Thank you for your question! The cut-out width of the Large Wall Entry Aluminum Pet Door is approximately 12", so it should fit between the studs just fine.

Hello! The rough cut out that the PetSafe Wall Entry Pet Door requires to be installed in is 11-7/16" w x 18-1/8" h, so you should be fine to install the pet door between your wall studs if you have 14" to work with! The frame dimension is just the outside frame, whereas the rough cut out is the actual hole that will need to be cut through your wall. I hope that helped!

Aloha A C, Mine fit great between the wall studs that were sixteen inches on center. A little sloppy so I used some shims on one side due to it being an older condo and built in Maui. Height is no problem, just make sure you know where the wires are at in the wall. Depth will be a problem installing it in a 2x4 wall with insulation. Your will have to cut the insulation out behind the safe. It took me less than fifteen minutes to install it. I love it. Aloha, Captain

Studs are normally spaced 16" apart on center.The unit fits in between very tight.There's approx. 1" of lip or flange area around the opening.Nice unit.

Thank you for your question! The cut-out width of the Medium Wall Entry Pet Door is 9 7/8", so it unfortunately will probably be a bit too large to fit between the studs.

I did. Because it was 24" long and the studs in my wall are 16" apart, I decided to install the rail diagonally so that both ends could have at least one screw go into the middle of a stud.

I wouldn't advise it. My widest component is 17" & fits fine but when I measured 19" you would only have 1/2 an inch on each side which means you would have to put the component in the unit before putting the doors on. You could probably do it if you left the doors off.

Not with the hardware that can with mine. The thickest the door could be with the hardware that was provided would be 1 3/4".

Yes, I have this and my doors are 36". You won't have to trim it down so it will be easy to install.

It is designed to fit between the studs in the wall so has to be real close. Studs are 16" on center normally which would be 14 1/2"" width. Mine fit no problem cutting the Sheetrock to the edge of the studs. Plus it overlaps the Sheetrock

Yes. Not much but inch or two. I can check if you give me exact distance of studs.

yes, but not the best. as you can use this for 24" through 36" door but they were good enough for me to do it. Wish they were better

In my case I drilled two screws 32 inches apart. I think that's the distance between every other stud. I should of put 3, but it has been working with two ever since I put them 2 years ago. My kids hang their heavy backpacks instead of coats and we put heavy stuff from time to time on top of this entryway. However, this entryway is made of cheap quality but you get for what you pay

That depends on what "just under 36" means. The door should work well with openings as narrow as 35 5/8". Any narrower than that and you may have a hard time opening and closing the door, because the side with the Pivot (Hinge) could rub against the frame/jamb when you try to swing it. If that happens, you could try rounding the edge of the door that is rubbing (by using some sandpaper, or if you're handy and have a small block plane, you could shave off the edge.Hope that helps. Good luck.

As long as you have 16 inch on center of your studs your fine. If more you can brace it.

Simple answer is YES. But I would consider that a 14" depth will shrink your opening when the door is in the open position. What I mean is that because of this hinge design the pivot point must move inward on the cabinet for every inch of width in the cabinet(door). I built a 7" deep x 30" bookshelf/door and my pivot point was at about 6" from my threshold. I would say with your dimensions your cabinet will have to have an almost center pivot point to clear the threshold, leaving only about 8" of clear view or walk through on either side. That seems small to me. I would consider a smaller depth for the cabinet or utilize a different hinge design if it is an outward opening use. Hope this helps. Simple answer is YES.

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.

standard 16 inch on center studs have 14.5 inches space between studs. This unit requests a rough opening of 14inches. Since your rough opening is .5 inches too narrow it may not fit. After buying the cabinet and it doesn't fit you can always notch out .25 inches from each stud's inner surface using a flat head screw driver and a hammer or a dremel tool if you have it. May be tedious. This is how door latches fit flush with the wood.
