A 25mm (1" = 25.4mm) could work but will be much tighter.<br/> The recess (hole) will need to be 1/4" (6.5mm) deep for a flush fit.<br/> I suggest using a drill press for the hole but can be carefully done by hand.</p> <p>The insert will be very tight and has ridges around the outside to grip the wood.<br/> It will (probably) need to be hammered into place.<br/> Get it right the first time because they are very hard to remove once installed.</p> <p>Also provided are two screw holes that fit #6 wood screws nicely. These will only be needed if you have the need for extra holding.<br/> The insert could also be glued in... an epoxy would probably work well.</p> <p>The keyhole is designed to accept the head and thread width of at least a #8 pan head screw. They are the common size of screw used with plastic drywall inserts. The keyhole also features a thicker area where the screw seats into place... This should make for easier installation by leaving the wall screw just a little "loose" but will tighten as the as the object is seated into place.</p> <p>Let me know if you try these and how they work out....
