This will be a new installation. So, what would be the optimum installation height if my porch is one step down from the threshold.

Stand at the door, on the inside; stare straight ahead and make a pencil mark at your eye level. You're going to want the display within about 6" vertical of your eye level. Now, measure the step down from interior floor to porch height. If you measure the pencil mark height off the floor and add the step height, you will get the center line of your vision on a visitor. You'd like to see the center of the face, which is about 3" less than the height of the person. You have to figure what average height of visitors you expect, but something like 5'-10" might be typical (smaller, maybe not a threat?), which means their face is 5'-7". Compare that to your measure of your eye-line from the porch height. Move the peep hole position to try to center on the visitor face, but realize that the further you move the screen/hole location from the center of your vision, the more difficult it is to see the screen well.

I love these lights. They are great. But at 16 feet, you will have 8 feet left over in your application. Right now you have to deal w/ 4 feet on either end. If you double up the last 4 feet, it will look silly. The easiest thing thing to do is to wrap around the porch ends and follow the porch roofline for 4 feet on either end.Another way to accommodate this is to might be to buy three strings and double them up (staggered, of course) which will leave you with 1 extra foot to deal with at either end. (3x16 = 48, 48/2 = 24, 24 - 22 = 2). You could build in some slack between successive hooks and absorb the extra length within the 22 foot run. I love these lights. They are great.

I don't have a porch, but our eaves hang lower. We don't have any problems with the light fixture. Still very happy with it.

When readjusted to the lowest notch which is how it is installed here, the space is about 2 and 6 or 7/8" You should have more than enough space, but you will have to adjust it to the lowest setting.

I am not sure how high off the ground it should be attached. My light is about 3 ft above the porch deck which works for me. The literature says the sensitivity range is about 3 meters as I read it. I have done several sensitivity tests with my light and the consistent range is about 1 meter. Maybe if the light was mounted higher the sensitivity range might go up, but its 1 meter for my installation. Good luck!

At 0.5% incline the deck is 10 3/4 inches.... Measured where your feet should be on the deck...

You can install it at any height you want. I installed ours a half inch off the floor for the same reason.

I have not installed it as pictured. I purchased it to install other than as shown in pictures due to position of my second story porch.

Just purchases two if these gates for my porch to confine my dogs. The gate is 27 1/2" high.The installed height will depend on how far off the floor you mount the brackets. I have Dachshunds and Chihuahuas so U mounted my low so they could not go under the gate. It is mounted 1 1/2" off the floor (or deck in this case). That now makes the installed height 29". If your dog is bigger, you will be able to raise the mounting brackets high enough that your dig cannot go under and not hopefully not jump over. So far very pleased with the gates. Only complaint is one of the set screws would not set as it was stripped.Hope this helps. Just purchases two if these gates for my porch to confine my dogs.

It will be outside the design specs (and building code) for the prodiuct. The rule of thumb is 1 foot per inch of rise so you really need an 8 foot ramp.

That is fine. I actually mounted my cover incorrectly and it lifts flush with the edge of my spa. I also have about 10 inches to my fence. Not the easiest thing to install. You should really plan it out but it is so much better than the one you lift by hand. I am so glad I purchased it.

1 3/4 inches so you would probably want a little more than that for clearance.

Although the frame height is 44", your installed height will have a good chance of being higher. Look at not just the Frames but the height required for the adjusting legs etc.

The way I determined the correct one to purchase was to measure from the top of my dock where i would bolt the unit on, to the bottom of surface under the water at low tide. I needed the four step ladder, which worked out well. Hope this helps!

We are using the sensor at the front door and do not want everyone on the sidewalk (40 feet away) to turn-on the porch light. We know that when set to minimum it is 20 feet, but we do not know the range of maximum setting.

It is 7.5 inches from Holes to ground, However you may need 1.5 inches clearance in addition to install it

I think the instructions have a recommended height. Remember whatever height you choose is where the thermostat will sense the temp.Mark
