I am really grateful for your time on this crank, really grateful indeed and I am thankful for your patience. I can advise I havent changed anything in the last month but perhaps a fault has occured or something unknown. I am thinking I may have to withdraw the mechanism from the door. if I...

Thanks Crank. So the mechanism is about 10 years old and I do not have a thumb lock on the inside. I dont believe I have a slam lock installation. For the complete 10 years it has always been the case and still is the case that shutting the door alone would not engage any hooks or the...

the furniture wont be moveable, it will be secured to the wall

I am beginning to think this will be easiest, perhaps with the multi-outlet extension secured to the backboard close to the underside of the desk

I have been considering this yes (but didnt want to lead in the original post).

Hi All, I am installing a desk with drawer unit in a bedroom. The desk and drawer unit are bespoke and will be permanently secured against a wall which has skirting board at the base. Between the desk and the floor, there will be an 18mm MDF back panel. However, as I cannot remove the...
