Hi all. My girlfriend's Dad asked if I can find these hinges. He is Polish and makes cabinets but can't get them in Poland he says. Any ideas? Thanks.

Overall about 3-4m wide x 3m long. But its awkward - my house has a few internal solid brick walls that I am planning to take advantage of. So on one end there will be a ledger beam screwed onto the party wall, then the joists will run perpendicular with the other end of them sat on top of an...

Loft boards and light storage.

Thanks which size? Timber will be 50mm thick so Im guessing at least 100mm length but what thickness?

Hi I'm going to be screwing a 6x2 beam flat to a wall to support some further joists running perpendicular. What fixings should I use to screw this into a solid brick wall please?

There are about four airbricks in the kitchen, I don't think we need that many, and its making the house colder. There is currently a gas oven, so I won't do it until we do the kitchen refurb and swap that for an electric oven. As its an older house with solid walls we get quite a bit of...

Oh sorry, I just was asking whether what Im planning to do is ok. And also being unclear on why a warning sticker was attached in the first place.

When I moved into this house there was a sticker on the boiler, placed there at some point in the past by British Gas, that said the install was non-compliant because the boiler was in a cupboard with no ventilation. However there is a whopping airbrick at the back rear of this cupboard...

Yeah the link works but then try to add to basket it errors. I'll email them. I emailed another company that had the pegler valves and they came back to say that was old picture and no longer stocked.

I saw those yeah, don't really want blue lettering all over the top of my radiator valves though.

Tried searching for those terms plus more, I'm not finding replacement caps for sale anywhere.

Hi all, Looking for replacement caps for lockshield valves in my house. The existing ones are labelled BS2767-10 Brand Centre and have a square fitting with a securing screw, and on the valve itself seems to be some sort of plastic sleeve which I can't get off (at least, didn't want to try too...

Interesting read. I too am wondering how range rating would be influenced by, or influence, the heating flow temperature dial. Is it possible a boiler that is range rated too low could not reach the higher heating flow temperatures on the dial in very cold conditions? Also how would one tell...

Just an update the pressure on running now seems to be very stable, only rising by 0.2-0.3 bar from cold to hot. I haven't run the system in anger yet though its not been cold enough, boiler temperature only set to setting 2 on the dial, so I imagine if the water is hotter I'll get more of a...

Ok system running and up to temp on boiler setting 2. Pressure very stable, climbed to just over 1 bar. Will switch off now and let it settle before checking if any radiators need bleeding. I've also tied a bag over the prv outlet to check for any drips.

I can, its an integral filling loop with a key insert thing. Will do it now.

Ok EV is pumped to 0.8 bar. Valve cap put back on. Drain valve closed and hose disconnected. System filled to 1 bar, all upstairs rads reopened, temporary EV rad filled and bled.

Cant do that unless I stand there with a tissue and a screwdriver holding the valve down - I don't have an open ended screw on/clip on schrader hose. Anyway, Ive rechecked it, it seems nothing is coming out any more. Will start refilling.

Ok system is now at 2 bar and I will wait 10 minutes.

Terry Im appreciating the help but Im trying to follow instructions from both yourself and John here. John says I should empty the vessel again which Ive now done. @Johntheo5 Ive pressed the EV valve down and emptied all the air again. The air pressure came out first, no water came out but the...
