Does it require much strength to screw it in?

It depends on how hard the wood is. If you have a battery powered drill its a snap. I recommend marking the holes and partially screwing the screws in, then backing them out. Then place the opener in position and it will be pretty easy. Of course, it also depends on a person's abilities with tools. If your hands are pretty weak, it might be good to ask a friend to do it for you. It should only take a minute. Good luck.

You do not screw it in. You secure the jar up in between the two blares and turn the jar to release the cover. That's it.

It has 3 wood screws. The points are very sharp and therefor screw into the wood very easy.

I think you are talking about the initial installation. That would probably be like screwing anything into wood. My mom needed someone else to do this for her. It does have adhesive to hold it in position while you screw it in, but you want a good installation so you can use it with some force. It's just a plastic disc with holes for wood screws to go into your cabinet underside.

Dorrie-- It takes a little effort but nothing like it would be without it. It is a great tool. If you are seriously considering buying one or just wanting an endorsement I would recommend it. WRF

We just pushed it in as far as it would go. It isn't in quite far enough to allow the screws to be installed but that has not been an issue. It was very close but we were hestitant to push too hard. We have used it quite a lot with no problems.

It just screws tighter when you turn the end, it does make it more difficult for me.

Yes it can, but clamping it tight enough to stay in place might be difficult.

Yes, you need to screw it into a hard surface with four screws which are provided.

Yes, it is sturdy but it takes a little wiggling to get it in place -- nothing difficult though.

Get a screwdriver and really get in there, it'll tighten! Just took a lil more than a few twists.

Not really, no. With some force, it might- but nothing I'd count on to use for an insert or anything.

If you use the cups, yes, you need to screw it in. But I have 3 of these in my home and it is tight enough that it doesn't budge, even with my 2 year old banging and shaking it. Just the pressure should be fine. But, even the pressure can cause a small amount of cosmetic damage.

It is fairly easy to install, but it only holds on by a few threads. I feel if you were to install and remove it on a regular basis it would eventually become loose. If you lock-tite the screws it would even be worse.

The tension screw will allow it to be drawn tighter so yes, it will stay in place.

Yes. I assembled this myself with a screwdriver. If you have a power screwdriver or drill with a bit, things go much faster. You may need help lilfting it up, depending how strong you are.

It is really strong...I don't think it is possible to remove it once it is installed.

yes, I think it will although it may not push it to the fully closed/latched positiontension is set during installation, you can increase tension if you are very strong

Yes but you need a special rachet to install it. My mechanic had one. I think it tightens to specific pound weights or something.

Think of it like a hollow-wall anchor that might hold a picture hook. Not so much weight, but when properly installed can certainly accomodate wiring and/or "wall wart" style plugs if you're running electrical.

yes, but you have to have a good amount of space and the ability to screw in heavy duty lags into a ceiling. generally not going to be a great idea, but it can be done.
