Question

Where should the height of the mezuzah be set?

Answer

The mezuzah should be placed at the beginning of the upper third. If it was placed above the upper third, it is kosher. However, if it was placed below the upper third, it is not kosher. Therefore, care should be taken when placing it at the beginning of the upper third not to place it below the upper third. When it is difficult to be precise, it should be placed slightly above the upper third to avoid the concern of placing it slightly below the upper third.
