Carlson 0930PW Extra-Wide Walk-Thru Gate with Pet Door, White features Lets small pets pass through, while keeping everyone else out Sturdy lead-free, non-toxic, chewproof all-steel construction Easy 1-touch release handle Quick, easy setup Includes 2 extensions to expand gate to 44 inches

 

 

Q:How wide are the gaps between the bars? I have a 6 lb pomeranian. Would she be able to get out through the bars?

A:

Maybe. My cat can just slip right through the bars, so I had to cut up a cardboard box into panels and fasten them to the gate with twisty ties. The gate now looks like some ramshackle zombie fortification from The Walking Dead.

Q:Will it keep babies out? Is the opening small enough to keep a small child out but allow a cat to get through?

A:

My 13 month/20lbs figured out she could crawl through the cat door in about 5 seconds. However, we’ve had the gate for a week now and she’s only done it a few times (she’s more interested in playing with the cat door), and it does slow her down.

I was thinking of putting some foam pipe insulation (like this: www.amazon.com/dp/B002GKC2VC ) around the edge. She’s just barely big enough to fit through and that might narrow the opening enough to keep her out.

Q:What are the dimensions of the cat door?

A:

10in High & 7in wide

Q:If I put this gate in a door way that still has a door attached, will I still be able to close the door?

A:

Yes, you will be able to close the door. I mounted the gate on our guest bedroom door on the outer part of the frame. Once we removed the cat gate there was no problem with the door. Since we didn’t want to shut the cats out this works for us and our guests can close the door if they want.

Q:The gate can extend to 44″, what is it’s smallest dimension?

A:

The smallest width is 29″.

Q:width of gate

A:

The width without the extention bars is just a couple inches more than an average standard doorway. It should be mentioned in the specs

Q:I don’t need the small bottom opening but the measurements are perfect for my doorway. Do the small door lock ???

A:

The one I have just has a spring loaded pin that latches the door. It does not have an actual lock.

Q:Do you think a smallish 23pd beagle would be able to get through?

A:

Definitely, we have a 25 lb beagle/corgi and he can sneak right through the cat door. We easily fixed this by adding a bit of string to limit the hole size to exclude the pup but allow for ease of access for the cats.

Q:Does the human door stay open unless you choose to close it? Or does it always swing shut?

A:

The human door will stay open, it is not spring loaded. This a good product, well made.

Q:Do they need to be drilled into the walls or Bannister rail?

A:

Only if you want to make it a permanent attachment otherwise they are tension fit so that you can move them around the house as needed. If you think your dog or child will push hard on them then I’d screw them in.

 

Q:Is this gate too wide for a regular door size? I want to purchase it to use in the laundry room to keep my puppy from eating cat poop. Thanks

A:

I live in an older home, and it fits all the smaller doors. One of the doors is only 28 inches wide, and the gate just fits.

Q:How far apart are the vertical slats? Trying to figure out if my cat could slip t hrough them. Also, the cat door can be closed, correct? Thank you.

A:

2.5 inches. Yes, the cat door can be closed.

Q:My door opening is either 48 inches or 24 inches wide (with one of 2 doors closed). Is there any way this gate could be made to fit?

A:

You would have to get the extension piece sold separatey to get to 48″.

Q:Can I buys additional extensions to make this wider than then 47″? I like that it has the cat door.

A:

Yes, they sell 6″ extensions for it separately.

Q:can the cat climb over it?

A:

Yes, my cats can jump over it.

Q:Can this be used outside also?

A:

As long as you have two sides to provide resistance preferably a wall or a pillar. The gate is the best Ive ever had, and I’ve gone through a few.

Q:We have small cats and dogs, we want the dogs to stay out. The humans to pass, and the small cats not to get strangled. Is this safe??

A:

For me, it has been safe for a long time. My cats totally get the little door and pass through when it’s opened and just stay in when its closed. I think it all depends on the cat. My cats will sometimes play through the bars with their paws, but they’ve never tried to stick their head through the bars. I think my cats would be more likely to try and jump over than stick their head through. I guess it all depends on the cat. Sorry if that’s not very helpful.

Q:My door opening is 46 inches. Will this gate work?

A:

You may need to purchase the additional extension pieces to have a snug fit – the tension rods do extend out pretty far and should fit the extra 2 ” space

Q:How tall is this gate? And how wide is the actual walk through opening?

A:

The gate is 30″ from the top rail to the bottom rail. The actual gate opening is 18″

Q:Will this gate fit an opening that is exactly 72 in wide? Explain what I need to have it fit.

A:

Hi Joyce, the two following gates are at and or exceed your measurement requirements: Midwest Pet Gate, 53-Inch to 96-Inch w by 24-Inch Tall and the Pawhut Wood 72″ 4-Panel Folding Wood Pet / Dog Playpen Fence. I found these two examples by typing in, PET GATE WIDE, in the AMAZON search engine. Hope this helps.The Carlson gate in question is only 44 inches. Hope this helps.

 

Q:My door is 34 inches wide . Would this gate work?

A:

My door opening is 36 inches wide. When I ordered the gate it came with two optional extensions – one wide, one narrow. I used the wide extension and it fits my door opening – that might work on the 34 inch door opening, but it would be pretty tight. Using the gate with the narrow extension would fit the 34 inch opening better. This is also dependent on whether or not you drill into the door jamb or use the cups – I used the cups.

