Can this gate be use to make a 90 degree bend around a staircase? I need to mount the gate to the walls in a "L" shape.

Yes, I believe the gate can be installed at all angles including 90 degrees. It's just a matter of getting the panel lengths right.

Yes. This gate is wonderful and I always get the question, "where did you find that gate?".

The mounting parts are at both extremes of the gate. They can't be adjusted so I don't think it can be mounted on anything shorter that the length of the gate unfortunately. I had trouble getting it to fit on my stair rail (height-wise) because it's almost exactly the same height.

Space wise, yes it should work. HOWEVER, a small pet (my puppy) escaped thru the 4 1/2 inch space at the bottom, where the base of the crooked bar attaches to the extra piece. I would not recommend this gate for small pets at all. I had to block my with acrylic sheets.

It could be tricky mounting at an angle...the trick would be ensuring the latch surface/mount point is perpendicular to the gate latch (The knobs that extend off the end of the gate must be able to be able to meet at a 90 degree to the latch mount point)

It should handle the slight angle because gate material being flexible . I would recommend mounting the hook side on your posts . You may need your own screws since I think the provided may stick through your post . Overall it's a great gate we have 2.

If the question is "Can it be used on a door frame that leads to stairs, I would think so, depending on what the door jam looks like. When the door is closed, is there an additional inch or two of flat wood? You would need about an inch of width to mount the door. You would need this space on both sides of the door frame (i.e., the side with your door hinges, and the side the door latches to.

The locking mechanism does not work on an angle, BUT you could mount the gate hinge on the angled wall. As long as the locking side and lock strip meet well it should work.

I would not recommend it. I have two of these and have used both bigger extensions on one of the gates. Its a little shaky at the joints. There are longer gates.

I would say it is capable of bending to 90 degrees. However, it will take tremendous amount of effort to do so and it will be dangerous

I use mine for a 3' opening and it works perfectly because the sides bend in to keep the gate standing. While it would stretch across your opening, I don't know how sturdy it would be w/o having the sides tilt in. If it were me, I wouldn't do it for the space that big.

It depends on how curvy the door is. The product is hard, but I think it should be able to bend a little bit, but not much.

It is somewhat flexible but I wouldn't bend it 90 degrees. I think it would break or crack.

I think so also. It is fairly stiff and a 90 degree turn will have to be gentle and a little wide but I see no reason it will not work well in a wall.

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.

The hinges are covered, so I don't think you could do anything like that. I just tied a piece of ribbon (string would work too, I just happened to have ribbon closer to me at the time), to the top by the handle, and made a loop on the other end so we can loop it over the door handle. When the door is open, it holds the gate door open pretty well. Sometimes eventually it'll slowly pull the door closed a bit, but with a small door stop or if we tightened the hinges on the door, it probably wouldn't do that. If that doesn't sound like a do-able option, then this gate probably isn't for you.

Unsure of your application. It won't make a 90 degree turn. To give you an idea of how pliable it is, it comes shipped in a box coiled like a snake.

Hi I am not sure but gate is well made I don't think it will be a problem to use at top of stairs I don't have it At top of stairs I separate rooms with it
