Could this gate be used outside: to keep a dog on a porch?

We do not recommend using this gate outside. Certain elements such as sun, rain and wind may cause the gate to crack or warp over time.

Yes. I actually bought it to lock my dog in my kitchen. As it is plastic, it may be used outdoor
167808
I would say yes because it's mostly plastic. The more it's expanded the more flimsy it is.

Yes, if you have the ability to install the gate strip and closure strip. The strips usually are screwed into the wall and could be fastened the same way on a porch.

Yes I still like the gate, bought it for,a,boxer puppy, however a chihuahua puppy may be able to fit through the gap where it mounts to the wall.

It could be... like previous person said it may rust. Search for cardinal gates and you will find the exact type of gate made for outdoors... doesn't rust as easily. And comes in different colors. It is a very sturdy gate! Sturdiest I have come across for its use. Previous poster stated she had to readjust. Yes... this may happen... but not a horrible alternative to a broken gate, which most others types of gates would be.

Oh....welll... Reading the other responses I guess I stand corrected. I use my gate for a dog so there is no issue with them figuring out how to work it.

I would think so. I would just make sure the post you are mounting to is sturdy enough to accommodate the swinging gate.

The gate is can be placed by 2 turnable pressure pads on each end of the gate. You can elevate the gate to allow a dog to go underneath it.

Possibly. Mine was too rigid for y pets to feel comfortable using and when it got windy it flew open. I prefer the pliable version of these doors.

Yes it can be used, inside and outside. I have mine now out (patio deck) just make sure when it rains you may cover it with its lid otherwise you can leave it open and ready to be used by your pet. Hope this helps.

Yes. I use mine exclusively outside, though it's on my deck, under cover of the eaves. It could safely get wet, though. You'd just have to dry off the two platforms and the floor before putting pets back in there again. The cage itself is stainless steel.

Probably not. I wasn't impressed with this gate. It nearly pulled out of the wall the first time we opened it. I followed the directions to the letter. It was very hard to use in an area with a lot of traffic.

I haven't tried. After my son ripped it out of the wall, I use it as a temp dog gate when I come home from the grocery store.

Yes, if you need to remove it frequently such as to move large objects or roll something through. It is more secure with the cups installed. We use ours to control doggy access to various parts of the house. I would hesitate to leave the gate unsecured if a larger child or animal might push it out of the doorway.

This unit would not be practical to mount on the outside of a door, particularly if expesed to the weather. Also, it could easily be removed, so there is a security problem. Technically, it could do that whiich describe.

Not outside, unless you had a crate pad or blanket to use. Make sure your dog is under 40 lbs. or he/she won't be able to fit through the door

The gate is spring-loaded so it is easy to put up and down. The gate does not attach anything. The gate does not breakdown for easy storage. You have to store it completely assembled or you can take the gate completely apart and assemble each time put that would be a pain. I use it to keep the animals on the front porch so I just store it against the house.

I highly doubt it.. but dont kno for sure. We have 1 sm. Dog n lg. Dog. Keeps them seperated well. Its a good gate.. best wishes..

It's a pretty solid gate, and part of what keeps it in the door is the base that fits in the track. I think stacking them could lead to a dangerous situation with the dog knocking the top gate loose. Also the top of the gate is not flush, so the top gate would not be resting on a flat surface. I think you'd be better off looking for another solution for your jumper! I got this gate for my dog, and she has not tried to get out. (65# German shepherd).
