Will furring out my existing 2x4 wall studs with 1x2's achieve the required depth for this unit? (3.5" + .75" = 4.25" stud cavity)

Yes that will work just fine. This box does measure slightly less than 41/4" behind the nailing flanges. This is a very sturdy and well made dryer box.

yes it will.but the next new home I build I will install a 2x6 wall , but for what you are doing that will work

Although the instructions are only for a ceiling type mount, after looking closely at the unit I see no reason it could not be mounted in a wall. The spring tabs are tapered to allow for varying drywall thicknesses. The depth is about 2.25" so it should fit fine in your 4" wall. You have given me a good idea; I may try one of these inside a closet myself. It is quite bright and reasonably priced for such a good quality LED fixture.

My cat door, installed, is about 4-3/8" deep total. It protrudes from the wall about 1.25" on both the outside and the inside. The remaining 1.875" is the depth of my wall. As I recall there was a lot of room for variance in the depth of the wall. According to the Sureflap website dimensions the tunnel thickness is 3/16", so that might be the minimum wall thickness.

I would think it would depend how much "depth" of the 4" surface there is before the transition to 3". If you have approximately 2" of 4" diameter depth I would recommend the 4" product.The reason being that the device is installed by manually turning 4 screws to expand it into location. The "deeper" your location may provide a more complex installation in my "opinion".

Hmm, not sure, I do not have access to the box, it was installed in another location. But since the box will fit into a studded wall cavity (3.5") it can not be any deeper (take in to account the wall board thickness). That said, everything is recessed into the wall for AC plug clearance. Therefore I would estimate the recess to be about 1.5" I would allow at least 2" on the shallow side to get the cables thru. That said, this kit makes for a very nice installation at both ends.

I think your contractor is correct. A 2x4" framed wall is actually 3.5" depth for the framing plus about 1/2" depth for the drywall which gives a total of 4" clearance. That being said I worked with a "standard" size wall and had no problem with fitting the speakers at all. They fit well and sound great.

I don't think 1/2: thicknedss will leave enough threads for a solid tiightening.. Can you drill out enough material surroiunding the center hole to leave about 1/4" for the threads?

Your 4 inches is all you need. The cabinet protrudes 3 1/2 inches from the wall with the door closed. The depth is approx 8 inches. I hope I answered your question

I filled a 40 breeder fairly deep with one of these. That's 36x18. 75 is 48x18. So one of these will do it moderately shallow. Two for deep.

Hi Virginia, I am afraid you have to drill two 1/4 " holes as It calls for in the instructions.Regards,Guenter

Yes. Not much but inch or two. I can check if you give me exact distance of studs.

The Rough Opening 14 1/2" x 48" If your home was built in the last 50 yrs the studs should be 16" on center and the unit fits perfectly between them. My wife just loves this stow-Away Ironing Cabinet. Hope this was helpful GoodLuck

Yes, I have not installed them yet but have verified the sizes. I would like to point out the wall mounted application requires access to the back side of the wall to adjust the depth.

Wall thickness is OK. You would need to modify interior and exterior opening to to 6 1/2" diameter.

I would say yes. Mine is installed already and I don't have an easy way to check the depth of the hole. But the "box" itself has an inside depth of 6.5" where at least 3.5" is protruding, including the door. Whatever the thickness of the back wall is, it's not more than 1/2" so it sounds like it meets the 4" criteria. Overall amount sticking out from the wall is about 3.75".

Yes I think so. I would put a 2x6x55" or so. You woul want to catch three studs so it does not rock the wall. Let it hang over each stud a little so when you screw a 3" screw through the 2x4 in to the stud it does not split the end of the board. I have a 100lb bag hanging and the wall does not even creek. You would need three 2x6's going across. All the lag bolts would go through the bracket, 2x6 Sheetrock and then stud. 4"lag screw works perfect

yes they do. we bought that model without realizing that we had 2 x 6" studs in our wall. Not sure if they take returns, but if not, we'll be selling our on Amazon. BTW, there are 2 models for 2x4" stud walls. One is for new construction, the other for retrofitting the dryer box to your existing walls.
