Can it be installed into metal? We have a metal frame shop. AND...can it be cut in anyway so that it fits in a smaller area?

Yes and yes. The tracks are a plastic extrusion material. You can certainly cut them to legths which acomodate your needs. As far as installing "into metal", I don't know what you mean but again they're made of PVC or similar plastic, if you want to build a framework around them you can but their intended use is to hold tools/parts in bins. If money is no object you could cover a whole wall with track and hang bins anywhere.

Yes, if you mean metal frames. I have a number of these cut to different lengths, they work great, although the official ratings probably discourage using them in any shorter lengths. I use toggles on the metal studs and they have held up well.

I don't see why it couldn't be installed into metal. Mine is in my garage but I'm sure it could. And the material is a soft plastic that can probably be cut pretty easily with a small saw.

Yes. I drilled and countersunk all of my screw holes. Material cuts beautifully with a circular saw. I am very happy with the product.

Mine are all screwed into wooden studs ... no reason metal would not work, though. I have many pieces that I sawed to length, using a table saw. Thanks, Mike G.

Since I did not have to install the Gladiator mountin bar onto metal, I can only assume that it would not be a problem. I would immagion that you would have to use sheet metal screws, but perhaps you might want ot use some 'plywood' between the metal and the mounting panel. As to cutting it to size, again there should be no problem there.

I put mine in a old antique iron bed. I do believe a metal frame would work. The frame of the bottom matress is matal itself.

No it cant. You can change the width of the screen but I don't think the frame would survive being cut. I think the manufacturer has custom orders available

I have not done it, but it looks like it would be possible. There are two sets of pre-drilled holes on each side that appear to line up with the holes in my metal frame.

Plastic frame adapts to fit standard doors of 1-1/4 in. to 1-3/4 in. thicknessI have mine installed into a screened in patio (installed in 2 inch frame). I'm thinking this one is for doors rather than walls. If you picked up some longer screws, I'm sure it could be installed in a wall though.

The answer unfortunately is no. The way the piece is cut out, it's just not possible.wish it was tho..hope that helps

yes, Teri, you can. My door is metal with insulating foam inside. it is a fire rated door. it wasn't ready to cut the door, but with patience, I got it done.

yes you would just have to trim the frame work, i did not chane the size but i had to set one of the main post inward and all of the post were trimed and redrilled to match the hole pattern.

It is cut metal like small screw, nail, plastic, wood. But all must be small size. It is usefull to cut that material inconvenient places.

You can cut it to any width you want. If you're going too much smaller, you might look at buying individual pieces to save some cost. I was very happy with how adaptable the system was.

Yes it can be trimmed. It is made of aluminum. I used a hacksaw and honestly cutting it to size was the hardest part of the install

Yes it can be cut, it comes in two pieces and wound be easy to shorten. I will also say its tricky to install, but when installed it is very functional and gives the shower more room.

I do not see any reason why it would not be OK for metal frame. In the worst case you can add additional 2 small screws in the existing holes. but i do not think it is neseccasry. You can also add more webbing strips to reduce the load on each one of the strips.

Unfortunately no. the bed is made to be the support. A metal frame would not fit. If you do choose this bed you will need to buy more wood for extra support. the wood supplied is not nearly strong enough and there's only three pieces

I actually just used this drill today with a 1/4 inch drill bit so I know for sure it fits. I haven't gone thru much metal with this drill but it's actually pretty good so if you have the correct drill bit and a fully charged battery I'm quite sure this would do most jobs, including a metal window frame. Good luck!

Absolutely....Just make sure a drill bit designed to drill metal is being used.

We did cut one of these to fit the size we wanted. The outside finish broke off a little unevenly when cut which wasn't noticeable when assembled, but there may be some risk of the finish damaging more extensively.
