Most gates are adjustable for whatever size you need to protect, so don’t worry about that.
Also you can get a door frame held gate, but you will need additional installation. Really nothing beats a free standing doggie door.

A dog gate is a necessary item to keep your dog confined to an area specially when it is a little puppy and has not been trained yet. You can supervise all it’s moves and actions to keep it safe. Baby gates can be used as dog gates too and help to block off certain rooms of the house.
