Does it work for outward swinging gate?

Yes, just install on the inside side. Our gate swings in. Spring is installed on outside. Works fine.

That's how I'm using it. But the spring has to be on the outside... the hinge side.

Definitely. Mine is mounted on a wooden gate. It was easy to mount following the instructions. It also has mounting instructions for chain link and other metal gates.

no,not at all. It'll stop a door from swinging closed in a wind or for a door installed unlevel that tends to swing on its own.

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.

My gate is only 3 ft. wide so I don't have direct experience but believe it will work. Make sure you follow their instructions for taking the weight off the gate before setting the center screw.

Not really. You can mount it as a swing gate, but it would be hard to fasten if the bannister is in the way.

I don't see why not, although you might have to be creative to mount it. You should be able to bolt it directly to the gate. We are using ours on a chain-link fence/gate and it works great!

I don't seem any problem with it working on any type of gate material as long as it is attached with appropriate fasteners.

No. Gate works with tension. If not a straight tight fit it may not close properly.

Not unless you angled the receiving part of the latch the same as the gate. (Putting a piece of wood under it or something.) Not sure it's the best gate for an angle but I could be wrong.

Sorry I'm not really sure. I have a munchkin gate and it worked great. I had another gate (sorry I don't remember what kind) and the holes were too small in the gate for these.

Attached to a good solid fence post on both sides it could support a light weight gate. Definitely not stand alone. It's a little top heavy, PVC is flexible and itsways a bit. I have mine over steps and the hand rails inside the arbor add a lot of support.

Not 100% sure! I used them on 2 4" wide x 8' high gates and they worked great. I would suggest you try it on one gate for a few months and if it works well, then install it on the other. Make sure you mount it on the hinged side and I would recommend that you do not exceed a 45 degree angle. Hope this helps!

It depends on what you mean by a gate. If it's a chain link sort of idea this would not work at all. If it's more of solid wall sort of fence, it could be used on it. Keep in mind that it would need to be very sturdy, solid, and have the ability to adequately support the strikeplate. It would have to be more of a door than a gate...

It should with no problem. Most doors are 36" and most all swinging doors are solid wood. I installed it for a client on a 36" door and there have been no problems.

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 :)

This unit is set up to use on a swinging gate, I don't think there would be any way to use it on a sliding gate as the throw on the arm would be way to short to open anything more than about a 3 foot gate.
