The inside dimensions are 8 5/8" high, 5" wide, and 4 1/2" deep. The shrines are specifically designed to fit in a standard 2" by 4" stud wall with 1/2" sheetrock surfacing, although they can accomodate a wall surface of up to 7/8" thick. Screws under the column caps cause toggles to swing out from the sides of the shrine and tighten to grip the wall surface between the toggles and the shrine's face frame. (See photo at right, a mock-up of an inside-the-wall view of an installed shrine.)
If you consider yourself a handyperson and have the tools and the ability to use them, you may be able to install a shrine yourself. Otherwise, a carpenter could do it in a half-hour or so.
