can this be mounted horizontally? The lock position on my lock is horizontal.

Yes I installed it horizontally and it works just fine. In fact, its safer to install horizontally because you dont risk being locked out of the house when you slam the door close and the lock accidentally come down and locks you out!
1563753
Yes, you can use double sided tape or screw it in. Hopefully you have room to mount it on a flat surface as that would be better. Hope that helps.

No, only north and south and by the way if you door lock is horizontal and the lock jaw can fall right on the top of the lock and turn the screw tight and still nobody can punch the lock and open the door. I would use Gorilla glue tape and liquid. It will secure the lock jaw up and over 100 pounds of force.. I've been doing it and tested it.
1563755
Yes it can. In fact I recommend it that way because if it slips down while in the vertical position while you are out you will not be able to get back into your house (at least not through that door). I intentionally purchased and installed a deadbolt that is in the horizontal position when locked just for that reason.

No. The lock jaw should be in the vertical position even if your lock is horizontal. Just place Lock Jaw in vertical position over your lock. Have it set up so when you slide the two arms down, they touch and hold the lock in position so your lock cannot be turned. Check out their website for demo. It should be so gravity will keep the two arms of the lock in the down position, even if the little set-screw is not tight.

Yes, but it depends on the individual item. The one I have swivels. I'm not sure that all of them swivel to be both horizontal and vertical, so be sure to check the item description.

If you ran the cable through the bolt holes used for mounting then I am pretty sure you could. It Ian designed to work mounted and it does that perfectly. Don't know how it would do with a cable lock.

You can, but it doesn't seem very stable. I think it is designed for the horizontal position.

No idea!!! Sorry... I've only installed it horizontally and I'm no longer at the house where I installed it to even check for you... sorry again. For more information you can check with the manufacturer: http://www.brinno.com/html/PHV1325.html

It will mount horizontal or vertical, makes no difference. The hard part is bolting the safe to its mounting bracket. You may need to have someone with small hands do this.

Absolutely. I tried for you and it worked. Mine id mounted sideways. good luck have fun!

Yes, that is how I have it currently installed. During installation I called the manufacturer and they advised it was possible to mount in any direction.

They could be mounted horizontally, but they are not the same width on both ends. One end has a bigger width. They were made to be mounted vertically.

Yes. Mine is pointed downward when locked. Goes slightly horizontal when unlocked. Make sure you check your screw length and cut (if needed) to appropriate length. It WILL go through facing of deadbolt side if too long. This lock was a lifesaver for me considering the garage door is over 20 years old. Hope that was helpful.

Yes, it will work in the horizontal position. It is designed to be used that way. We bought it for our forklift and have had no problems.

Yes. That's what I use them on. Initially installed 6 horizontally, as per instructions. Didn't like it (see my review). Vertical mount (if you have the space) is the best way to go. And don't rely on the couplings they provide.

This mount is made to be installed vertical. I doubt that you could install it horizontally and make it work properly.

My lock is parallel to the long side. It shouldn't make any difference as the latch is oriented parallel to the short side and the lock is low profile and shouldn't reduce the open flat area for storage.

The holes are pre-drilled. It has been several months since we used it so I'm not sure if it can be used horizontally but I'm sure the would be way

I should think the lock would work as well side by side as it does mounted perpendicular - although if the cabinet doors are laminated, it may be pretty easy to rip off.

Not really locked, it's more of a detent. It works well either angled or straight.