Q:How does the pressure mount work? I am having trouble activating it? What purpose do thescrew on sections serve? They don’t seem to tighten anything

A:

If you are not using an extension, just put the long screws (pressure rods) with rubber padded ends into the holes at the top and bottom of gate. Position the gate where you want it it the doorway…while you are holding it in place, spin the “black dealies” on the ends of the gate. This is what tightens the pressure rods into place. On my gate, the direction you spin the black dealies is oposite from top to bottom and left to right.
If you are using an extension, put that onto the gate first and then follow steps above.
Good luck…it’s easy once you get the hang of it!

Q:How tall is the gate?

A:

Product Dimensions: 44 x 1 x 31 inches
31″ high. I have a Samooyed and we had to go to the 41″ high gate

Q:The space I want to use this in has a slight angle – do y’all think it would hold if placed at an angle?

A:

Hi Helen. My doorway also has a slight angle (old house). The screws that you tighten are very easily adjustable for any doorway. Mine ended up with the top screws not as wide as the lower ones. This door is excellent for a weird space.

Q:I get the gates will allow the cats thru the opening, but will the opening keep out a 25lb Cairn terrier??

A:

I believe so. My thirty pound beagle can’t get thru and my 20lb dachshund struggles to get thru so I’m guessing they won’t be able to.

Q:what is the smallest opening that you can use this in

A:

Without using either of the included extensions, my measurement was 24 to 25 inches.

Q:Does the gate swing in both directions

A:

no it only swings one way, but you have the option when installing it to have it swing in to the room or out in the hall.

Q:Could someone provide the size of the pet gate? I have a 23 lbs cavachon dog and wonder if he could get through the pet gate. Thanks!

A:

Yes your dog would fit through the pet door, I have a poodle puppy, and she is six months old, and now finally does not fit through. She used to push right through to get after the cat, so I had to tie a rope around one end of the little door and have it be partially closed. Now that she’s bigger it really is a very nice gate. I’m not really sure how big your dog is, hope this helps.

Q:Is the overall gate 30inches tall?

A:

i believe,i can measure tonight when i get home. thanks

Q:how tall is the gate?

A:

31″

 

Q:I have an opening of 44 1/2 inches where I want to install this gate. Would this work or do I need any additional parts? Thanks!

A:

NO .IT WILL ADJUST TO THAT SIZE

Q:how tall is this gate?

A:

Actual size is 30″. Comes either tension mount or cup mount (included) so,of course, can be adjusted off floor for optional effective height. Hope this helps.

Q:How wide is the gate opening, we have Irish Wolfhounds, need to be sure it wide enough for them to go thru safely.

A:

It is wide enough for them to go through but I would say get a different gate because if they both try to go through it they may get stuck. hope this helps I have an English Mastiff.

Q:My opening is 29″ and it is going at top of basement stairs for cat and not 2 year old- will it work.

A:

It should work fine, unless you cat can really jump. I have 3 small dogs and it keeps them easily in the hallway. Just make sure it it’s centered in the opening.

Q:Is this gate ok to use at the top of a staircase?

A:

I suspect it is as good good as any. My gate, without extensions, and properly adjusted, is quite solid. Judging by the reviews of others, I suspect the more the extensions you use, the less stable it becomes. But that would be true of any gate spanning a large distance. This gate does have a bar across the bottom that could be a trip hazard. Probably the best advise is don’t put anything at the top of the stairs! But if you must, keep it as far away from the edge as possible.

Q:How tall is this gate?

A:

30 inches and there are nice

Q:My opening is 42 Inches, do I need to buy anything else besides the Gate?

A:

No you do not this is all you need

Q:What is the smallest doorway this gate can accommodate ?

A:

If you use it without the extension, it will fit a 30″ doorway, using the four “adjustment bars” on both sides, at the tops and bottoms. They look like VERY long bolts with wheels on them. You slide the bolt into the holes in the top and bottom rails and turn the wheels until the gate tightens against the door jamb. I know that probably sounds confusing, but you’ll understand when you see the gate in person. I hope this is helpful. I have three of these gates and LOVE them. They seem indestructible. And there’s a small door for cats at the bottom, if you own cats.

Q:Will tho hold back an 85 pound dog without screwing it in? Is it easy to install?

A:

Its very easy to install without screwing it in. Ours in in a doorway so has extra support but it is very solid and has held back our 60 lb puppy.

Q:Gate swing both ways? I’ll install @ bottom of stairs, needs to open out (toward me) to ascend.

A:

No. Just turn it around, that’s what we did. We use it at the bottom of our stairs too. Works well.

 

Q:does that screw into the wall or not cause i can t have anything screw in i need like a suction cap or somethong to hold the wall from falling

A:

You have the option use it where it screws into the wall or not. I chose not to screw mine into the wall and it works great. I did put some of those round felt floor protectors on the piece the lays against the wall to protect it so that it wouldn’t get scratched up, etc.; it’s worked very well so far. The pressure is tight enough to keep it in place with no screws. They do recommend, though, that you use the screws if you’re using it to block stairs.

Q:We bought these a couple years ago and in our recent move lost one of the feet that presses against the wall. Where can we get a replacement?

A:

I would suggest calling Carlson Pet Products. The address and phone number on the booklet that came with the gate are: 3200 Corporate Center Drive, Suite 105, Burnsville, MN 55306-9804 phone: 952-435-1084. It does say the gates are made in China. Hope this helps you.

Q:Does the pet door swing both ways or only one way?

