Could this unit be put in sideways? (because of space available)

I'm not a professional electrician, but I don't see a practical reason why it couldn't be installed sideways. However,everything I do, I do to code. So if you have space issues, you might be in violation of code spacing from unit to floor, unit to side wall and/or unit to door/trim/framing etc. Some codes may seem silly. To me, codes for a heater for safety clearance seem reasonable.

I think the unit needs the bottom rack for stability. You could probably forgo the front and side shelves.

Never thought of it! Horizontally? Uummm, guest u could BUT u would only have one shelf and I do not see the point of getting this bookshelf. However, I do remember seeing one that would be more ur thing. The bookshelf is all blocked off, so no matter which way u put it, u can use the shelves!! Give me some time and will find the name and order # for u, if they Still have them. Will Let u know.

Of course the receiver can be placed sideways, but with NO mounts built in, you will have to use an outside one. I'm sure everything will still work if you place it sideways.

I'd say no, because then the hook system would also be sideways. You'd have to fashion some sort of custom hook set up.

Yes you could. The sides of the are flat so multiple units together will look really nice.

I have it mounted horizontally, can't remember if it could be turned vertically.

I have mine mounted horizontally, but I don't see any reason why you couldn't mount it vertically.

Yes. But the unit would not be flush with the wall. Rather it would sit on a mounting bracket (included) and be perpendicular to the wall.

It could if you don't install the shelves on one side. You may need to take off the front wheels.

I believe you can. I do have it on the wider side however. After trying several others, this was the sturdiest and no assembly required, nor will it break. Amazon is wonderful about returns, so you should try it.

It can be assembled in either direction but PLEASE DON'T BUY THIS JUNK. READ THE REVIEWS!

I'm sure you could. The base is square so I don't think it would matter in which direction it is installed.

It could but it wouldn't be flush. It would not fit all the way back as a traditional corner stand would, but it wouldn't take up nearly as much space as a regular rectangular stand would.

Yes. Mine is hung vertically. Instead of using the hanging hardware that comes with it I used command strips. Not sure if the hardware allows for bidirectional hanging though.

Installing it upside down, that works well for me. If you do not have enough space, you could tilt it a little.

If you have enough room yes. I threw my unit in the trash, so I cannot measure it. Sorry.
