Is the center tube higher than the outside edge? I need it to be flush or lower... can a plate lay flat on top?

Yes, the center tube is higher than the outside edge. I've just put it upside down on the table to verify. The center tube is about a quarter of an inch taller than the outside edge.Edit: Don't get confused by the answers below. The center of this pan *is* higher, but plates are also higher on the edge than in the center, that's why a plate can lay flat on top of this pan. We're talking about more or less a quarter of an inch of difference.

Should be flat.....That's weird may be defective or exposed to too much heat.

We choose to keep the gate on the floor, even with the bottom pressure plates only partially on the trim.We did think about potentially raising the entire gate off of the floor, however then you would loose the stability point on the floor.If we decide to get fancy we may decide to fabricate a little jig (e.g. 2 small boards) that would fit over the trim to create a flat surface.Thirdly you could potentially mount the top pressure mounts with the include cups if needed, while leaving the lower pressure plates as is.

This frame does NOT have tabs at the bottom to hold the plate. My vehicle has a pretty deep recess where the rear plate goes so it hasn't been a problem for me. I had to get one with 4 screws for my front plate. This is a decent-quality stainless frame for the money. I don't think it would be the best choice for some applications though.

Nope, because the top edges are not flush flat so you there will be an ugly gap of grounding between the tiles to the tub. You should look for tubs that is for under mount purpose instead.

hmmm, not sure. mine is flat against the wall. some stupid questions: the short side is mounted vertically and the screws are all flush?

No, it is not higher in the front. Yes, you can lay 4x2s on top and lay them flat.

Only if you welded a piece of square tubing on it, it's built to mount flush. Wouldn't take much to adapt, good idea! I may just make one like that now.

Hey LuLu...mine is flat and I use it to put things on all the time...who wants a domed lid anyway??? must be custom

I suppose you could lay it on its side, but it really is not intended to be in that position. It's rounded on the sides, so it would not lay flat.

I bought mine in January 2014, so if you have an older or newer model this may not apply. The front surface of this is flat, but slightly angled, so setting mine on the front was not stable. It stands up, but the slightest bump would knock it over onto its top. The sides however are flat and at a 90 degree angle to the top/bottom. It can stand that way and is more stable than standing on its front, but I still wouldn't leave it that way unless there were some support to keep it from falling over if I accidentally bumped it.

Yes it's square on the front and I did flush mount the top with granite counters, mine and it worked fine. The bottom is very flat so when running water it doesn't take the food particles with it - make sure you get faucet with spray nozzle!

I keep my flat iron in the center square. That's what it is meant for. I just slide one end through so the plates are open and not touching my wall and it works great! Hope this helps.

We installed it so the plate is not flush with the wall. It probably looks cool inset but most lights are not mounted flush, they are mounted out of the wall.

top and bottom are both tilted for drainage, doesn't matter which way you install it. Wife and I love this niche!

Yes, As long as you have a 1/4-20 attachment screw. I don't think it's a perfect solution for that, however. There are several 1/4-20 holes in the bottom of the plate, just nothing particularly centered...

I am not currently looking at one, however there are no ridges so it is 'flat' in that regard. But, if my memory serves the bottom is very slightly convex so it is not 'flat' as in a perfect plane with the surface it would rest on. So, explained another way the bottom is very slightly domed up, but with no ridges.