A:

The pet door does swing both ways but you have to pull back on the latch to change the direction. It does not swing free in both directions without releasing the latch closure. We are going to put a zip tie on it to hold it open all the time. I suppose you could either remove the latch or keep it open with a spacer of some kind to let it swing free all the time. Hope this helps.

Q:Will this fit a 30 1/2 inch door?

A:

Yes , and also can be extended for a larger opening. I have two, and can easily move either or both to other doors if necessary. I have 2 dogs and a cat. I can leave. The cat door open if I choose to allow her access and still keep the dogs in .

Q:What are the dimensions of the small door? I want my cat to get through but not my dog.

A:

It’s about 9inch H x 8inch W, a small- medium dog would fit.

Q:Can you tell me how wide the walk through gate portion is?

A:

Roughly 6-3/4″ wide by 10-1/4″ high. None of my cats have trouble going through it. The door has a swivel latch and can be kept in the open position but is hinged on the side as opposed to the top (like a cat door) so it swings back and forth. Mine usually hangs slightly open and the cats push it the rest of the way.

Q:How I do I get this same product but not in the extra wide size?

A:

We only offer this gate in the extra wide size.

Q:I have a 36″ opening will this work?

A:

Yes

Q:Does anyone know if and how this can be modified to use on a banister?

A:

I would need more detail or a picture to answer this specifically, but I can tell you how it installs so you can determine if you think it would work in the space you are talking about. The gate is held in place with four pressure screw plates located on each corner. I don’t know if that’s the right term, but it describes their function really well. On each corner is an adjustable screw with a flat “knob” that is attached to it (this is what I am calling “pressure screw plates”). To snug it tightly to the wall you just turn the knob which unscrews the bolt and presses…

Q:My opening is 36″. Will this fit? How wide is the gate piece?

A:

Sorry I cant tell you how wide gate is because my husband put it together and I cant tell exactly where pieces start and end. im pretty sure we also purchased the extension — He doesnt remember. Measurements should be in product description. Our opening is 47″. I love gate. It keeps dogs out of kitty litter!

 

Q:I have a door with 35 inches, will it work?

A:

Yes it will work.

Q:How wide is the human walk through door (not the small pet door)?

A:

42inch

Q:Will this work as a baby gate? Im looking for a gate so my 8 month old can’t go into the kitchen/laundry area. Thanks

A:

Yes it will work just like a baby gate. If the baby figures out how to open the small gate to get through you would most likely have to tie it shut.

Q:Can you close/lock the kitty door if you do not want to use it?

A:

Yes! You absolutely can!

Q:Does the pet door swing both ways?

A:

The cat door swings both ways.

Q:How many inches in between the bars?

A:

The space on the door is 2 1/4 inches. On the side panels is 2 1/2 inches.

Q:Hi the gate can attach with the wall mounts without extensions correct? Thx

A:

Yes I have it in a doorway without the extentions

Q:Is the 44″ measured from the first bar to last bar? Or is is being measure from the full extension of pressure mount to pressure fully extended?

A:

Hi. The 44 inches is referring to the full extension of the pressure mount. So for example, if the area you are trying to use this gate in is 45 inches, this gate would be an inch too short for that area.

Q:I have an odd shaped opening.The door frames aren”t square to each other.They are at an angle.Must the two sides of the door frame be square?

A:

Mine I did not put in a door frame. It is just above my stairs with no door frame needed. Just two walls on the sides. I am not sure if that answers your question….

Q:What are the dimensions of the cat door?

A:

10in Height by 7in wide

 

Q:Although this is a pressure mounted gate, is there any way to convert it to a wall-mount, with hardware?

A:

Yes, it comes with screw mounts. If you see the grey circles on the ends of the top and bottom rails, there are holes for screws in them which makes it a permanent (and very sturdy) gate.

Q:After putting the gate together, the lock doesn’t reach the other end to successfully lock the gate. Is this normal?

A:

If it is not adjusted properly you will have this problem. Try turning the adjusters out more (tightening it in the doorway).

Q:I am woried about scratching the wall.

A:

The part that touches the wall or door frame is rubber and won’t scratch.

Q:Carlson 0930PW Extra-Wide Walk-Thru Gate with Pet Door, White I would like to order 2 of these plus 4 extra ndividually adjustable pressure mounts.

A:

This manufacturer does not offer pressure mounts separately.

Q:are the 2 extension included in the $38.34 purchase price I have a doorway 42 inches wide so need to know the exact measurement

A:

Our doorways were 43.5″ and we used the extension piece that came with it. You may be able to purchase additional extensions separately.

Q:I have a 42″ opening. Will this work?

A:

Carlson claims it will fit up to 44″ You will need to use both extensions which are included

Q:The description says this is a 29 inch gate, and has 10 inches worth of extensions, meaning it is a 39 inch gate. Why does it say 44 inch gate?

A:

I am not sure, we used for a doorway and did not use the extensions. hope this helps.

Q:how tall is the gate

A:

30 inches, however, if you are using for a really small pet, there is the possibility of them getting through the side of the gate. Our dog is a Pekinese and King Charles Cavalier Spaniel, weighs 6 1/2 pounds and she can get head through one side

Q:I have an opening of 117″ I’m wondering should I buy 2. Gates & then a 24″ & a 6″ extension of should I purchase 1 gate & 3 -24″ & 1- 6″ inch ext?

A:

No

Q:Our doorway is 47 inches. Will this fit or will it be too small? Thank you in advance!

A:

No

 

Q:How do you keep the pet gate to swing both ways? When open it will swing one way then the cat can’t push though once the lock stops him from coming.

