Do the screws fasten to the bottom of the garage door frame. Or is it possible to screw it into the face plate?

I did both. Since it's aluminum it's easy to drill through. i pre-drilled holes just to keep it looking neat though.

I installed eight(8) screws in the bottom to as well as the face plate. That is the reason I had to buy some more screws.

Our installation required us to put the screws in the face plate into our steel overhead door. Went up with no issue and seals well. No bottom mounting was used.

You can always drill holes where ever you want. Then screw in the screws where you drilled the holes. I believe there are holes on the bottom.

We have them all over our house and used regular Decora faceplates with screws. We also combined them in some multi-gang boxes with other types of switches, no problem.

O.Deen: I just installed mine yesterday - unless I take a dremel to it, the faceplate is stuck on there. If you've got one that does detach, there must have been a running design change.

The screws that come with are quite long. I used alternate screws. (That's where I installed mine)

Yes they do. The inserts are independent of the faceplate. There are three module insets. Each module is a single gang.

only the screw-I did however place small pieces of hard cardboard between the metal plate and the table contact where the plate reached for more security and tighter fit

The brackets that come with it yes..I mounted mine on my roof rack. You can find different brackets that bolt in your door frame..

No. Two screws mount the hinge to the face frame; three screws are about 3/8" behind that plane and mount to the rear of the door panel. The door panel should have a 3/8 x 3/8 inch rabbet on at least the mounting edge (and usually the top and bottom edges) to create an overlay of the panel on the frame.

Yes, 2 locking screws at the bottom. Shows a demo in the instructional assembly dvd

How the two plastic frames connect together is for a door width. You could drill holes in the one piece that does not have holes to mount it to a framed opening. You need to have something to screw the plastic frames to. Unless you want to use drywall anchors.

Mine has 2 screws on the bottom, one under the label & the 2nd between the 2 lower pads. The screws are recessed in access holes, not flush with the bottom surface.

You DO NOT need to remove the screws. They are just pressure fit. Take a thin blade like a putty knife and gently work it behind the face plate that it came installed with gently pry up. It should just pop off so you can put the color plate on.

Yes, with the proper hardware for attaching the hinge and locking strips to concrete blocks. The proper screws can be obtained at any hardware store.

This has the rectangular faceplate which is installed on the door frame and the latch goes into it when you close the door. Yes, that is included. Hope this helps.

Yes. The two plates can be screwed together at the bottom where the tabs meet. I believe the screws to do his were included. Depending on the install you may need a long screwdriver to do so.

Yes. You have to remove a plate on the bottom. As I remember a screw driver is needed. Hope this helps.
