Will this fan grip a thin 1/4" glass door well enough to support itself?

To reduce the risk of the fan tipping over, avoid clipping to surfaces that can not be firmly and fully gripped.

probably will grip but it has no ability to stay in any position except hanging upside down or laying flat on a surface. Tightening the screws on the different joints did no good couldn't keep it any of the positions it is able to be set in. Waste of money buying this fan !!!!

I have it hooked to a pole about a half an inch thick and it hold it self but I used a zip tie to make sure it doesn't fall

It would prevent the door from opening completely, but it's not designed for super thin doors. The gap is designed for doors over 1" in thickness. It does include a few small spacers (I don't recall the sizes) but they won't get small enough for a glass door. If you get creative with adding your own spacers, it may work.

As long as the top of the unfinished window is strong enough to hold the fan's weight, you should be able to mount it using the bracket.

Yes. I just put two on a 60" x 22" door and they worked great. If you don't have the weight of any glass one should be adequate.

I have mine hanging on a 1-1/4" wide door and it does not rattle, but it is not tight. It might stretch pretty tightly to 1-3/8" but no more. I didn't look to see what the other answers are.

My door is 1-1/2" and the bends of the hook fit perfect. I don't think you would want to go any thicker because of weight distribution even if you did try to re-bend. Just my opinion. Hope that helps ... if I understood question.

I would say yes. the fan is very lightweight, and the base actually has some weight to it due to the magnets that attach

My husband installed this. He said he believes it will work fine on a 2 inch thick door.

The bracket mounts on inside of door so width is not an issue, but the weight of the door could be.

The thickness is just less than 1". I mounted it where I had about 3" clearance. The fan is very quite and has done the air movement and cooling I estimated. The air movement is approximately .75 fpm at the exit. My exit area is about 37 sq in.

As long as the fan can cover at least 60% of the opening it should work fine.

If you have at least the minimum width for the fan as listed in its specifications, you can build a simple frame to hold the fan. I did this using 1 x 3 Red Oak and it worked wonderfully and it allowed me to use the Storm Guard feature to close my window when I am away. I went to the Air King site and they expressly discourage mounting the fan at a 90 degree angle to its intended installation. This is why I made a small frame within my sliding window casement. LOVE THIS FAN.

Since you van flush mount the fan it should be.no problem with a 1/2 inch mount on a flat ceiling not a pitched ceiling!

Hi, I'm sure it would help in a trailer, but a larger fan would do a better job. I can't feel a breeze at the doorway while this fan is on. Hope this helps.

It clamps (spring-loaded) so it can be as thin as you want as long as the material is strong enough to support the fan.

I believe it will. It tends to move around, though. You may want to use some type of adhesive to keep it in place.

It should be fine. It's got substantial weight to it and doesn't move around when you open or close the door
