Does this stop at the stair opening? Thanks

No it does not. It also does not work very long. Mine lasted for 3 cleanings and then quit. The company will not reimburse the cost of the O-Duster. I would not recommend purchasing this.

Mine is installed and it does indeed have a stop mechanism. The rod does not pull out. It holds clothes very well and I am very pleased.

Should stop. Mine does. Only thing I don't like is no height adjustment and vibration

Yes, if you pull it towards you it locks open. If you push it back it just opens, then when you let go it shuts off.

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

Jane... No it does not have a stop- you have to tie it off or as they say in sailing terms- belay it.

Yes ot swings both ways. It will stay open on its own, does not need a door stop. It is the best thing I have bought. I have a 230# newbie dog and it keeps him in one room when we need.

No, when the door opens, it does NOT pull the rack out. . . You have to push it back in. The bar across the doorleans on the counter, not the door itself. This is a wonderful unit and have had it for several years and I have neverhad a problem with it.

No, however, when raised, it does stay open until you close it. I have several young grandchildren who have never had a problem when opening this. It does not slam shut on you. Hope this helps.

Yes. There are different extensions to make it fit the area that you need so that you will definitely have a secure gate. Mine is at the top of the stair case and it's very secure and it's a wide staircase and yet I use the smallest extension to the widest part of the staircase.

There is a plastic catch that theoretically is supposed to stop it from swinging over the stairs. However, it doesn't take a great deal of effort to push through. We've had many adults at our house unfamiliar with the gate, push it through and we rush to put it back in place. The gate has catch at the top and bottom. Once it is in place *correctly* at the top and bottom, it does feel sturdy. I like the gate, but it took a ton of time to put together.

No it won't, but it works wonderfully WITH this and it's not difficult to change out. Highly recommend. BUT this is not a good top of stairs gate BECAUSE of the bottom bar, it will cause you to trip. I recommend you purchase a top of stairs gate that will install with screws and will swing open without a bar on the bottom. This gate is best for bottom of stairs or room separation, I love the expansion kits it came with as I could cordon off my dining room area.

The cabinet ooens pretty far but does stop when it gets to the oven handle...never been a problem for my boys as they just open both doors. Shelf inside cabinet, oven and fridge.

Sometimes the gate will not close all the way but it should. I think ours did this but after some use it stopped. Hope that makes sense.

It will stop at two heights- all the way up and like halfway (one section collapsed). I don't know what to tell you if you need one with a handle that stops at exactly a certain height.

Nope. Once you let the door go, it closes. If there is a setting, we don't know about it! I am real sure there is no such setting. We use it on a closet door but I can see where you would need it. Guess you'll have to put something heavy and decorative to slide over with your foot as a door stop!

It is real strange. It is tall but narrow. They some how suck all the air out and make it skinny. But then when open it expands. I would move it up stairs first then open it. You should be fine. But it is a heavy buger.
