how wide is the gate for a person to pass through (it looks a little narrow)?

The opening is plenty wide to walk through for average adult (we range from 5'8" - 6'3" in height); approximately 20" in width - the gate, not us. ;)

I would estimate it to be around 20 inches. It's more than sufficient for walking through. I'm VERY pleased with the gate. I love that it's easy to open, closes on its own, and swings in both directions. A friend of mine got a different brand against my advice and regrets it. Her's has a narrow walk through area and it's difficult to open with your hands full. The Dreambaby is MUCH better. Good luck!

I agree with the other answers, approx. 20" opening; no problem for my husband who weighs around 220.

This gate is expandable and the smallest opening is about 24 and a half inches. So it should work great for you.

The gate needs to come down completely to pass through. It is a tension gate, not permanent.

Fits nicely in a regular size doorway even with one side folded. Does not fit in a 4.5 to 5 ft entryway, it is too short. Overall I like the gate.

This is a question.....Do you have any gates with walk thru gate is 22" as I have my mom who uses walker and needs to go thru

Nearly the width of the gate. The hinge and pressure joints take up only 4 inches or so altogether

I don't understand the question...The whole gate opens on the hinges and you can buy extensions to make it wider.

It is 30" wide and 60" long fully expanded. That should easily fit thru any gate. I didn't measure, but it's about waist height when full of leaves or clippings. Rolls easily on approx 6@ diameter wheels.

My hips are quite wide and I can get through. You can always go through by turning a bit to the side. I think a wider gate door wouldn't have enough stablity for a standard doorway sized opening. The side panels would be quite slim, but they are the ones the hold the pressure.

It can accommodate a door up to 2 1/4 inches wide. At least, that is what mine is measuring.

With the panels, it easily fits a 5 ft opening. The actual gate is maybe 28-32 inches.

no problem...you can slide the gate and set it at any width...mine is a total of 33.5 inches including hinge,etc...I could easily narrow it by 5 inches or so.

Sorry No.... the gate alone is 52"'s and there are fixed sides on both left and right.

I just checked the other question/ answers for the size opening and one reviewer was adamant that the widest opening for this gate is 40 inches. You definitely need to look for a longer gate. It will not be secure.

I measured the actual opening of the gate and it is almost 19 inches. I'm a large woman and an currently pregnant also, so I usually have to walk through it sideways, but I still love the way it works.

Most of the gate's bars are about 4" wide- the widest bars are about 4.5"- so I don't think that would be an issue at all.

There is no gate to walk through, but the sides unhinge and fold in so you can go through the side. Also the gate is fairly low and can be stepped over. (I am 5'10" and it is not a problem to just step over it.)
