Will this prevent the door from being lifted out of its track?

No. The bar simply keeps the operable door panel from sliding open (keeps door from sliding down the track).

Yeah, it does.... if you pass the handle through the loop that the door stop is attached to, the whole thing slides down and cinches to the bar, with no way to slide off. It's really secure. My JGXT has a label sewn to it that shows how to do this, and I think they have it on the website too.

Yes it will not allow the door to move up or down it is just locked in place

No, the magnet in this isn't strong enough to stay on anything vertical. It would simply fall off the door.

If you're asking what I think you are you can place it closest to the hinge side of the door along the top. This prevents the door from having very much mobility and then fingers wouldn't be pinched by the hinges/hinge side of the door. I hope that helped.

I don't think so. It has to have room to go over top of door. It would mess up the tracking.

Maybe I'm not understanding your question, but I don't know what the point would be if you install it against glass...how would the dog get out? The door actually sits in the same track as your sliding door and is held in place with pressure. Although there are screws you can use to hold it in, they really aren't necessary as the pressure alone is quite strong. I have a large Husky and he flies in and out of there constantly without mishap.

I am skeptical that it would. The way it works is that it slides between the door frame and the door so if there were no frame I am thinking it would fall off the top if yanked on at all.

It's a magnet on the top of the door. I haven't had any problems with mine staying closed.

I don't see this working: the track is mounted to the top (slatted) part of the door; measuring down 40" from the top lands you in the middle of a slat (above where the solid portion of the door starts).

Not exactly a locking mechanism, but a spring loaded latch that secures the door and locks it in the track. Hope that helps.

It would not work for that situation. It is designed to close a door, not slow it down.

No, it simply keeps the door from swinging closed. It might slow them down but it certainly won't prevent it. I bought it because my doors like to close themselves.

I have this shoulder pulley and yes it does stay on the door our door whether it is open or closed. One had grip is a little heavier due to the grip one one, so we hang the lighter grip around the door knob and it works great. Hope you have as good luck as I have with this pulley.

I'm not an expert, but I know that getting the balance just right so the door neither falls down or pulls itself up is pretty tricky. Therefore I suspect that a longer length may not work well through the whole range of motion. This is a pretty tricky operation and can be dangerous. If you are not sure you should contact a professional installer.

I have it set to just reach the closed position but not to overcome the door latch and lock the door. In this case it is a soft close. If you increase the tension to close the door until it latches, it will probably accelerate somewhat due to the momentum gained while it swings shut.

Not sure this will move with the door. Rubber on multiple sides. Perfect for keep a door open. I do use it on a carpeted floor but really wanted something to keep the door open.