A:

How about putting wedge to keep the locking no. I the unlocked position?

Q:How Wide is the OPENING for Adults to walk through? It looks very narrow in the picture…like we’d have to walk through sideways to fit….

A:

Wide enough for a normal sized person but not overly generous

Q:will this work in a 28″ opening

A:

Yes

Q:If I have a 52″ opening to cover–does it work with double extensions? Can I do 2 extensions that come with it (=44″) plus the 12″ extension?

A:

The extensions allow you to use it up to 44 inches. It will not cover a 52 inch opening.

Q:I need a gate 48″ wide can you add extenders?

A:

it comes with two and then you can extend with the noby things on the end. not sure if that will get you out quite as far as you need but i thought i would need larger for the opening at the top of my stairs and ended up not needing either of the extenders and didn’t have to unscrew the nobs that far. hope this helps

Q:I need 48″, what size extensions come with it? (I would rather not put 4 pieces together to get what I need)

A:

Not sure on sizes but I have small dogs 3 and 4 pounds they go right threw slats of gate.

Q:My door opening is 31″ will I need an extension?

A:

We ordered this product last month. Our opening was 40 inches and it worked for us but with very little room to spare. It comes with two extension pieces in the box, you most likely won’t even need to use both if your opening is only 31 inches.

Q:how wide is the gate?

A:

It will work with an opening from 28 inches to 44 inches, as it comes with 2 extensions that can be removed or added as needed. One opening I used it in was 29 inches wide, and the other was 31 inches wide.

Q:i cant get the screw on the top handle side to go all the way in, so the gate doesn’t work only near the handle- anyone else have this problem?

A:

The only trouble I had was getting the extensions, one on each end, to stay attached to main portion of gate while fitting to doorway.
Is the problem because the holes don’t align – I’m a little unsure of what/where I should look at on my gate to help

Q:how wide is the gate without extensions?

A:

I want to think it is 42″ It will fit a standard door with no problem. Handicap also!

 

Q:Will it fit a 32″ door?

A:

My doors are not quite 32″ so works fine….. but I did not have to use extension they include in the box…. it should work fine! I do have 2 more of these gates and one of them using extensions covered almost 60″….. I LOVE these gates because they are very easy to install and very simple to open…. Only issue: my cat does NOT understand he can walk through gate, so he jumps the gate….. crazy cat!

Q:how wide is the person opening

A:

16 inches

Q:Can you add more extensions to make it fit 50″

A:

It looks like if you can find extra extensions that you could make it wider.

Q:What do I need to purchase to have the gate fit a 60″ opening? the gate and the 24″ extension. Does the extension fit easily into the gate?

A:

I would think that would work and yes the extension fits easily into the main gate. I used the gate for a 48″ opening without the 24 extension and it was about 2 inches short to hold sturdy to the opening I just used blocks of wood and it was ok.

Q:What are the dimentions of it?

A:

Dimensions are listed on the product page: Product Dimensions: 44 x 1 x 31 inches. There are two extensions, a smaller and a larger, that can be used separately or together with the main gate, to bring it out to a length of 44 inches total.

Q:Will this fit properly to a door that is 44″ wide? I know the measurements say up to 44″ but my door opening is 43 3/4 inches wide.

A:

yes, should fit

Q:pressure mounted?

A:

Yes, but for top of stairs it users screws

Q:I have a 45-46 inch opening, would this work?

A:

This is a quote from the description. “This portable gate includes two extensions, giving you the option of covering openings in your house ranging from 29 to 44 inches.” So my answer would be no it won’t fit. Since the maximum width is 44″ you could easily add a 1/2″ strip of wood or blocks to each end which would give you an additional 1″ of width and keep the gap at the ends even. If you need more just increase the thickness of the strip of wood or blocks to 1″. That would give you an additional width 2″. It may work without any blocks because the…

Q:Does this gate come with wider widths?

A:

This is the widest width option for this gate.

Q:Can the width be extended further with additional parts? I have on of these and it works great, but I need a 2nd gate to span about a 61″ area. ideas?

A:

Yes, with no problems

 

Q:Is it tall enough to keep out a 50 lb Border Collie?

A:

I don’t think it is strong enough for a determined, high energy Border Collie, depending on the width you are going to use. It isn’t that high, either.

Q:Would a Shiba Inu be able to fit through the pet door?

A:

Yes absolutely!

Q:How tall is this gate?

A:

30″

Q:Using all extensions, it covers 44″ but my opening is 56″ can I just add-on another 12″ extension? Meaning 2 extensions on 1 side?

A:

I saw pics with several extensions. I didn’t have to use any extensions. It looks like you can use the extensions on any side you need to. Both on one side or on both sides. Good Luck.

Q:how wide is the basic gate without the extensions?

A:

How tall is it

Q:I got 29,5 wide. Does it fit well?

A:

It fits great in a standard doorway

Q:Can a cat open the pet flap themselves or does it have to stay propped open for the cat to get through?

A:

I have my flap propped open; I tied the door with string and secured it to one of the bars. I am not sure if a cat could open the flap.

Q:The Screws are to small. Am I missing something?

A:

I have no idea as my gate installed just fine. Maybe your packet included the wrong screws. I would just contact Amazon about this and perhaps return the gate for a replacement.

Q:can it extend to 70 inches?

A:

I guess if you bought enough extensions for it maybe, but I don’t think it would be very sturdy then.

Q:How tall is this gate?

