with this. Also, in time using this may in fact help strength your grip. I pray this helps and you are able to use it! You might initially use both hands to help too if you are very weak. God Bless You!

There is a small pull bottom that you use to pull the door, it looks much better than a regular door handle..

I'm sure the handle can be put on the other side. That would work if you can make the adjustment of having it on the left side.

Technically, yes. However, it wouldn't be practical and may ultimately damage the structural integrity of the shed. Hope this helps.

yes it will you will have to turn the handle toward the open. it will work find. I love mine.

I suspect so, although I did not do it. The handle is secured by screws which can be removed, the handle turned around and screws replaced. That would allow the use of the other hand...

In my case, no! Works good for me! But you just take the handle never touch other part .

The hinges are covered, so I don't think you could do anything like that. I just tied a piece of ribbon (string would work too, I just happened to have ribbon closer to me at the time), to the top by the handle, and made a loop on the other end so we can loop it over the door handle. When the door is open, it holds the gate door open pretty well. Sometimes eventually it'll slowly pull the door closed a bit, but with a small door stop or if we tightened the hinges on the door, it probably wouldn't do that. If that doesn't sound like a do-able option, then this gate probably isn't for you.

Yes if gate is a pedestrian gate and not for vehicle access. There is a different opener for that.

You can but the thumb recess is not very deep for larger hands I think it could be a problem. Hammer and Icepick seem to be better suited to the handle.

It surely can be mounted outside, I don't know about opening gates since I am using it to open a 12ft. shop door.

Probably could, but I would not. The handles are a friction snap in and the door would need to be closed (solid rather than moving) in order to put the handle in place or remove it.

The handle is a bit heavy (stainless steal - which is great!) but I think if you use some strong glue or a double sided tape like "command" strength it could work. I love mine! Good luck!

Yes. I believe you can. It might take a little bit of engineering to do so however. I've actually thought about It myself. The handle comes off By loosening a set screw.

This unit is set up to use on a swinging gate, I don't think there would be any way to use it on a sliding gate as the throw on the arm would be way to short to open anything more than about a 3 foot gate.
