The description says that it can be hard mounted to something. Does it have to be in the orientation shown? Can it be mounted vertically or flipped over (so the key pad is facing the ground)? Will it still open if mounted in various positions?

It may be mounted in any position, however you must be conscious of any obstructions that may hinder your ability to access the interior of the safe. you must also be able to comfortably access the key pad or fingerprint feature, depending on which model you purchase. The door is hinged approximately 1/4 in above the actual bottom of the safe so if it is mounted on a carpeted surface, there should be enough clearance for the door to operate correctly.

I don't think there should be any problem with mounting it upside down. Except of course that when you open it you are in risk of dumping everything in there on the floor...

That's a good question! I don't recall seeing anything in the description about it, and honestly, never thought about it. As long as the steamer does its job, I had no reason to turn it upside down to look. But, since you asked, I did turn it over to see. It looks to me like there are 3 small vent holes - one in each <^> right angle section (sorry, thought I could get angular shape via keyboard symbols, but guess not!) Two of the vent holes look similar to the recessed screw holes and the third one has a protruded plastic hood that partially covers the hole, which would cause the steam to go outward, rather than downward, I think.

The mount has a screw which openes/closes 2 plastic flaps. The flaps are shown straight in the product image and not opened up. It essentially uses the pressure exerted from the opened flaps to keep it in place. It doesn't "sound" secure, but stays in very well.

Larry, the pad is about an eighth of an inch thick (made of hard board - you cannot push a pin into it) and its plain. Since it's out of hard board, you cannot mount anything on it except for just laying something on it, unless you drill a hole through it. The pad is also plain, no slots, no mounting hole. Hope this help.

No you can't. That is one of the many issues I have with it. I wouldn't recommend buying. The key pad is loud. The faceplate is made of cheap plastic. The battery compartment is also plastic and broke the first time I opened it to place the batteries in. The outside bottom portion has no cushion and it isn't smooth so it will scratch a desk, nightstand or whatever you place the safe on.

The proper orientation it should be the way it looks with the Velcro closure in the bottom, but I will think depending what are you using this for you could set on the side as horizontal position.. I think I would if I had the need for...

Hi BekahThanks for reading my review. The case is flexible enough to fold back so you can hold it in portrait orientation. Since the keyboard has an on/off switch and is easily removable you don have to worry about accidental key presses. I hope this answers your question. Thank you.Mark

It doesn't rotate. It opens up to 110 degree angle. So you have keyboard in front of you always.

You can mount it upside down or right side up to get the door to swing in any direction you want. It doesn't appear to matter. There are no numbers or text on the door. Just two key locks and the quick entry lock.

No... It fix mounts under the desk. I had flipped it over to extend out the front, but it's so low to the legs, that sitting that far out from the desk made it an obstacle so I put it back on per instructions. I used an iMac on it so the keyboard worked out for me on the desk surface, but have since purchased the desk I originally wanted, so I use this primarily as a laptop desk in another room. Honestly, it's a cheap "get something now" desk that served its purpose. But I was happy to get my setup on my new desk. Hope that helps.

It works best being in a horizontal position. It could be positioned vertical, but would not work very well. There also has to be a space between the device and the desk so one can open the front door.

Yes it can be mounted upside down. I had an electrician install my light he asked which orientation I wanted it to be mounted. It had't occurred to me that it could be facing down.

Not flippable - the knobs and switches are hard-wired to the board, and the board inserts into the housing via slots which are at the bottom only - also the heat sinks are screwed into the housing through the bottom. You could mount it upside down...? I would.

You don't have to mount it upside down. Probably don't want to, see the configuration of the handle, so that it is easy to grasp when you are going up the stairs. It will pivot to the side to fit against the door if mounted the correct way. The model that I purchased a couple of years ago would pivot either way, with detents left, right and forward for storage and use respectively.

I have used this mount in different positions. It works for me. I have used it upside down.
