+# Scrollbar gutter
+
+The `scrollbar-gutter` rule allows authors to reserve space for the vertical scrollbar.
+
+Setting the value to `stable` prevents unwanted layout changes when the scrollbar becomes visible.
+
+## Syntax
+
+```
+scrollbar-gutter: [auto|stable];
+```
+
+### Values
+
+| Value            | Description                                    |
+|------------------|------------------------------------------------|
+| `auto` (default) | No space is reserved for a vertical scrollbar. |
+| `stable`         | Space is reserved for a vertical scrollbar.    |
+
+
+## Example
+
+In the example below, notice the gap reserved for the scrollbar on the right side of the
+terminal window.
+
+=== "scrollbar_gutter.py"
+
+    ```python
+    --8<-- "docs/examples/styles/scrollbar_gutter.py"
+    ```
+
+=== "Output"
+
+    ```{.textual path="docs/examples/styles/scrollbar_gutter.py"}
+    ```
+
+## CSS
+
+```sass
+/* Reserve space for vertical scrollbar */
+scrollbar-gutter: stable;
+```
+
+## Python
+
+```python
+self.styles.scrollbar_gutter = "stable"
+```
