Does this gate come with a piece to keep the gate from swinging both directions when located at the top of the stairs?

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

It swings both ways but locks in place when shut. If you mean a piece like a stopper no.

Yes it is included. We've been using it this way for a few months and it works great. Install was simple too. Highly recommend this gate.

This gate does not swing it slides open. It is extra wide but I do not recommend this gate I have it. It is hard to slide it open when holding a baby because you have to unlatch it with one hand.

Nope. You will need to put in an eye round in on the side you want to lock. If you use two on the wall side then you've only got to put one in on the side that latches. The top things on both ends can be released so the gate can swing in either direction.

It comes with a top track which helps to guide the door and to helps it to hang right. No bottom track. Top bottom, side track for the door to attach to the door frame and the other side track has the magnet in it to keep the door closed. I have had no problems with the door. I installed it between the bath room and the bedroom to keep the light from disturbing my wife who is sleeping while I was getting ready for work.

It does not need to be in the middle. When I (actually my handy husband) installed it at the base of my stairs it worked best as the first piece. You can put it in any section along the gate that works for you.

not that I have figured out. We have to prop something in front of the door to keep it open. You can hold it (keep it from slamming shut) and it will not lock and you can just open it with your hand instead of stepping on the pedal to unlock and open. It does swing both ways tho depending upon which side you step on the pedal. We like it very much!

Yes the door will swing both ways. It has locking tabs on both bottom corners to lock it. when unlocked it swings either direction and has a magnet in the frame and door that will hold it shut but the pet can easily open from either side.

There are these small "cups" that can be screwed into the wall or post (the gate then pressure mounts into these cups) and these supposedly make the gate safe for the top of the stairs. But, I personally wouldn't do this and would get a different type of gate.

No. It is either locked or unlocked. Both sides of the gate are the same setting. The locking mechanism sets both sides: either both locked or both unlocked.

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.

Each corner of the gate has an adjustable bolt with a flat rubber end. The bolts can be adjusted separately. This is a good gate.

Yes, the directions include that option. The only caution is if the door is pushed all the way open while the unit is down, it may get damaged since you have to lift the rod up at the back a little first when closing the unit. So you may want to install a door stop if you do that, even use a moveable one depending on if the door opens only 90 degrees instead of 180. I already tossed the extra stuff that came with it, but I think it has a bracket that goes over the top of the door so it does not rely completely on screws into the door to hold it up. I love these things. I have two.

The gate is attached to the wall by 4 different pieces.(2 on each side) when those pieces are there, there are 2 poles one on each side that slides through the wall piece. It would be a pain to undo one side to swing it one all the time. If that is what you are thinking. If you needed to do that once in a blue moon then yes. On a daily basis of swinging it open... No.

I was referring to the locking pieces that move up and down. If the gate should be dropped closed the plastic locking pieces can break. We also had problems with the rails that the door moves along seperating from the frame. It's a good idea and many people have been pleased with it. We were more displeased with the poor customer service(they sent the wrong replacement parts and would not correct the mistake then stopped responding altogether)

We use ours at the top of the stairs and have never had an issue. We have an extra-wide staircase, so this is the only gate that works for the size.

No, it does however have indentions in the bottom piece where you can punch stakes into the ground. I elected to place stakes on the outside and use small rope to tie it down. This disabled the front doors, however I only wanted it for trash collection, needing only the top door.
