What is the meaning of Mezuzot?
'Ot' is a Hebrew suffix, which denotes plural. In Hebrew: One Mezuza, many Mezuzot. The correct way, of course, should be Mezuzot, however the use of Mezuzahs to denote plural in English, has become prevalent.
Are Mezuzah cases empty?
No. each Mezuzah case contains a Mezuzah scroll. Two paragraphs from the bible are written on each Mezuzah scroll. The first is taken from Deuteronomy 6:4-9, and the second, from Deuteronomy 11:13-21.
Are there any rules about how Mezuzah scrolls should be written?
According to Jewish Orthodoxy, Mezuzahs scrolls must be handwritten by a rabbi, who was ordained to write scriptures and holy books (Sofer Stam). There are intricate rules, delineating how Mezuzah scrolls should be written.
What if my Mezuzah scroll is printed and not handwritten?
According to Jewish Orthodoxy, only a handwritten Mezuzah scroll is considered valid. However, it is common in other Judaic movements, to suffice with printed Mezuzah scrolls too.

Mezuzah and Mezuzah Cases Questions:
What is the origin of the word Mezuzah?
The word Mezuzah (also written: Mezuza in singular and Mezuzahs, Mezuzas and Mezozot in plural) first appears in Deuteronomy (Sefer Dvarim), in chapter 6:9. God commands the Jewish people to hang his words on the doorpost of every Jewish house. The word 'doorpost' in Hebrew is Mezuzah.
What is the meaning of Mezuzahs today?
For some reason, through time, the name Mezuza, came to symbolize the Mezuzah house, instead of the place where the Mezuzah house should be hung. This transcription is wrong for two reasons:
As mentioned earlier, Mezuza is the places where the scroll should be hung (the doorpost).
The Mezuzah scroll (and not the Mezuzah case) is the Mezuza.
Does it matter what material the Mezuzah case is made of?
Mezuzah cases come in a huge variety of shapes, sizes and colors, and are made of different kinds of materials. The bible says nothing about what the Mezuzah case (also called Mezuzah house) should be made of.
What about the size of the Mezuzah case?
Mezuzah cases usually are up to 12cm long and a few centimeters wide.
What is important to know, when affixing a Mezuza?
The Mezuzah house should always be hung on the right plank of the doorpost (the right side, when you enter the house), at a slight angle.
Why the angle?
In early times, when eminent rabbis deliberated how Mezuzah cases should be hung, they couldn't decide, whether the Mezuzah cases should be hung horizontally or vertically. After reaching a cul-de-sac, they decided to compromise – it was decided that neither way should prevail and that the Mezuzah cases will be hung between horizontally to vertically.