A:

30″ high

 

Q:how tall is this gate?

A:

This gate is only 2ft 6in. (30in)

Q:Is this ok to use as a baby gate? I bought the mini Carlson gate and it had a warning label “NOT FOR CHILDREN”

A:

We are using it as a baby gate. Don’t know what must have happened to prompt the warning. We have the gate pictured not the mini

Q:We have a 13″, 24 lb.beagle. Wondering if she can fit thru the cat door?

A:

My Beagle is a standard that weights 25 pounds and he fit through the door no problem. He put his head down and just walked through the door. My husband rigged the door so the opening is smaller so he can stay out of the room while our cat can walk in and out.

Q:how tall is this pet gate

A:

Once mounted you can set it flat to the ground or as high up the doorway as you want. We put virtually flat to the ground, and it sits at about waist level, 3′ tall at top.

Q:can you use it on stairs

A:

I don’t see why not – it just requires having a wall on either side for the gate to expand onto. It might depend on where your wall is on juxtaposition to your first or last stair. Mine is in a doorway to block the dog from the cat pan :-p

Q:How tall is the gate?

A:

30 inches

Q:Is this gate compatible with stairway?

A:

As it says, it fits up to any 44inch span. It would depend on how wide your stairway is.

Q:I have a 4 pound Pomeranian. Will he be able to squeeze thru the gaps? I will keep the kitty door locked?

A:

The largest gap I have is 2 3/4″. Metal bars with no give.

Q:How high is the gate?

A:

how tall is this product over all

Q:Can this door be installed in a 30 1/2 inch door?

A:

Yes, without any extensions the “base” piece is only 28″ wide and can be extended by three or four inches with the twist placers.

 

Q:Can we purchase additional extensions for this gate? We need to cover a 70 and an 80 inch opening.

A:

I really don’t know as I’m not using the two small extensions that came with the gate. I would suggest going into the detailed product information on the Amazon web site. Sorry!

Q:Can a three month old kitten fit through the bars?

A:

I think so. A 6 month, probably not.

Q:How do you remove the cat door?

A:

The cat door doesn’t remove but it swings open both ways and has a latch to keep it closed when not in use.

Q:How can you remove cat door?

A:

I would say yes but would take a few tools.

Q:does the door open both ways

A:

You know, I always open it on direction. I will check when I get home tonight. I think it opens one way, but you can put it up in either direction. I will let you know ASAP!!

Q:My hallway is 38″ wide with molding at the bottom. Will this gate adjust to fit?

A:

It should be fine. My hallway has molding at the bottom and is about the same width. It would be best if the molding is flat, but if you can’t make it fit on the molding you can always place it a few inches higher. That may not be the best option for you, but my dog is 70lbs so there is no chance he makes it under a 4″ space.

Q:Is this just pressure mounted or will it also screw into a wall if necessary?

A:

I’ve used that pressure mounted for the past 3 months and it’s work fantastically however it does come with mounting plates that will screw into the door frame and then you can pressure mount into that so it is kind of both

Q:Can I buy an extra extension? I’m struggling to find a gate to fit my 55.5 inch doorway.

A:

We do offer an extension for this gate but it will only extend it up to 44″ I do apologize.

Q:how tall it stand

A:

About 3′. It’s to the bottom of my hips and I’m 5’9″.

Q:what is the width of the gate plus extensions?

A:

the gate and extensions are 39″ but then you have the adjusting screws that will give you an additional 4″ on each side. hope this helps!!!

 

Q:Can you add as many extensions as you want?

A:

I don’t know we only use the one extension it came with. You may want to email the company that

Q:Will this fit a 35″ opening?

A:

I used this gate on a 39 inch opening and a 36 inch doorway. There is an extra panel that can be added to lengthen and the pressure mounts have some play for width as well. This is a solid door and worked really good for what I needed.

Q:what size extension(s) would I need to buy, if any, to make this fit a 54 inch archway?

A:

Even with no extension this particular gate is too big wide to fit that sized door. It comes as 70 inches with no extensions.

Q:How wide is walk through door?

A:

The opening you can walk through is 17 inches wide.

Q:Looking for a gate with a 62 inch closure to go across s Porch stairway opening?

A:

Q:what is the dimemsions of the opening

A:

The cat door opening is 7 by 10 1/2 inches.

Q:Is the door self-closing or do you have to close it manually?

A:

You have to close it manually.

Q:i would need to use both extensions. how are the extensions put together? is it fragile or sturdy?

A:

Adding the extensions to the gate is easy. You would put each extension at the end of each side of the gate by putting pressure, push them together. But for them to be more study you will need to screw the cups into the wall. I have a small dog so I just put the gate by the side of the door frame and the frame help to make it stable and secure fit. I hope this help.

Q:Will it keep an 80lb. dog from jumping over it?

A:

I would think so, but check the dimensions to be sure, as I have no idea how tall your dog is or how agile.

Q:Would like to use this gate in an opening that doesn’t have a full wall on both sides. Am not seeing how tall the gate is, only how wide it expands.

A:

It’s about 3ft tall maybe a little less. If your wall is shorter than that I don’t think it would work. One of ours is agains a wall on one side and the stair bannister on the other and there’s plenty of space left.

 

Q:bottom latch

A:

the latch is on top, the bottom has a small door for small animals with a small latch.

Q:how tall is the gate?

A:

2.5 Feet

Q:how tall is it?

A:

30″

Q:how high is it?

