Has anyone found a secure way to attach it? Has anyone found a workaround for attaching it to door trim that isn't flat?

We are using command strips with double sided tape to make up for the unevenness of the door trim.

Our is the same way, we decided to buy the "extreme Velcro" and cut it into pieces. We used the velcro to adhere to around the door frame and house and it's worked like a charm. We ended up doing this on two doors, and it works so well, we left if up over thew winter. We only have to replace one piece of velcro that came off the house (adhesive wore off). By far the best solution. The velcro is here: VELCRO - Industrial Strength - Extreme - 4" x 1" Strips, 10 Sets - Titanium

Chris, I have very soft, almost loose, molding. I was very afraid it would fall or break. There is a little fixture that holds it in place in the molding, but it is the way the weight goes on the front of the door jam that makes it work. It is very secure. I don't think you will have a problem.

Hi,actually I was not able to fit it into my door. There was a different strip installed before. So I ended up with just buying the old type strip.

Only one of the two connectors need to be on the door itself. You can use a stick'em or glue if you want. The unit can hang onthe wall or trim.

Honestly My super did it, but one side comes with an adhesive strip. If not you should find a strong glue, or slide it down your shower door slot...... If it has one. Hope I could help in anyway.

Use the provided magnets. Sounds like you didn't mount them on the door when you assembled the item.

I have one in my vehicle. I used a pistol security cord to secure it in place; however, it could be bolted through the metal of the floor board, I am sure. Of course, it depends on your vehicle and what sort of surfaces you have available. It was easiest for me just to secure it through the cord holes on the back/side of the box to a stable part of the vehicle.

It doesn't attach, it's uses leverage to hold strong on the door frame. Refer to image in link below. If link doesn't work, Google Image Search "Pull Up Bar Door Frame" The top straight black bar rests against the top of the inside of the door frame, this keeps it up. The two horizontal bars extending out the sides rests on the outside of the door frame and works to keep the unit from swinging. It's basically physics. Please note, if your doorframe is in or near a corner you'll NEED at least 4inches of space before the corner for it to hold properly. Again refer to the image below for reference. No anchors or screws into the wall. I was able to hang a 300lb person from the unit without damaging my door frame http://www.easypaleo.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/DSCF34161.jpg

You do not need to screw attachment into molding/trim. The piece that you screw into the wall can slide up and down along the pole to clear trim/molding so you don't damage it. For example, I have trim that extends about 3 inches from the floor so the lower attachment piece was slid up a little to clear the trim so the gate would mount flat without damage to any trim boards.

There is a door anchor included so you close the door on it and it stays put. Just make sure you do it with a sturdy door! :-)

Yes, no problem. I have the main box firmly attached to my wooden door frame......using the original double sided tape included with the kit. Still in place after over a year!

My husband installed it and then realized it was meant for another door, so he had to remove it. He had no problem doing so. :) Hope that helps!

install a piece of 1'x1' flush with 3 screws flush with the door jamb. make sure the bars won't rub against it.

Make sure you have the door installed securely. It's very thin and can appear secure when in fact it's not. Do you remove the cover frequently?

My husband mounted it and didn't have any problems. I would recommend mounting it and not using the door hanger part. He used the screw wall mount things.
