2. What Do I Need?

To properly affix mezuzahs to your doorposts you will need:

1) Kosher mezuzah scrolls--one for each qualifying doorway in your home or office.

2) Protective cases in which the rolled parchment scroll is inserted.

3) A measuring tape and pencil to mark the spot on the doorpost where the mezuzah is affixed.

4) Hammer and nails, or industrial-strength glue or double-sided tape, with which to affix the mezuzah.

5) A prayer book or printed card with the blessing.
