Carlson Extra Wide Retractable Pet Gate, Expands up to 50" Wide, Easy Install, Includes Installation Template, Locking Indicator, Gray

This gate works! Don’t get me wrong. The reason this isn’t getting 5 stars is that this thing is spring loaded. Like REALLY spring loaded. I had to use two hands and a foot to get it to latch. Oh, and if you don’t quite get it latches it will snap back into the spool so fast and violently it’ll shock you! It never hurt us. It did test my heart rhythm a few times. And keep my dog from walking within a hallway of the door we had it installed on for a few days. So I guess that part was effective at keeping the dogs out! Lol But, as long as you’re careful, make sure it is completely latched, this gate should work. It is a bit of a pain to install. You WILL be screwing into your woodwork. I DO NOT recommend installing this into anything but actual wood! Plaster is most definitely a no no. It will remove itself from its mounting with all the pressure exuded on the screws when the gate is closed.

It doesn't roll back smoothly. It bunches up

This is a little tricky to operate with one hand and often wrinkles as it rolls up.But it does get the job done and the price was right.

Difficult to unlatch to open. Dog pushes underneath the mesh.

Bought this for my two cocker spaniels, and it does not keep them in. They are 25lbs and can go right underneath because the tension is not strong enough and the gate is flimsy. They do not even have to push hard to get through it. I also drilled holes in my wall for installation that I will have to repair because the gate will be taken down. Not impressed at all.
