Could anyone share some installation experience?

Hi, Before purchasing these struts, you need to know what the weight of the lid or door is. One gas shock of strength is 300N/67lbs/30kg, so two is 600N/134lb/60kg. If your lid or door weighs more than 65lb, we recommend you install one strut. If larger than 120lb, we recommend you install two struts. If it is less than 65lb, we suggest you enter our store to look for shocks with less power. Meanwhile, there are also some installation tips for you. The mounting point on the lid is at the 4.72-5.12 inch（120-130 mm）towards the hinge's direction, the lid will open about 90-120 degrees. The mounting point on the lid is at 2.95 inch（75 mm） towards the hinge's direction, the lid will open about 120 degrees. If these gas shocks are too powerful for you, please try moving the mounting point 0.79 inches towards the hinge's direction. If these gas shocks are too weak for you, please try moving the mounting point about 0.79 inches towards the opposite direction. Installation instructions and drawings are also uploaded on our page for your reference. Finally, any problem during installing these struts, you are free to contact us for help via amazon message. Thank you, hope this will be helpful for you. Best wishes, Vepagoo Store

Can I installed these struts under a queen bed in my trailer?

Of course, they will work for your queen bed. What you need to know is the weight of your bed, if it is 20-65lb, we suggest you install one, if it more than 67lb, we suggest you install both. If you fell it is too powerful and you have a lot of flexibility in where they can mount, you can move he mount point on the lid 0.79 inches towards the hinges's direction. When you move the installation point, the opening Angle of the cover will also be affected, so we recommend that you move less distance each time and make a record. Any problem you can contact us via this vepalift#gmail,com. Thanks, hope this will be helpful for you. : ) Vepagoo Auto

Can these shocks be used for an attic door?

It all depends on how heavy the door is and the geometry of how you install the shocks. Even though it might not take more than 67 pounds to lift up a door from its edge furthest away from the hinge point, the shocks are not designed to extend out that far. They are intended to be mounted with the extension end much closer to the hinge point, and at that position 67 pounds of thrust might not be enough to push the door up and open without assistance. Unless you have a degree in mechanical engineering you might just have to try them out.
