does this work with vinyl panel gates?

I think it will work on any gate as long as there is a strong place to attach the arm end to the gate.

I can't say for sure. There is a 2" gap between each slat. Also it will depend on how much gap you need between your wall and the start of the gate. The gate expands and adjusts for the width of your door/wall.

Yes. I installed mine on a double panel door. I filled in the gap with wood filler where the door indented for the panel. It is strictly a cosmetic issue and work work just fine without the filler but I wanted it to look smooth.

I don't know. What I do know is if the gate on your lot has a Linear opener with DIP switches this will work. If you need a remote that will "Learn" codes, this will not work.

The gate is attached with 4 small brackets so as long as the surface has a flat area approximately 1 1/2 inches square it will work.Ive had mine for months and would highly recommend it.

Yes if gate is a pedestrian gate and not for vehicle access. There is a different opener for that.

it does not work...I made the mistake of not getting the correct extension for the auto close gate. Also, even with the matching gate and extension piece, i had to reinforce at the joint with a C channel as it became loose

I don't see why not. Mine is mounted in a hallway where the distance between the walls is wider than at floor level distance between the baseboard. Therefore, if your banister is the right height (at the top) it would work. Check the height of the solid most part of your banister to make sure it is the same height of the gate frame.

I installed mine on a six-foot wide Steel gate it works great. I think it would work okay on a wooden gate also

I'd suggest getting the adapter. I tried to use a gate with the same set up (wall on one side banister on the other) and it was not very secure. After putting the adapter on, it was as secure as having it set up between 2 flat surfaces.

It should. My gate is longer than yours, but not as high. It is very heavy and the ALEKO works great.

Yes I have. We have vinyl posts and didn't want to drill into them, so we zip-tied 2x4s to the posts and drilled into that. Our porch is covered, so the gate isn't exposed to all the elements, but it has held up well for over a year now.

I believe the gate adapter needs a flat surface on the banister for it to be attached securely. Otherwise, it will most likely just end up twisting around out of place. Most wrought iron railings I see have skinny round banisters but if yours is different and you can find flat parts (even thin ones) then it might work for you.

Yes if you use the spacers that come with it. We looked a long time for a really nice/good gate and so happy we found this one. We liked it so much that we purchased another one and we are ready to buy our third.

As designed, yes. But I used a pair of (about) 6"x30" x 3/4" boards, put the screw eyes in them, hooked one to each end and made the gate stand-alone. Wider boards would add stability. This approach won't work as a strong barrier, but does discourage my min schnauzers from entering restricted rooms :)

No, I do not think it will work. Ours is on a very very slight angle because we did not use a level when installing and it has some slack in the gate mesh making it not as tight across. Still works but it is frustrating when trying to latch and unlatch.

I have one of these panels and it does hook up directly to my duel Mighty Mule gate opener Model 502. It has worked out and kept the batteries charged. So far this season, the temperature here in Northeastern Nevada has dropped to 14 degrees F with no ill effects.
