How many cross bars need to go under this for it to be secure? and if I add the extension does it need more crossbars?

It only requires 2 crossbars to attach to and im pretty sure that applies with or without the extension

2 crossbars needed and no, you do not need additional ones if you use the extension.

Might want to use 2 extensions I have mine in a 32" doorway with one extension

I do not really know but there is enough room underneath to do so. and there is no middle bar to prevent the "pop-up."

Good day, if the crossbars are not adjustable, it may not fit perfectly out of the box, as the mounting holes are in predetermined locations, but the bar spread you have can be accommodated by the box. Thank you and have a great day!

there are 3 swappable extender sections. One is 4 bars wide. One is 2. One is 1. They can be swapped from either side. Our worked well with 4 on one side and 2 on the other. Its much stronger now. We tried with 4 on one side and just 1 on the other and it was wobbly

I've installed 2 of these for clients and if they are installed tightly they will add an extra measure of security as well as child-proofing. Both clients are very happy with them. Just my 2 cents, hope it helps.

yes you can. all you have to do is use the middle bar with no ends and use two of the bars with the fitted ends to connect the 3 cross bars. hope you understand my explanation. but yes it does.

Probably. You will need to look at the overlay which will loose some spacing for the crossbars. Also the cross bar connections that extend from the cross bars will not fit through both upward braces. A little modification would be necessary to achieve stability.

Sorry to say, no. By the time you hookup all the connections, (I used them all), unless you have it in a large area, I have no idea why you'd want one more harness to hide. Mine is in a Mustang. I also put a bigger monitor in so there is no room left for me to put in much else.

We also questioned wether we could add an extension bar and searched the manufactures web site and found that they do have longer support bars. But we never purchased the extension aswe had already installed the light/fan and had cut the wires. At the time it seemd strange that the wires were so long, but on reflection I now know why, they are for the longer bar. Hope this helps.

Technically yes.... The middle extension is male on one end and female on the other so adding a section should work Fine. My concern would be its rigidness once together which I think would be fine but you would have to be strategic with where you place your existing cross bars that you mount the rack to, so to maximize support and rigidness. I highly recommend this rack! Great product for the money!

It's a long back so you may not need to do anything. If you do need something to secure the material, I would think 2 or 3 large safety pins.

I think you will need a 100" bar. You need double the width of your door if you want it to open completely and then another 4" on each end for the mounting hardware. You might want to explore using 2 sets and 2 smaller doors that open in the middle. There were some questions/answers from someone else about this

yes. Ihave attached various items to the cross bars with no problem. They are similiar to O.E.M an dthe only difference is the price.

Sure; in fact you'll have more overlap on the frame, making it more secure. My opening is 35 - sort of skimpy for me - yet it works!!!

I'd call CURT customer support. But from the design two extensions would fit together. You would need a third cross support. (left side to right side) otherwise it would sag in the middle and stress the frame. It is a tough structure when assembled.

Two works. It us made to strap under your side roof bars (there should be a gap between the bar and your car), but ours doesn't, so my husbands just uses several bungee cords and its secure.
