Can these be installed on doors regardless of where the door hinges are situated without having to insert the key upside down?

On my installation the left door position lock installed with the key opposite that of the key position on the door where the lock was installed on the right . I do not believe with a two door install where the locks are on the left and on the right it is possible to have the keys other than one up and one down

Yes hinges are fine. We love this unit. I suppose you could put them side by side. I would suspect there would need to be a bit of a gap between the two to allow doors not to hit.

I don't know. I don't see why not.Miguel doesn't say he tried it and it did not work.There is a rod that goes all the way thru the side panel and the door and is secured by the top and bottom. I don't see why you can't invert the doors and then push the rod thru.

yes there are two - key hole type - large at one end and smaller at the other. slip over a screw head and slide into position.

I don't think you can change the door hinges and it only opens one way. But you could mount it upside down from the other one essentially making the door open on the opposite side of the other one you have. There is no difference to the top and bottom of the cabinet.

Not easily. You would need to drill new holes for the hinges on the opposite side and relocate the magnet pieces so they matched up and were on the correct side.

The holes for the hinges are pre-drilled. I would not have the ability to change the way the door opens but someone that is handier with tools would probably be able to.

Well, the 'pin side' has to be installed on the gate and the 'lock side' has to be on the fixed wall or post. Also worth mentioning - the key side probably can't be installed upside down. I cut a piece just a hair too short and so our latch relies on gravity to shut fully... and the lock won't catch if it's not shut fully.

Yes, but note that pressing multiple keys in this orientation is difficult! In fact, any time you choose a combo of several keys, they have to be pressed PRECISELY at the same time or it will give an error; for this reason, I would not opt for combinations involving pressing more than 2 keys at the same time.Also you have to be ready for the door to flop open and the contents to fall out. I wouldn't recommend trying the upside down option.

I guess yOu could but you would have to carve out a hole for the lock to go into on the other side. Hubby said you could hang it upside down to make the door open from the other side. But don't really think that would look very good either.

It is not meant to do so but if you have enough room in the inside if the rail and assuming the holes line up it may work. Again, it is not meant to do so but if it lines up and you are able to tighten the screws nice and secure there be no problem after that. These rails are not set up like keymod rails so they will not have to slide in place like keymod rails.

Yes you can flip it upside down to swing door right or left. Also the shelf or shelves can be mounted either way. The only thing that changes is the placement of the Stack-On emblem, if you use it.

vertical installation can be done, but it does not work as well. As it will sit lower on one of the knobs than the other.

No. But! If the door is large enough you can put one facing out and one facing in and whether you are out or in; you could slide that particular lock over. I found that this lock did not work well for us. I kept forgetting it was there and eventually broke it. But found nothing wrong with the lock itself.

I can't see why not actually. As long as it goes with the direction of the door opening.

it can be done by turning cabinet upside down, but the door itself cannot be mounted on the opposite side,

You are correct. But they function well in either case and I don't find this objectionable, particularly when the doors are not within sight of each other. A round knob or a lever handle that was straight and at a 90 degree angle to the door edge would be the only way to avoid this. Many passage sets for interior doors and locksets for exterior doors have lever handles that curve and point up or point down depending on whether they are installed on a right-hand door or a left-hand door.
