How big is the opening that holds the bed post?

Two and a half inches square. It was plenty big enough for my post and castor.

I Michelle, I measured about the same - actual opening is slighly less than 6 inches, 7 3/4 inside. This is a great piece. Take care.

If you're saying the bed post is 4" thick, then no. Three inches would be a tight fit. But the whole leg of my bed doesn't sit inside the socket, just the wheels supporting my metal bedframe. What if you attached something to the bottoms of your bed posts that WOULD fit inside?

Maybe a half an inch? Sorry for not being sure but, we installed this months ago... But if your door had one of these in it before this will fit it. We couldn't be happier with this. No store sells these and its the only thing to keep our drafts. Very happy with this and so easy to install.

The clip opens to a max of 2 and 1/4 inches. The one I have is clamped firmly to a 1 inch headboard.

The outside diameter of the post on the base is 2" [5.1 cm]. Hope this helps.

The ID of the composite post holder is exactly 3-1/2", so the post has be to just a little less to fit. I found round-corner 4X4s at Home Depot that fit perfectly. The longest length of railing depends on the size, density and quality of the wood used. I found a thrown-away pine bed side frame. It is a 1x4-1/2 and has a 1x1 attached to catch the box mattress. When flipped upside down, it becomes a perfect handle (imagine an upside-down L). The railing is cut flush with the posts and it 5' long and with posts on the bottom and top step, works for 4 steps. I could easily have taken it two or three more steps without worry. The ID of the composite post holder is exactly 3-1/2", so the post has be to just a little less to fit.

The clamp opening is approximately 2 1/4" wide when fully engaged. We have ours clamped to a bunk bed as a reading light. The clamp is slightly weak so as an added measure it is zip tied as well. Hope this is helpful.

Post is threaded vertically and has a bolt which is around 5/16 but looks metric. Nice arrangement.

The post is 1-3/8" diameter. I have been extremely happy with my stand. Well worth the price.

I didn't measure it but it was a tight fit inside my queen platform bed frame. I had to use a rubber mallet on the middle bars to get it in but probably because my bed frame isn't true - hope this helps

I recall it was about 1-1.13" opening. I stopped using it after about a year when it began to rust

Well, amazon asked me to answer your question since I own this product. However they neglected to send me the name of the product or a picture of it... I'm going to have to guess and say the opening is anywhere between 1/2 an inch to 6 feet tall. Wish I could clarify further! (Amazon... Good idea, but this was poorly executed).

I do not think it will open that far. My headboard is not that wide and I could not clip it to my headboard. I clipped it to a shelf behind my bed. Perhaps a very strong person could squeeze the clamp much farther open then I was able to do. It is very tight.

Hi, From the top of the U on the inside to the body of the lock its exactly 1 and 1/8 inch when its closed. Going across at the base from post to post on the inside of the posts its barely 5/8 and outside the posts its 1 and 1/8 inch

The opening is 1 1/2" wide. My son is 1 years old and he can fit his arm through the slats if he turns it sideways.

It is 18 inches from the post itself that fits into the bracket to the loop where anything will hang. The bracket holds the post at a slight outward angle, which gives a bit more space. From the wall proper it is 19 inches. Pay no attention to the bend, that has nothing to do with any measurements. I have a 22" diameter chandelier hanging from mine, but since it hangs from the center of the chandelier, only 11 inches sticks out on either side of the hanger proper. It would take an awfully big planter to be too big for this hanger!