A:

30 inches

Q:size

A:

Maximum width= 44 inches x 1 inches x 31 inches

Q:This product comes with two extensions to reach 44 inches. My stairway opening is 45-46 inches. Could I buy an additional extension and add it on?

A:

You really will need to contact the manufacturer to see if additional sections are sold separately. I have what looks to be a 7.5″ section left over which I’ll never use and would be happy to send to you for the price of shipping, if Amazon will let you have my e-mail address: ataplow@gmail.com

Q:My door is 48″. Will it fit or do I need to buy an extra extension?

A:

I don’t know the answer to this.

Q:Does the walk thru gate lock

A:

It locks in a way. When you lower the handle, just push it down a tiny bit harder and a little lever pops over the edge of the handle to prevent it from being lifted. It is easy to unlock….just push the little red lever back with your thumb while at the same time lifting the handle. The little red lever is on a spring action.

Q:when you open the door do I have to step over the frame?

A:

Yes, you have to step over the frame.

Q:what is the height of the gate?

A:

It’s as tall as the golden retriever in the picture & keeps my 8 month old blk. lab in. I don’t like it because she jumps on it & I have to realign it. The ends are the extensions & it’s a pain holding it level & together while adjusting the end knobs. The cat door stays closed to keep the dogs head out of it & my 2 cat’s just jump over the gate from the couch.

 

Q:can 2 gates be connected?

A:

Not to my knowledge. They have an extra wide gate with an extension.

Q:The width of my hallway is 40 1/4 wide. Will this gate fit?

A:

Since the product description states “this portable gate includes two extensions, giving you the option of covering openings in your house ranging from 29 to 44 inches”, I would assume yes.

Q:cn it be mounted left vs. right to open?

A:

I would think so, you would just flip it front to back. the gate swings open one direction, so it would just be reversed.

Q:How tall is it?

A:

About 3 feet but my cat went right over it

Q:how large a door does it cover?

A:

My door was to the Laundry room (32″) and the gate fit without using either of the two extensions included. I had also purchased an additional extention because I planned to use it in other areas of the house, but because the gate itself is too small for me to fit through, I can’t use it at all. I’m going to donate it to a local shelter for use and/or charity.

Q:Is this gate adjustable to accommodate molding at the bottom?

A:

Yes it is very adjustable and secure w or w/o the things to secure it. Great item at great price.

Q:HOW WIDE IS THIS so I know if it’ll fit my doorway & HOW HIGH is it have Standard poodles & Small toy Poodle?

A:

It’s 31″ tall and fits 29-44″ wide openings. We also bought the sold separately round wall supports that add another 3-4″ and provide better stabilization against the wall. We have two gates up and love them. Very easy to open and close door and our dog can’t knock them over (she is a goldendoodle – 1/2 standard poodle, 1/2 golden retriever.

Q:Can this be used as a baby gate? Or will a small child be able to crawl through?

A:

My 13 month old 20 pound daughter can climb through, but it slows her down and I am able to stop her. We still use it as a baby gate. She only climbs through if someone is on the other side though.

Q:small door

A:

It can be wider than in the picture but it won’t be sturdy. The side/extensions slide in & it’s a pain keeping them connected on both sides while adjusting. Next one I get will be something spring loaded. The cats jump over the gate & don’t need the door anyway.

Q:What is the gate height?

A:

Gate is 30 inches high.

 

Q:What is the height on gate?

A:

30 inches

Q:Can you remove the small pet door?

A:

It does not look like it is meant to be removed. It could be removed but may not easily be replaced.

Q:how tall is it?

A:

31 inches

Q:I purchased a 6 inch extention, but would like to have another 10 inch extention. Do these extentions work together?

A:

If you have the original gate then you can add the extensions, but I am not sure how many.

Q:What size doorways will this fit? My halls are narrow, 28 1/2 inches and 32 1/2 inches?

A:

This one is wider than your specs. However, I know Carlson makes other gates that are narrower.

Q:What is the height?

A:

These gates are 30″ high. You can even raise them up a bit in the door frame if necessary, since they are firmly set in the doorway once you adjust the tension wheels on either side, top and bottom.

I have to tell you that I absolutely love these gates. I have three of them and wouldn’t hesitate to order another one if I had a need.

Q:How tall is the gate? we need it to keep our kittens/cats out of a certain room.

A:

The Gate is 44 x 1 x 31 inches. It has 2 extensions to expand to 44 inches and is 31 inches tall.

Q:My door opening is 24 inches. Will it fit that size doorway?

A:

I think the gate is too wide. There is a smaller version. I returned the gates (one extra wide and one more narrow) I had purchased because I knew I would be tripping over the bar that extends against the floor. But that’s just me. The gate is fine for someone more graceful!

Q:Can this be installed at the top of the stairs?

A:

Maybe for a small animal, not a large one, definitely NOT for a baby or child. But there is no physical reason that it couldn’t be installed there, just safety issues.

Q:can this gate be used outdoors or will it rust? …is there a product that you could spray on to prevent rust or chipping from UV pr moisture?

A:

This gate is designed for indoor use only.

 

Q:Thanks, and the last question I want to know that can it ship to HONG KONG? Many Thanks for your help

A:

This product is unable to ship internationally at this time.

Q:Dear, May I know that if my door size is 28inch, can it fit? Thanks

A:

Yes it will fit if you dont use the extension parts, I measured it fast, if for some reason it does not fit you can always send it back, hope that helps dear =)

Q:Will this gate work for small dogs (8 – 10 lbs.)?

