Does the wall anchor allow for a gap between the unit and the wall (to account for baseboard moulding? Is it secure?

Make sure you use the anchor properly by placing directly into a stud, or using a drywall anchor. But yes, it's very secure. It does allow for some space for the baseboard. There isn't really a noticeable gap behind it, and the unit does not have a noticeable lean. The room I have them installed in had basic, low-profile baseboards. I'm now sure how it would work if you had bulky, ornate baseboards/trim. I'm very pleased with these units (I have 2).

Yes it does allow room for a molding and as long as you secure the bracket properly to the wall it is secure..

No. The back goes against the wall and it comes with a backsplash that we glued onto the wall that would take care of any small gap.

I intalled my unit securing it to the wall studs whenever possible and by blocking behind the drywall. This way my unit is very sturdy and will stay that way for years.

You would definitely need to anchor both end to the wall and possibly think about something to add rigidity on the straight expanse. We set our up as a "U" shape around the dog door in the garage and had to add aluminum angle iron to strengthen anywhere two panels were straight

No, because the plastic part at the top actually hooks over the molding and secures in that space between the molding and the wall. My suggestion would be to get one of those pullup bars that screw into each side of the doorway. I would not recommend this product.

It will mount as securely as the wall behind it allows for, and I have used anchors. No wobble and that is a good thing as the magnet is strong.

I would say there is a gap. Only the sides could come close, and they do. But my baseboard prevents them from actually touching the walls. And the top of the unit extends less than 1/2 an inch further than the sides of the unit. The back of the unit is not corner shaped and can't touch the wall. I personally don't want it to touch the walls because I need a small space for the cables and wires to come out and go into a box I have for the outlets. I hope this helps.

I have mine attached to vinyl siding. Has gaps between. Must have solid wood to anchor lag bolts. I have brackets spanning two rows of siding to give level surface across high points. Held up very well this past winter.

it does need a couple of anchors to the wall, but that is really necessary so it remains stable when loaded with items. it is fairly easy to do. this cabinet is really roomy and worth the effort.

No. It is secured with a screw system. It is very stable. I have not had any concerns about.

Not sure what you're asking. The anchor needs room to expand. I would recommend the RES fastener. What is the wall substrate? I've installed bars inalmost any situation, but more information would help. What is the quality/ thickness of the fiberglass?

Yes, the spacing is set so that it should be the right distance to screw into two studs. If you don't screw into the studs I would be seriously concerned it would fall off the wall because it's really heavy.

Yes. As with some of the comments on it not being of quality, I found it to be fine. Anyone not taking time to secure it to the wall will not be happy.

Not sure since my wife's is mounted. It is slightly smaller than the chrome part that attaches to the base that is screwed to the wall. Recommend securing the base to a stud.

Not at all. The role rests against the wall on the back side which stabilizes it. I am very happy with it.

Yes, but once you remove the wall plate and mount this onto the outlet box it will not be against the wall since they failed to recess the backside like the original face place so it can wobble a bit when inserting and removing cords. It would have been so simple to avoid this problem if it was better engineered. You will have to make your own shim around the back of the box to make it secure. I plan to not be unplugging cords often so I may just glue some appropriately thick wood on the back to fix their design flaw.

Yes. This base secures well. Be sure to use the proper screws per hole. First mount I could finish bolt action cause one screw was single thread through. Otherwise, perfect!
