my door is only1" thick. How do I take up the excess?

I'm not sure you can take up 3/8". This is designed to fit 1-3/8"-2-1/8" door. Suggest you locate viewer with the proper dimensions for your needs.

You'll need to have the door bored to 2-1/8" diameter. This is something a good carpenter or door shop can do for you, probably beyond the ability of a DIY project.

Hi, actually I was not able to fit it into my door. There was a different strip installed before. So I ended up with just buying the old type strip.

My hardware came with 3 different pairs of screws. One pair is 1-3/4" long. My door is 1-1/2" thick, so I used the shortest pair in the package.

I just measure the opening on the "over the door" hanger and it looks like it will no go over the width of about 1 and 5/8.

The thickness of your door shouldn't be a problem, but the height probably would. You might want to consider constructing a wooden bracket for the tower. It is worth the extra effort.

My door is also 1 3/4" thick. The instructions have no commentary as to how anything goes together, at least mine didn't, however after going over the parts at length, I realized they included (2) sets of (4) bolts that go through the door. One group was for thinner doors and the other (4) was for a door such as mine (1 3/4"). I would imagine 1 3/4" is about the max...Hope that helps...sorry for the delay,computer was down. Merry Christmas!

I don't know the exact thickness but if your doorway is tight, your door likely won't close completely. The hooks are pretty thick.

In a pinch, you can improvise by wrapping your band around any object that is much too large to fit through the door and will not scratch the door ( a rolled-up towel will work, and you can put a knot in some cord material and make a loop ) and use this for any kind of stretching (it's best to do this on the side that does NOT open towards you -- both to keep you from pulling the door open, and in case anyone else may open the door by mistake).

Yes. My door has the same thickness. Do not over tighten it by screwing it in with too much force. if you do you will crack the mirror inside and it will then be useless as my first became. I purchased another as this was my error. other than that my and I are very happy with this product..good luck!

Yes, you just cut it to size. Also, you want to put it not just on the horizontal, but verticle sides of your door.

I can provide you with the information you are looking for but technically the question you are asking is not relevant to what you are looking for. When you open up the hinge to accept the door or gate you are using there is a slot created between the bent tabs that hold the hinge pins/springs. That opening is the restricting factor that dictates how thick of a door/gate it will accept. That slot is 1-3/8" so it will accept up to that thickness. Hope that helps

it would be a squeeze- possibly not wide enough... also when door is installed, not much room to walk through opening as a human!

Our doors are 1 5/16" thick, and there is probably a 1/16" gap left. If your doors are biggerr than that, then you may have to look for an alternative.

My door is about 50 lbs or so. It is a 7 foot door and thicker than normal (1 5/8") so it is robust! A shorter door, same weight, might work.

You have to be creative. you will still want the magnets to line up so if you want the opening in the middle of the skinnier doorway, start there (adhere the top of the meshes making sure the magnets are meeting and the bottom of the mesh is barely touching the floor). then place the velcro on the edges of the door opening (door frame), then peel the backs off of those velcro strips on the door frame and stick the mesh to the sticky back. then trim any excess. if you're a seamstress, you can measure and put a hem on where you plan to put the velcro for the edges of the door frame. should be a relatively easy but detailed project. OORRR... if you don't want to trim the excess and there's enough wall to keep the mesh spread out, you can just attach the velcro to the edges of the mesh to where it lands on the wall.
