Does this key box mount IN the drywall, between studs; or does it just screw onto the surface of the drywall?

I mounted on the surface of the dry wall. Too much work to mount it flush with the wall

i drilled holes in the drywall then used dry wall anchors. Then just screwed in the screws to hold it to the wall. Does that answer your question?

It has mounting brackets. In fact it is better if you are right in between studs because the electrical outlet sticks out an inch or so beyond the edge of the plate.

No it attaches to the wall in the front. You just find the stud and use the screws to attach it to the wall. They also give you a screw that holds it to the drywall also because it will fit just on one stud. It won't go to the other stud. So you use one stud on one side and the drywall screw on the other.

I mounted mine in my garage without any problems. I noticed the width of the bracket also, so I just put a slight angle on my screws as mounted the bracket. Both screws hit the "meat" of the stud. I also used a magnetic stud finder to find my stud, drew a small line at the center of the stud, then centered the bracket on that line and screwed it in.

It gets screwed through the case, directly into the wall. I believe it came with drywall anchors

It comes with screws and wallmounts with help the screws hold the piece to drywall. You need a drill to make the first holes and then insert the wall mounts into the holes. Finally, screw the screws into the wall mounts to secure the key holder to the wall.

You could mount to drywall, but I would use toggle bolts instead of anchors. If you will be hanging something fairly heavy, like a ladder, and putting it up and down fairly often, then you should definitely screw into studs. I have three mounted to studs and they work fine.

It will install on drywall with the proper mounting screws and drywall anchors . Just go to the hardware store and tell them what your doing and they will get you what you need .

Mine installs to the right or left side, top or back. I side mounted it to a horizontal 2x4 that was screwed to the existing studs. Then I damaged the screws so you cannot remove the 2x4. The attaching screws for the safe to the 2x4 can only be accessed by opening the safe.

Onto wall board but thru a stud behind. Whatever you mount it too must be solid on both mounting ends. All 6 screws need to be mounted in wood or concrete to prevent pull out when used.

You can mount it to drywall if you have to. I have 2 of these in different rooms and I have them done both ways. I used my own anchors and screws for the mount and I used them in all available holes. The thing is solid like this.

It's for when you hang the device up and there is no stud behind the dry wall. You drill a hole and then tap the clip into the dry wall. Then screw the screw into the clip. If there's a stud where you are hanging the hanger, you don't need the clips.

I'm not a carpenter or an engineer but I feel you should be safe mounting it above the door if you attached it to a stud behind the wall. If you simply screw it into the dry wall, the screws will pull right out causing you to face plant on your first set of TRX pushups. Be sure to pre-drill your holes. The mounting screws are huge and might split the board you are screwing them into if you don't have holes for them to go into.

It's one of those single screw through the center of the unit that threads into a fixture bar provided with the fixture. I have installed them on recessed and surface boxes and they work but I've always considered the center screw and fixture bar method on a supposed wet location installation to be second rate.

Per the catalog listing, it comes with clyinder and two keys. No stud to mount is mentioned.

This is exactly what is says it is just a wall plate with the connectors. You will have to run the wires and mount the box within the wall prior to installing this plate. (To answer your question: cut hole in wall where you want the box. Mount box. Run wire...)