A:

An 8-10 lb. dog would likely be able to go through the small cat door. So if you want to keep the dog out, I’d try something different.

Q:Doorway is exactly 28″…anyway to fit this gate in this opening?

A:

The gate, including the side braces inserted as far as they will go, measures a bit wider than 28″. My advice would be to contact carlsonpetproducts.com/contact and ask their advice.

Q:what is the widest you can get this gate? i have a hallway that is 90 inches across and would like to block off half of it. thank you.

A:

Mine has been installed in a standard interior doorway – 32 inches. However, even with the extensions I do not think the gate would extend to 45 inches. The product information says that it will extend to 44 inches.

Q:height and width

A:

30″ high, mine is installed in a 30″ door opening, without needing to use the extenders.

Q:Not sure How big my mutt is going to get. What’s the weight limit for heavy dogs jumping and leaning against it?

A:

That I do not know. My gate is at the top of the stairs so it is not leaned on or jumped upon by the dogs (who both weigh 47lbs). You might try contacting the manufacturer directly with this question. Good luck!

Q:What is the range on door width this gate fits?

A:

Up to 44 inches..

Q:Will this work well for a 36 inch opening?

A:

Yes. Perfect. That’s exactly the size I needed. You won’t need the extension part that comes with it though.

Q:rabbit

A:

It works with 2 large cats, should work with a rabbit.

 

Q:Is there a way to completely remove the small pet door? It won’t stay open and my dog can’t figure out how to push it open

A:

The pet door is not meant to be removed. But, on mine, a hacksaw blade could be passed between the frame pieces, to cut the hinge pin, which is about 1/4 inch. This will make the opening about 1/2 inch wider.

Q:how wide?

A:

“Includes 2 extensions to expand gate to 44 inches”

Q:children

A:

Did fine keeping my grandson out of the hallway, but my mini Chorkie was another issue. Had to adjust it several times to keep her from getting through, since she’s so tiny. My children are worse than toddlers.

Q:i have a 42 in opening. what is the size of the extensions

A:

my opening is 43 inches and it is a great fit. easy to adjust.

Q:Is this gate safe for the top of stairs?

A:

Mine is in the center of the door leading to the kitchen, so I have no experience. But it comes with special brackets to secure it at the top or bottom of stairs so I believe it would work there. I do know it’s the sturdiest pet &/or child door I’ve ever owned. My dog learned to lean on my last one to eventually knock it down and after a month or so of having this one he no longer bothers because it never shifts even a little.

Q:Has anyone used this gate at the top of stairs & did it work there just as well as a normal doorway? I have two wooden poles at the top of my stairs.

A:

We used it at the top of the stairs and it worked well. One third of the gate stays in place and the other two thirds opens when it’s across our stairs. Our stairs have solid half walls either side at the top but the bottom has poles and it worked there too.

Q:Can I use this on a 24″ wide opening?

A:

No, the gate can be used in openings from 29-44 Inches.

Q:Can I use this on a 24″ wide opening?

A:

No, the gate can be used in openings from 29-44 Inches.

Q:Will it fit a 32″ opening and still be secured? It was to be able to withstand a big dog nudging the gate with hi head, trying to get to cat food

A:

My door is 30″ and I do believe it would still be tight on a 32″ door. This model also comes with two extensions to fit a wider door, one extension for each side so that the built-in door is still centered. I didn’t need them but have them set aside should I want to install it in my wider hallway entrance. As for strength, my smaller dog likes to lean on the gate and it never budges one bit. It’s solid. When you install it, you tighten the screws on the knobs that butt up against the door frame and it’s immovable unless you unscrew it again. My last gate was constantly being…

Q:How many inches tall is it?

A:

30 inches

 

Q:Can you leave the big gate open when not needed or will it swing close?

A:

It will stay open on it’s own.

Q:What are the measurements on the wide gate?

A:

That center panel is 27 inches wide. The side panels (you can choose to use one, both or neither) are 5″ each. The one that was sent to me has a problem with the latch…the latch opens and closes just fine, however, it does not even touch the rail that it needs to lock onto…so the door just swings uselessly.

Q:how wide is it?

A:

29 inches, we added the 24 inch extension for a 53 inch wide hallway. It works but not as sturdy as I would have liked. I use it for dogs, not kids.

Q:this will work to stop a normal size (short and skinny) yorkshire? thanks to all for your answers.

A:

The opening of the small door on the gate is 11h x 7w , a little narrower than a piece of paper. I have a very large 25lb cat that fits through it w room. Its not a great gate for the top of a staircase / landing but really solid for a doorway. Small door doesn’t get in the way when opening for you to pass. The actual swinging gate opening can be a bit narrow for a larger adult. Hope this helps

Q:Can the flat pressure mounts be removed to install the Y-shaped mounts for spindles?

A:

the ends do come off..if thats what you mean.. can be extended also

Q:can I get replacement parts?

A:

Hey there…I looked into that too before I bought it. The answer is yes. Amazon sells them as well as the manufacturer website.

Q:I have an opening of 92″, will the gate accomodate multiple extensions?

A:

it doesnt look like it will. ours is in a standard doorway and our dog a pushed against it and you can see it bowed a little. its just a weak pt not meant to downgrade product. we are pleased with it.

Q:My doorway is 58 inches wide. What extensions do I need? Do I add to the ones that come with this gate ro do I have to replace them with wider ones?

