Can you go in and out of the gate? I do not see an opening.

No. You need to lift up the bar and take gate aside to walk through and then set it up again. It is a draw back, but I still like it because it is simple and easy and reasonably priced. I do, however, admit that I use this gate on openings that I don't go in and out of very often.

No, there is no pass-through. You need to step over, or disengage the gate.

The gate is almost impossible to open with the provided slider mechanism. The arm latches onto a series of notches which adjust the width. This works well to fix the width, but makes it very awkward to open/close. I gave up on that after a few tries. I now slide it across the floor and walk through that way. I then slide it back in place.

It can be left open which is a nice feature. My last gate would always shut and we ha to use a bungee cord to keep it open.

No, impossible. You need one hand to continually press and turn the locking lever down to release the lock, and the other hand to unhook and support the fabric section as you roll it to open or shut. You can't let go of the gate as you are opening it, otherwise it all flops down, and twists up as it reels in, which will then give you another problem, because if that happens it won't roll out flat with an equal tension top and bottom the next time you try to close it.

Unfortunately not. It takes 2 hands to open or close this gate. If I had known that I would not have bought it.

You have to go over it. I wanted one that opened too, however, this gate has been wonderful!

I don't think so. I was looking for a wider gate with a walk-thru, Our needs are different.

Yes, but the gate is spring loaded so it will not remain open. It would need to be propped open with something, otherwise it just closes and latches by itself.

It just slips into a little groove. You gently lift up on the gate and it falls into place. To open it, you use your thumb to push in a piece of plastic and gently lift up on the gate to lift it out of the groove. It is very easy to use.

The lock on the gate needs a key to open on the outside. The lock can be opened by turning the knob on the inside. To exit you don't need an extra button on the inside.

No, you have to take the whole gate down or step over it. It's one lever bar to unlock it but that bar is so flimsy that you neary break it every time you risk taking down the gate.My mother has back issues, so it's hard for her to bend, and she can't lift her legs without falling over... this gate is useless when she's here because she can't step through it. I would not buy it again, it's cheaply made, I've already had one break, and it's no use if you have family that need to be able to walk through, not step over.

Yes, gate is easy to open. I simply lift up the lath and move the gate forward or backwards to enter.

No the lock is on the top of the gate door. You just slide it to the side and lift a little. There's no outside lock. It doesnt open all that easily but we've made it work just fine.

There is a door but my grandson doesnt use it. he small and I pick him up and put him in and take him out. But if you open the door it would be easy for exit and entry. we have the red wagon with red canopy and that does have working door on right side. Hope I was able to help

There is not an opening, but it is easy to go in and out of it. I am 48 and I sleep up there when I come home late from a business trip and my son sleeps in my bed. This is a very solI'd unit and a very good value.

It opens both ways. You lift the door up to unlock it and can swing it to the front or back. It is a wonderful gate and I highly recommend it!

Depends on what you mean by open. It has 2 knobs on the bottom so you can: (1) open away from you only, (2) open towards you only, (3) open both ways, or (4) not open, w/c is helpful when installing the gate. What you can do is switch the knobs on the bottom while the gate is open, so, it does not close completely. If you are expecting it to stay open at 45 degrees, it does not have that mechanism.

You "could" but the gates are not designed to connect. Also the hinges tend to be very loose, to elaborate if you look at the product picture that dog could easily push his way through that gate unless you faced it the other way. If you connected two without some connection mechanism (Screw, Tape) I would image the same thing could happen.
