Is there a stop or something to prevent the hinged door from swinging too far inward or outward or does the hinge limit the swing completely?

The design of the hinges doesn't allow the door to swing inward, and it allows 90 degrees of outward opening.

There is no stop, it will swing either way if you install it as per their instructions the then the bottom rubber drip rail will rub enough against the top of the tub and that seems to be enough to hold the door in place. I like the fact that it swings out far enough as I enjoy soaking in the tub and it also makes it easy when cleaning the tub. If you have a toilet bowl close to the unit as I do you might want to make certain the bottom of the door clears the top of the bowl, for mine to clear I lift the seat.

There are 2 side hinges to hold the glass, but careful swinging it for it may become un-hinged, depending how secure it's been installed. I had my uncle installed this, but he ran into problems due to Centex's cheap home-building-cutting-corners standards. He also added a door stopper - screwed into the tub to prevent over-swinging the glass door.

Hank, the bottom anti water strip helps to prevent the door from swinging inward. When the door is closed and the vinyl of that sweep touches the tub edge it creates friction that stops the door from over-closing into the tub area.

Yes, put the handle and locking mechanism on the room side of the in-swing door; install the latch bolt so that its taper is turned to strike the strike plate (keeper) so that the latch bolt will retract when it strikes the keeper. If there is an outer door, be sure the knob on the in-swing door does not hit or interfere with the lockset on the outer door.

No there isn't. It's functionality is mainly a spring action that makes the door swivel shut after opening.

Thank you for your inquiry.You can install hinges to swing inside or outside. It will not swing both ways at the same time. Kind Regards!

If your talking about the swinging door, just pry it. It feels like your going to break it, then it just pops open

Yes. That's exactly how I used it except the door (conventional solid core) swings out. I covered it and the wall around it with bead board and it virtually disappeared. To figure out the best hinge swing and how best to align the headboard joints, I built a mock up first.

I am not sure if there is a lock, but I have not had a problem with it swinging open. It has stayed in any position I have placed it in and I use it quite frequently.

It doesn't limit the door from opening all the way UNLESS you don't leave enough space for it. In the directions they recommend you leave at least 3.5 inches between the HINGES you are going to mount the item on and the wall behind it. If you leave less space than this, the door will not be able to open all the way. Also check the wall behind the door for molding (ex: chair rail) that may leave less than 3.5 inches, because these also will get in the way.

If I understand your questions... the doors are not rigid in that if you were to grab at the bottom of the door and pull away from the wall the door will move in that direction. They make a roller to place at the bottom of the door to prevent it from swinging more than perhaps 1" or we have fabricated a small metal track for the door bottom to grab on to prevent this. On an interior door it is not an issue, outside the wind can wreck if the bottom is not secured. Hope this helps.

No, there doesn't seem to be a place on the cafe pivot hinge to hang the Wedge-It to prevent the door from closing.

yes it does swings both ways. the only thing i forgot to add about the gate is that handle doesnt close by itsself. you have to manually close it. its like you lift it and close it. there is no extra feature to keep the gate open. the door stays open it doesnt swing back.

No it doesn't hinge. It is a fixed step/pull bar that fits directly into the receiver.

It swings shut automatically, but we use a bungee cord, and can rig it to stay open held by the bungee from one part of the gate to another(or something exterior)

It will not hold the door firmly in one place like a door stop. It can be set to swing the door open or swing the door closed. You can adjust how fast and hard it does this with a set screw. I use one of these hinges in the center of my junky, builder's grade pressed cardboard bathroom door and it gently swings it closed. You can use multiple hinges and set the tension higher for heavier doors or for a more forceful close. Basically, it's just a door hinge with a coil spring on the pin. There is no mechanism on the hinge itself to lock the door in one position. You are just adjusting the tension to open or close the hinge. I think it works well for it's intended purpose.

no,not at all. It'll stop a door from swinging closed in a wind or for a door installed unlevel that tends to swing on its own.

Well, there's a little pin thing (included with the unit) you can stick in a hole in a tab at the bottom of the door that will keep it from (a) swinging open unless you remove the pin, (b) confound a dumb cat or dog that likes to pull at doors, (c) slow down a child intent on opening the door. We have no reason to use it so haven't tried it. I think you probably could use a small padlock stuck through the tab to better lock the door. In other words, there is a mechanism provided, and a clever owner probably improvise a better locking device using their design features.

I think you are looking for something guaranteed to hold the door all the way open. You may want to consider a device that can be locked in the up (open) position. I have seen hinged devices that do that.