A:

My gate fits a 32-inch doorway, though I could add a couple of inches to that by extending the screws. Additionally, the 2 extension pieces that come with the kit could extend the gate by roughly 10 inches more. That adds up roughly (this is not exact) to a total of maybe 44 inches by my reckoning–not even close to the 58 inches you’re trying to fill. Therefore I would look at a wider gate to purchase.

Q:My door opening is 46 inches. Will the gate fit with two 6 six inch extensions or one 12 inch extension? Which would be better?

A:

Although I did not need to use the extensions I think you are better off using the 2 6″ extensions. It will give you more flexibility in centering the gate on the doorway.

Q:What are the dimensions of the cat door?

A:

10 x 7 inches as stated

 

Q:please help! My doorway opening is 46″ my main question is the gate says it extends to 44″ but is that including the screws fully extended or not??

A:

I would also like to know – my doorway is also 46 and we have two dogs, 70 lb and 20 lb, the big one likes to jump and lean on the gate with a good jump and brute force, will the gate still snuggly fit into the doorway or is it not going to fit at all due to being 2 inches two small? Also what extension should I get, 4 or 6 size? I don’t want to purchase something that will be too small or too big to fit in the doorway and deal with the hassle of returning it.

Q:I have a 63″ opening, can I buy an extra extensions?

A:

I am pretty sure that you can buy extra extensions. They sell them on Amazon.

Q:what is the width

A:

Standard size crib mattress.

Q:Is there a way to set up the gate so the door swings both ways?

A:

no, just one way. the dog gate swings both ways but the big one dont

Q:can i get it to fit a 48″ opening

A:

No. Mine only extends to 44″. Carlson has an Extra TALL gate that would work at that width (48″).

Q:Is there a spindle add on to use with stairs? I can’t seem to find any that work with one side being a wall…the other a spindle.

A:

There is nothing included in terms of adapters or attachments for a spindle. You’d have to figure out a way to rig it up on your own.

Q:Will this fit a 45″ inch opening (slightly smaller at the bottom due to moulding)?

A:

According to the specs it goes up to 44inches so you are about an inch over, my opening is 43 inches. The only thing I can think of you can do is to nail 1-2″ blocks where you want the tension mounts. It won’t be sightly but perhaps you can paint it white to match the gate or paint it to match the opening.

Q:What size extension would I need to fit a 54″ opening?

A:

We purchased two gates one for a standard size opening and another for a wide opening off the foyer. For that wider opening we used the extensions in the one kit plus one of the the extensions from the other kit. I know this is not a “technical” answer but it’s how I made it work.

Q:How tall is this gate?

A:

Unfortunately, I don’t know. I had to send mine back, as my kittens could walk through the slats.

Q:I would like to use the small door to allow my cats to pass, but keep my Westhighland Terrier out. Will a 20lb dog fit through the small door?

A:

Unfortunately, the answer is probably. My 4 month old German Shepherd pup at 25lbs can still crawl through it. His legs are long so he has to crawl, but he still fits through, following right behind the cats. As my German Shepherd grows, he will no longer fit, but since your dog is a Westie, it is full grown at 20lbs.

 

Q:Does the door swing open both ways?

A:

No. One way only. I have 2 of these and they are very effective and do not harm the woodwork in the doorway. Easy to move to a different area. What I like is they keep the dogs confined but the little door allows the cat to get in or out of the room.

Q:How wide is the gate opening?

A:

Mine is just under 16 inches.

Q:Will a dog fit through the cat door? I’m thinking of purchasing this gate and am wondering, will my dog be able to fit through the cat door?

A:

My 32 pound dog fits through the cat door (I saw her sneak through a couple of times), as does my 20 lb. cat, but normally she stays on the other side. So, yeah, it’s not 100% effective in keeping a small dog out, but it does work as a deterrent.

Q:Does the small pet door have a locking mechanism as well?

A:

Yes, it will lock closed. We removed it, because we only wanted to block the big dog, & I didn’t like having it stand open, but it does lock. It is working great for us. The little dogs can nibble their food, & the big dog can’t gobble it up, while they are taking their sweet time.

Q:Would this work as a baby gate? It will be used in a doorway (not the top of stairs). Want to make sure it was sturdy enough/baby can’t fit through.

A:

i actually used them as baby gates. I have side-by-side stairs with one going down and the other up. I put one of these gates at both cases and didnt seem to have much of an issue. By the time she figured out she could fit through the pet door, she was too big to fit. But it is possible so I would lock the little doors (they have a closing latch feature) that she couldnt figure out when we played in that area. The gate not only has a tension mount option but also comes with hardware to safely mount to the wall. I hope this helps! It was the only one I could find that was reasonable and…

Q:Small Dogs… Does anyone on here know what the spacing is between the bars?

A:

glad I checked here! The only thing I want to secure with a gate is our Chihuahua. I’m so tired of trying to step over the giant gate we have now, or take it up and down all the thime. Why does this have such huge space between the bars?

Q:how far apart are the slats?

A:

About 2 1/2 to three inches. The outer slats slightly farther apart than the ones on the actual gate part.

I have been really happy with ours thus far.

Q:how far apart are the bars?

A:

Varies. The bars on the main gate are 2 1/4″ apart. On the extensions they are 3″ apart. Cheers!

Q:What are the basic dimensions?

A:

30×44

Q:Our opening is between 42-43 inches wide. Will this Carlson 0930PW Extra-wide gate work? If not, what size extension(s) do we need?

A:

Look at product specs online and this will answer your question.

 

Q:Door is shown opening left can it be mounted to doorway to mount right
