My wall is actually 9" instead of the specified 7.5" max wall thickness. Is the 7.5" a firm limit, or can I get away with 9"?

If you install it in a wall deeper than 7.5" you will be blocking part of the side vents and I don't think that's a good idea.

Yes, it is a firm limit. If the wall is thicker than that, it will block the side vents and the unit will malfunction.

I don't know for sure, have not measured but the walls are no more than 4 inchs. 78 inches will make it fine, 213 inches many be pushing it.

Mine is already installed so I can't measure. The panel is mounted using screws with a paddle at the end that needs to be aligned flush with the panel to go into the wall opening. Once you begin to tighten the paddle there is a catch to prevent it from getting back to the flush position. It is the same design as a remodeling electrical outlet box you would find at your local Home Depot or Lowe's. I happen to have one of them on hand here at home and it would accommodate a wall thickness of 7/8". You could probably squeeze a full 1" if you backed that paddle off a bit more. Hope this helps.

I will try and help. I do not have any of the paperwork any longer so what I will say is from how mine is mounted. The wall the unit is mounted in is a typical 2 x 4 wall with sheet rock on both sides. The sheet rock is 3/4", the 2 x 4's are only 3 5/8". Hope this helps.

You will need minimum 7-8 inches. That will leave you with enough wiggle room just in case you have to get back there. If youre in a space where clearance is at a premium you might get away with 6 from the wall. Good luck.

I wondered the same before I ordered. My wall is 59" point to point. Fits beautifully. I have plenty of expansion room if needed for a wider mount space. Maybe 2-3 inches more of collapse if I had a narrower space. Hope this helps!

I am worried that my shelf might be too thick. What is the maximum thickness that the shelf can be?

You can read my review of this issue from Oct 11th. But I copied it below for your reference.Ok here is the deal...The back wall plate is only 19.5 inches wide, so there is no way that this mount will fit 24in studs.Now I did notice that the model number on the package said Ml-310B.... Not Ml-310B24 as listed in the product description. So in all fairness, I think some sellers are unintentionally attaching their inventory to the wrong product number. This is why there are some customers complaining that it did not fit their 24in studs and others saying it did. Anyways I'm returning mine for a full refund and will try ordering from a different website/seller all together. You can read my review of this issue from Oct 11th.

There isn't a huge amount of room in the "brackets" on the board. I'm guessing no thicker than 9/32. Foam board or corrugated plastic board will fit. We use solid heavyweight poster stock.

It does extend 7.5 inches from wall when installed. The glass doesn't, it's the metal ring that makes it officially 7.5

I'm guessing no. You state you need 9 feet, and the description of this product says it extends to 99 inches...which is under 9 feet.

Yes, I installed this with a 9.5' ceiling. The only option you have is to purchase longer curtains, 96". The support rod is very weak at the connection point, so extending this would only compromise it more. Unless you can fabricate your own, this is the only option available.

Lamp Plus web site says extends "5 inches" from wall. I'll try to verify tomorrow & update if different. Good luck.

No. The 9" is the exterior measurement of the envelope. This will not work for what you want.

The opening on the mounting plate is 4" high so will not accommodate a standard 5"wall plate unless it (the wall plate) is mounted horizontally.

if you want to know how thick it is, I'd say is about 1 1/2'' mine is set up on a mouting army and it doenst use much space, but if you are planning to place right agaist the wall it may be a little ticker, but still might look good as well. Hope my info was helpfull
