Does it matter whether the gate opens inward or outward?

Hi the openers will work ether way but the openers will be protected better by them being on the inside and gates opening in.

No, works either way. You can go the the Aleko web site and download the installation manual.

No. Inside doors and exterior doors typically have different pin diameters .interior is 3/16, exterior 1/4. Typically.The other concern is the larger cylinder body of the device can interfere with the trim/molding around the door. This really depends on the type of hinge and the trim used around the door. The cylinder cap comes off which will save a little room, but no guarantees. Best just to try one and they work well when they fit. (edited for spelling errors - whoops!)

It will work either door, you may have to get creative when mounting the actuator

To be honest i am not sure... i think depends how is the entrance (shape)...

Yes. That is how I use it. It has two gates, one for vertical and one for horizontal.

No, the hinges are on the sides so when you open the doors they swing out. So whichever side was not against the wall would be able to open but not the other.

No it doesn't matter. You can put either side to the inside or the outside. I love these things. They are so cool. A few of mine broke but it took very strong winds to make it happen. They are worth the money.

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

Yes the direction the door opens can be changed. Door is designed to move the hinges and handle to the opposite side.

Most, but not all. When the entrance has two narrow doors, you would need to open both. It's the easiest to fold though and very easy to ride (can do with one hand, very responsive). Whenever it doesn't fit we just fold it.

Yes it is an awsome gate. I bought two for my daycare. It adjust easily by using the tool provided it just turns to the tightness you need. Getting ready to by another!

As long as you have a post on the side the gate opens you should be ok. It's fairly slim.

Yes, depending on the weight of the gate and the proper sizing and number of hinges.

kids are smart! The way the gate functions to open is by pulling the gate upwards(this happens via the hinge mechanism) and then opening by swinging in either direction(inward or outward). There is a "latch" that also works well to keep shut provided it is set up properly between the door frame

Tough question. As you are aware, it depends on the weight. The weight depends on how much wood is in the gate.The wood would also get heavier when wet which may require an adjustment of the sensitivity control.

I'm not totally clear on the question. We do have the gate slightly angled at the top of the stairs because of the bannister location so that there is not such a gap between the bottom of the gate and the top of the top step. We have the gate opening currently over the steps because of the space in my house at the top of the stairs. So, the latches are on the wall side--slightly further in than they would be if they were directly across from the locations where the gate is attached on the bannister side. Not sure if this helps. I have loved the gate and feel it is very secure. I have not had any worries about my daughter falling. Plus, with the gate attached further in on the wall side, there is less space for her to try and slide her legs underneath (which she has a couple of times). When I decide to change the direction of the gate opening, I'll just have to move the pins on the latch side so the gate will open into the hallway. (I'll probably do this when my daughter is a little bigger and older and more able to do stairs safely on her own, if the gate remains in use.)

Yes, you can open the gate from either side; that's the whole point of this latch. I don't know why they didn't mention it in the description.
