Can this be installed on 3/8" drywall?

Hi Shara. I suspect it can. I mounted one side to a stud but the other side is in standard drywall. I have 9 pots and pans and a potted plant on my rack, and all seems fine.

3/8" drywall is the thin stuff. If you can get a nice board that would go with your wall that you can anchor into the drywall with at least 6-8 anchors it would greatly strengthen the rack installation. Might be worth a try. I have done tank-less waterheaters this way but would be best to find what studs you can.

Hi, I personally don't know.. I asked my husband and he said it wouldn't be a good idea (if there's no studs.) He said when we put ours up we did attach it to studs in the wall. (Ours seems very sturdy and we have a bit of weight on it.) And he thinks our walls are 1/2" but it should work just fine with 3/4". Hopefully that helps a little. Sorry I couldn't give you a for sure answer.

No. Because when you hang the pans on it, it would make it too heavy and the screws would pull out of the wall. Ours is attached to a wood wall.

I think it is made for the standard double wall (3 1/2 inch stud with drywall added inside and siding outside). I put it in a single wall (1 inch thick), by adding a frame around the outside of the hole. I don't know how you would fit it into an 8 inch thick wall, without some kind of adjustment to the wall.

Yes, it can be installed over durock. It can be installed over standard drywall IF properly installed. Kerdi would be overkill, IMO.

Perry, I'm not sure. I just cut the hole out of the drywall based of the space required. I'm also confused by what you mean angle, how would angle affect mounting it?

It would depend on the stud spacing. I mounted it to a scrap 2x8 and then screwed the 2x8 to the studs thru my sheetrock wall with 4inch lag screws. It made a nice clean installation. You can drill thru the 2x8 at whatever stud spacing you happen to have.

Hi there, I checked my three way connectors, both of them ( I have in both bathrooms ) came with 3/8" not 7/8".Maybe try to check in Home depot or Lowe's.My husband told me it's came with that 3/8" adapter.

Cover will not compensate for the 3/8" difference. You could probably fill it in with a rubber strip. Maybe call the manufacturer and ask if they might have another solution.

it can vary based on the install. if flush with edge of hinge 3/8 of an inch.

It will most likely be too small for 3/8 tubing. I have 3/16 O.D. air tubing on it and that is a snug fit.

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.

There was def some room to give when I used this on standard drywall, but I couldn't give you an exact depth the screws allowed

I've taken out long 3 1/2 drywall screws with mine. I suspect it may be built like this inside:http://i01.i.aliimg.com/img/pb/191/520/519/519520191_385.JPGJust be sure to never use an impact drill driver with this -- use only standard drills.

The hole is 7/16" on mine, but there is a burr around the edges that might be troublesome for a rod of that diameter. The rod they supply (which is very short), fits perfectly though and it's exactly 3/8".

No, it is designed for a 3/8" dovetail. You could try an adaptor between the two.

yes but you must use the correct length of screws and anchors, e.g., toggles. You can't screw directly into drywall.

no, you will have to find some other way to mount it. The tabs provided are for half inch drywall.

Yes it can. However, the 4x8 might be over kill. You can probably get by with the 3x6, just remember to buy more drywall anchors. Neither set provides enough in my opinion.
