Standard pet gates stop at about a metre, which rules out most hallways in an older Australian house and every double doorway. This spans 130 cm.
It retracts rather than swinging, so when it's open there's no frame in the walkway to catch a hip on — it rolls back into its housing and the opening is clear.

Styling notes
Mesh gates suit containing rather than restraining — they are ideal for a dog that respects a barrier and less so for one that pushes through things. At the top of stairs, check the tension every few weeks. Black disappears against a dark skirting or a doorway shadow far better than white, which reads as equipment in a hallway.
