Can the gate be set to remain open instead of automatically closing all the time?

I don't think so. We stuck a medium size rock in a colorful tissue box, and use it to prop the door open during the day. Then we let it close at night to keep the kitty off our bed. By the way, this item is the same as the Bindaboo Pet Gate but today on Amazon is $21 cheaper than that one.Pretty sure they ship from the same Chinese factory.since the pictures match feature for feature.

Hi sherry. It doesn't automatically stay open, but we just use a bungi cord to hold it open. It's very simple but it works.

I don't think so but I put a piece of pool noodle over the latching portion at the bottom of the gate so it doesn't completely latch when the gate swings shut. It makes it easier to get in and out of the room when your hands are full and still keeps the dog out of the nursery.

We blocked our when we wanted it to remain open. The gates not very heavy so a lite door stop will do.

Sadly no, default is to have it auto close. I used a bungie cord to do this though

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. The gate should latch properly. I have the same siuation. The only issue we have is in opening the gate. The attached pin on the hinge side often pops out of the hole. It's an annoyance but not a big deal since it goes back in easily.

No, it doesn't. I think that it's automatically closing makes it a little safer, because it can't be inadvertently left open. If need be, it would be easy to prop it open with a door stop at the bottom

No if it shuts hard enough the gate latches itself and it is completely locked.

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

I never noticed but I just tested it. The door will always swing back into a closed position but does not always "click" in a locked mode. If you are looking to keep it wide open from time to time this might be a nuisance. We always need it shut so it's fine for that purpose. Hope that helps :)

I don't believe you can close it at all and "lock it" without scrambling the combo. So if you want to leave it open and scrambled and then just have them click it closed on their way out you should be good to go. I have 3 of these on outside fence gates and we have been very happy with them.

You can install it with a push button on the inside to open it. That's what I did. Yes it automatically locks when you close the gate.

The gogogate itself does not open and close gates, it sends a signal to a device that already has that feature, like an electronic garage door opener. So if your outside gate is hooked up electronically, it's a matter of wiring the device. you may want to check out http://www.gogogate.com/

I would have to say no. The gate top/bottom have to be level in order for the gate to lock closed.

You can set it to close automatically when powered off or to stay open unless someone pushes the close button

We have the gate at the top of our stairs. It closes automatically and "locks". To open again you'll need to lift the whole door up and swing it open. Think of the lever like a deadbolt on your door. It closes and locks by itself but if you want to really seal it then you'll need to manually flip the "deadbolt" down.

No. It's gravity loaded so when you shut the door it automatically latches because of gravity.

You can set it to close automatically if you choose. The default setting requires remote activation. The electronics are very user friendly.

It clicks under a mechanism that is attached to the opposite wall. You have to squeeze two buttons together and push down simultaneously to open the gate. It stays closed beautifully.

I had this same problem. It really was not a problem at all. All you have to do is make sure the gate is squared up. Make sure the top is directly over the bottom, use a level if you have one. Make small adjustments until you hear a click when the gate swings closed.
