Does this gate have a manual open and close (one that does not use the lock). I just want it to be able to open and close manually.

Yes. You can make it so you don't have to use the lock. And that is probably the best way. The lock is overkill for preventing small children

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.

Yes, there is an option that you can switch on for the gate to close itself after it is open. The duration is programmable.

I think the lock is coordinated with the signal to open the gate, never tried it with other openers than the one that is sold with the gate hardware though.

This gate has a small hole that the gate fits into to close. To open you pull up slightly and the door can than be swung in either direction.

No.. it does not have that type of function. You will have to open the door manually. Sorry..

The lock will always use power when it is locked. I found that it would not hold a screwdriver tight enough that I could not pull it right off, so I couldn't imagine how it could keep someone from pushing open my gate. I bought the "Estate" lock, I have been very pleased with its easy working mechanical latch system. I only uses power to open, and is not going to let the gate open if someone tries to force it.

Yes you can swing it shut but only if it's securely installed. I close the gate by clicking it together when I can but half the time I kick the gate with my feet and it clicks shut. We hired a handy man to install it properly and it now auto-locks by just swinging it.

It swings back shut automatically. Depending on how level mine is (my teenagers always knock it just enough to make it unlevel - we only use it for our dogs) it doesn't always latch automatically the way it should when it's level. But it is very easy to open and latch shut. Easy to do one handed. If it's not latched shut, my dog can open it and get through. LOL. But I love the gate!! It works great and we are very rough on it.

The gate would have to be spring loaded to shut. This lock is great but the gate hinges need to be spring loaded you can buy these from Amazon.

Yes, but you do have a manual release for the door so you can open and close it.

Yes, there is a switch to close gate automatically. there is also a timer to set the close time.

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

Thank you for your question. The way the Auto-Close Gate is designed, the door will not stay open by itself.

Once you secure the gate in place the latch will close. The gate needs the pressure from the wall/stairs to cinch up the gate. If the gate doesn't latch, you do not have the gate tight enough. Good luck! It's a great gate!

YES, comes with a large key type that turns and releases the gate to be able to move. This has happened to me when Electric had been shut off. Keep the key handy that's all. I have had mine installed at least 3 years and it still works every time I push my remote. The only thing remote takes those special batteries which I keep in Freezer...replace only two times...! I love this opener...

Mine doesn't automatically shut. You have to lift and close the gate door each time. It will stay open if you open it.
