We've just replaced some stage lighting in our club (Germany). We installed some LED panels, 305w each. 8 in total. All wried with a plug. All of them have failed within 3 weeks of being installed, The failures are either half the panel stops working, the fan stops working/light stuck on white...

See attached image, I want to know how to achieve this. Where is the glass fixed? I know you can get channel for frameless glass balustrade's but I've seen a few examples like this where the glass does not appear to fit in a channel, but it's not clear where the fixings are. The plasterboard...

800mm? that depends on the type of hob, and the manual states 500mm. The wall units are 1000mm tall are the ceiling are high.

Got this extractor from ikea, https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/doc/assembly_instructions/underverk__aa-725509-6.pdf I want to run it in recirculation mode. But I'm totally confused, it still requires ducting out of the kitchen cabinet? can someone have a look please, my cabinets are flush to the...

I didn't ask him to move the backboxes. He did it himself for reasons unknown, he assumed I was using nice brushed sockets all along as most people tend to do when fitting a nice expensive new kitchen.

Having a debate with my builder(I'm the customer). He's fit 25mm backboxes *completely* flush with the plaster so getting any nice sockets to fit is nigh on impossible. He's blames me saying I should have provided the backboxes myself ? The fact is though, the metal backboxes were already fit...

Planning out a kitchen for an integrated washing machine, does anyone know if a 40mm waste pipe can run horizontally behind it? if there enough depth

OK, how do I get the old waste out? just a case of brute force?

Waste was leaking on my old steel bath. When the bath was emptied water is getting out through the overflow holes in the waste and leaking down the thread. The connection between the overflow pipe and the bath waste thread was not good. I have no idea how the black plastic ring is supposed to...

Painted the outside of the house, got some paint on the external pvc pipes. Best way to remove it? white spirit isn't doing the job.

My mum wants a porch. House is detached and about 10 metres back from the road. Is it the norm to get an architect to do a porch design? we want it to match the house. If we just get builders round to quote, everyone is going to be quoting on their own ideas so it makes sense to get an...

I need some satin/stainless 100mm butt hinges for use an exterior out building. Bought these ones http://www.toolstation.com/shop/Ironmongery/d170/Fire+Door+Hinges+%26+Seals/sd3101/Grade+11+Ball+Bearing+Fire+Hinge/p99736 in satin but they're already rusting which is weird because isn't grade 11...

Had some external decoration done, the contractors removed the cable clips holding the incoming power cable on, and they've lost some. Any idea where I can get some of these clips/clamps?

That's not my gate. I said "like this", the construction is more or less the same, double angled brace etc. I used t hinges.
