Yes, though depending on your application, some customization may need to be done.

You should be able to make it work with sliding doors and run the wire through a 1/8" or so crack, but I would probably install another outlet inside the closet to plug it in for a cleaner look. you can add a new outlet a few inches from the exiting outlet and wire the new outlet into the existing outlet.

What Mark Lukas said, but I will add that with my luck, the outlet would line up with one of the bars, not a hole! ;-)

If you also have bare copper (ground wire) then yes, you can replace your current outlet with this one without issue. You would need to remove the current outlet, then use wire nuts to connect all black (2 existing and a new one coming out of this outlet, same for white) together, another to connect all 3 whites together, and a 3rd to connect the grounds together. The Ground wire coming out of this outlet is a green wire, this would connect to the bare copper ground wires that are connected you your existing outlet.

Yes, but you will need a professional or someone knowledgeable to install it as there are wires that need to be attached. Access to the wires is usually under the floor where the outlet is installed. The pipe fits just fine.

It can be done, with some rigging, but I don't recommend it. It is safer (and it's really not too difficult at all) to replace your old outlet. Look at the Leviton T5324-W 15 Amp 125 Volt receptacle - if you are a do-it-yourself person then you could the Leviton to replace your non-grounded receptacle. You may be able to find a video on YouTube showing you how to replace the receptacle. My recommendation would be to have an electrician replace the receptacle - a non-grounded receptacle implies to me some age on the house and if that is the case the electrician is definitely worth it - let the electrician install this unit with a new and grounded receptacle to be safe. I once had a house fire (not electrical in nature but from a gas water heater) and I can tell you the $100 to $200 for an electrician is the safest way to go ... I never ever ever want to have another house fire. Maybe you can find a nice friendly electrician from your church or place of work and they'll do it for little of nothing - replacing the receptacle and installing this surge protector should not take them more than 20 minutes at tops. Good luck Mary and happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

It would require a professional changeover. Different orifice configuration.

I would buy the base that goes with it. This way it will match up for sure. The prongs have to match up.

From the looks of it, I suppose you could but I would get another opinion by someone more knowledgeable than myself about where to install products like this. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help.

You'd need to take down the existing fixture but could use whatever wires remain (if that makes sense).

Nope, this is all ya need. I had an electrician mount it and put a new outlet, so I can plug directly to it

No. You can use bare wire with the screw type terminals although they are fairly close together. I'd recommended banana plugs though.

No, it cannot. You have to check with wherever you buy these if they will fit an old 2 hole outlet, some do.

We recently moved, so I can't locate it to tell you for sure. If I remember correctly, it only has a hole in the middle to secure to the outlet. I don't know that you could modify it without cracking it.

I haven't tried. . You can physically do it of course.. This outlet is pretty heavy for the size and my complaint is that its weight causes it to fall out of the outlet very very easily

Yes you do, but if your installer installed your unit properly you can unscrew it and install this quit easily. But some thing are left for the pros.

That wouldn't be a good idea because you will be removing a built-in protection against electrocution/short circuits and I'm sure it's against the building code. I would find another outlet to replace.
