How does this 'attach' to the door frame? I live in an apartment and can't leave any permanent damage like nail holes.

I live in an apt as well. It attaches using a tension type rod like many shower curtains use. Definitely no permanent damage with it.

No it doesn't leave anything. It comes with self-adheasive velcro strips. We really like ours, as do our dogs.

It fits like a shower curtain rod. Just twist is to the length you want, place between the door frame and it will stick. Should not cause any damage to door frame. The velcro strips might peel pain a bit, but you can probably get away without the velcro.

It has a tension rod that adjusts that runs across the top (works like a shower curtain rod). Their is a rod holder that you can put in (comes with) that will need to be screwed in. I haven't put it in but plan on it as the tension rod slips down due to dogs and us going in and out of it. The sides are used with 3-4 velcros on each side (so they may leave marks after you take the Velcro off, I haven't tried it yet).

Note that the Velcro tabs are pretty likely to pull off door frame paint when removed (assuming they're stuck to painted wood like ours). You might consider using some sort of less aggressive tape if your landlord will be scrutinizing every inch of the place. Or you could plan to sand and repaint those spots.

I used a few skinny little nails on the top right & left corners. They could be spackled easily

It is a super easy twist length rod (kind of like a shower curtain rod) - as you twist it it it extends and the pressure of the ends holds it up. Hope that helps!

It looks like the glass is held into place by a simple rubber seal around the edges of the opening in the door on the side facing into the cabinet (i.e. not visible with the doors closed). We think the rubber seal could pretty easily be removed, which would free the glass and leave the door/wood frame intact. We didn't actually try to remove the seal, but it definitely looks doable, and it looks like removing the seal and glass would expose up to 1/4" lip to attach something else to.

I mounted mine to the door frame but you can probably get away by just twisting it to wedge it between the door. I never at all felt like it would fall when it was mounted though.

It has holes to screw into the door itself. It fits perfectly and the magnetic bottom sticks together after the dogs come in or go out. We are very satisfied. Although it wont last forever and we will order another when this one wears out.

I'm going to assume you might mean a hook and eye to secure it to a wall or molding or something, but yes, if your careful, you should be able to add some hardware to it to make it more secure, like being knocked over or forced open by a pet....just be careful and don't drill too deep, and be sure to drill a pilot hole first, so you don't split the wood frame. Good luck..!!

The helper clamps onto a standard angle bar style frame. No holes are needed. This holds it firmly against the floor.

U slide it into the grooves through the top of each side. It doesn't go through the door. Its not nailed or glued into place either.

There is a flange on the frame that goes around the inside of your opening. It has holes for you to secure it with screws.

The top part of this strip is made of a semi-hard plastic, but I don't see where it would be a problem to secure it more permanently with screws. I know some of the people commented on it not staying on a long time, but I've had mine on our metal door for a year now and it shows no sign of letting go anytime soon. Maybe it just sticks better on metal than on wood. Good luck!

If you are using the weather stripping that came with the door, it won't matter - it will fall off when you open and close the door a few times anyway. Go to Lowe's or Home Depot and get some decently sticky and a bit thicker foam insulation. Cut it to fit so that the insulation attached to the opposite side frame of the sliding door and rubs, but doesn't adhere to the stationary window. Good luck - we and our dog LOVE our door, but the insulation had to be replaced almost immediately after installation due to the lack of adhesiveness and the rubber grips the stationary window too much for it to stay on.

my door previously had a hole. you can buy a hole template. there is a pull already on it. you can see it on the picture to the right, looks like a hook. you just push that in and the hook pops out for you to grab onto when the door is all the way in the pocket. i bought a pocket door kit to install my door at home depot if you are making a pocket door from "scratch" fyi!

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

For the cabinet carcase (the box), use screws plus glue for strength, not nails. Especially if the cabinet is for a heavy load. For attaching a face frame (with or without doors) to a plywood cabinet the nailer is just what you want: the small holes are easily filled to be just about invisible.

There is an attachment, actually a strong band of fabric with a loop, for the bands to go through, and the end has a thickened portion that can be placed on the other side of a door frame when the door is opened, but will not slip through when the door is closed. It acts like an anchor.

No nailing or drilling, but I think the hooks that go over the door must be attached to the box itself with a screwdriver.

It goes over the door - similar to other types of hangers for clothing, etc. Does not require any holes drilled or screws. Of course if you have a real ''skinny'' or oversized door it might not fit. Cannot recall if description gives the dimension of the rack that hangs over the door. This was a gift so I do not have here to check for you. Hope this helps!!

It goes on your door frame, and the screws go on the inside of the frame - so there are no permanent marks to worry about. This lock has worked really well for us!!
