Well if you use the template took less than a half an hour. Need good tools.

It requires a few tools like band or pipe clamps and some sandpaper, screwdriver, wood glue. It is not hard but will take a few hours putting in 20 minutes here and there. I am half way done.

It would take time and require a saw or a good bolt cutter. It would be faster to pry it open.

I would say that your door design does not meet the requirements to install this system and any attempts to tape it would end with hanging pieces of insulation panels and a waste of time. Answer: "Not going to work for your particular door" I hope this was helpful... Tom

EZ to do yourself if you've got another body to help position it for installation. in a window it is straight forward, if you need to cut a hole in the wall that is another matter. Any handyman should be able to help with the install if you don't want to do it... nice unit.

Presuming your metal door is foam core like the one I did, it can certainly be installed but cutting the metal requires a pretty heavy duty Sawzall or similar. I made a pretty big mess of the cut and the directions lead you to put the template upside down. The good news is that the large width of the frame covered the irregular and jagged edges of the cut.

it would be almost impossible in my opinion. The frame is screwed to the door from the inside. I installed it myself, and any intruder is not going to get through that way.

I'm not an expert but I was able to install them myself , just arm yourself of patience and don't try to cut corners, it takes about 2:00 hours, if you feel that you can't don't even start and get a friend or a pro http://youtu.be/Ve-kcKxbXx4 , just follow the instructions on this video

All I did was hook it inside a standard door frame. There is nothing that requires tools and you can switch to any door. Super easy. Im sure there are videos on you tube on how to install. It's really just a slide into place and nothing more

I one I -purchased jsut slide on the bottom of the door. I had to trim it though due to its length. I used a pair of pvc cutters to do the trimming.

I don't think it's that easy. Read some of the reviews and you'll find more info on how others have done it. One thing certain, I wouldn't just put screws into the typical cardboard-like panels. I'd want to be contacting some metal, so you might have to take off the door panels and see what's behind them.

There are extra parts and different instructions to install the door on either side. Follow the instructions very carefully and take your time putting this together.

This door is extremely easy to install and remove. First if all, it is sturdy, yet light. It has two simple, spring-loaded, knobs on the top, which you can tighten to install, or loosen to remove the door. Although the lock mechanism is simple to install, we did not install the lock portion, as we did not want to drill into our existing sliding door. We used a dowel rod instead to lock our patio door. Max 10 min to install first time. This is only due to the air-tight seals, which need to be manually added the first time. After that, door can be installed or removed in less than 1 minute.

It took drilling through the door, but was overall extremely easy to install. Do not follow the instructions that come along with the knocker however, at least mine were off when lining up the holes to the knocker.

It's not easy per say, but it is not impossible. If you take your time, it'll come out the way you want. If you plan on doing it in 15 minutes, it won't come out right. Just take your time, and you'll be happy with the result.
