Can this gate be installed in an angle? I have stairs with a handrail on one side and a wall on another and I don't want to cut the handrail.

I put ours at a slight angle and it latches but not as it should. It makes it hard to open at the angle we have but I like that it is tall and can fit a pretty wide opening.

maybe - you would have to install blocks of wood to the wall behind the railing so the bracket can be installed to it.

As long as the locking brackets are perpendicular to the to the hinge side. You will have to fabricate a way to mount the brackets on an angle.

Not if it isn't an even surface. We have 2 of these gates and they don't work well at all for us. The bottom of our stairs the banister is thicker at the bottom than the top and this gate doesn't adjust for that.

With this gate everything needs to be lined up perfectly for it to latch and open easily. It will not work on an angle or if one side is attached higher than the other. The kit does come with parts that can attach around a substantial spindle to make it into a square surface that the gate can attach to.

Based on my experience with this gate I don't think it would work well at an angle

You wouldn't have to, but we did; because we were installing gates at both the top and bottom of a beautiful wooden staircase. We wanted to be sure the wood of the staircase would be completely protectected. The gates and installation kits worked perfectly...even with all hardwood rails on both sides of the gate. I would recommend researching how other folks did the installation, before buying, that's what we did and the advise/insights were really helpful.

There are two screws on each side to adjust the angle, but if it was mounted crooked, vertically, then no.

If you are asking regarding left side or right side opening then YES. I put it on opposite what the instruction page showed. My gate opened from the other side than what the drawing showed. VERY easy installation.

This gate is a really good option on the stairs and I do recommend it because it's out of the way and doesn't pose a trip hazard when you don't need it. However, as is, you do need to screw the 2 lock clips on the opposite side of the gate into something. Assuming you can't screw them into your metal spindle, you could use a kit to connect the gate to the rod. I used the "No Hole Stairway Baby Gate Mounting Kit By Safety Innovations" that I found here on Amazon. It provides a box type clamp around your spindle and a surface to mount (screw) the gate locks into. It wasn't particularly easy to install the gate or the kit but now that they are installed, they both work great.

Yes, this gate can be mounted in a door way, it does not have to be mounted on any angles to work properly.

This does not work well on an angle due to the way the locking mechanism works. You can screw a 1x6 oak board to the studs and mount to the oak board on the hinged side and still get a nice finished look.

Not sure. We added a piece of trim to the newel post of our stair to satisfy the width requirement and to minimize damaging the post. We are very satisfied with the safety and strength of our installation. We highly recommend this gate. Our grandchildren and elderly parents are safe!

Sorry, I can not help you with that. I really like the gate but I did not have to attach on angle. My suggestion would be try attaching a 2 x 4 piece of wood to the wall and then drill the gate into the wood. It is only a suggestion, I can't be sure if that will solve your problem.

Yes, it has an angle pivot. I was amazed at the ease of installation and am planning to buy more. Good luck with your project.

You can angle it at any of those connecting points...so if you were ok with a curved gate it would work

we purchased the extension that is offered for this gate. You can put it on either side, whichever works best for you. Opening the gate is a little awkward until you get used to lifting the gate back by the hinge then swing it open.

Possibly. You'll need to install a piece of wood or something to attach the one end of the gate too (metal banister side). The directions for this gate are terrible!! I would suggest finding a gate that is tension mounted instead if possible.
