Can I repair this handle on my daughters bedroom door, the handle broke and I replaced it with a push and pull handle. Well that's now pulled out and damaged the wood.. Is there a way I can repair it.

thanks I also had that webpage open and i ordered a few more bits for free delivery, sadly the wago box wouldnt fit in the space so i was hoping a conventional (circular) junction box would work

Just before I do anything else. Thought I'd ask to see if the drywall box is in its best place? The Skirting board will be removable now to access if any problems. Would a junction box be better behind the skirting to connect the wires up? What would be the best plan of action to deal with...

Got the skirting board off and seems a enough room for the box to go behind it

OK ;) ordered the 1mm T&E, i'd rather listen now then come back and still be struggling. thanks

thanks everyone, especially terry on messages to guide me. I've taken your advice and ordered 25m of 1.5mm T&E for delivery tomorrow, means i have to get up in the loft and move all the insulation out of the way again but should have asked before i did it. So now i have the correct wire, i...

ok great thanks, first time ive done it so just want to make sure i have it my head correct, it was the switched live wire which was throwing me out and where i needed to connect that to in the junction box

ok thanks, ive done it a bit arse about face as at the weekend ive already measured and cut the cables i used 2.5mm T&E cable from each new light into one place where i was going to place the junction box, just thought i could connect all the lives together and neutrals etc in the junction box...

hi, i havent got an additional switch just all from one switch.

evening all, next job on my list is adding two downlighters and another pendant light to a bedroom which already has one central light all controlled by one switch. I've bought some 4 terminal 20a junction boxes. I've run the cables from the downlighters and the additional pendant light so...

no, they want them open (madness) as she is a teenager and its going to be aright mess but they want them open :)

thanks all, glad i asked now. so perhaps having a debate now with the wife and telling her i will need the mirror to go as far as the skirting board. so if thats the best method for me, take skirting off after they have measured up for the mirror and then put a drywall box underneath the...

unfortunately its going from floor to ceiling.

if ive read correctly the wago 222 series is classed as MF https://www.amazon.co.uk/Wago-compact-terminal-connector-blocks/dp/B0070UP17K/ref=sr_1_22?crid=F595ZELNF4R1&dchild=1&keywords=wago+222+connectors&qid=1620081324&sprefix=wago+222%2Caps%2C158&sr=8-22

is there something else which you can recommend that would work? thanks

great thankyou, i'll get some ordered from amazon... would they just sit loose in the drywall box then? these connectors...

ive just put some pictures up, the original yellow and green earth is there (when i took the original picture i hadnt put it in the connection block) when you say maintenance free connectors are those the wago type connectors

Here's how I have left the connection at the moment

ok thanks, can i use a drywall double box that was in the space originally? like your idea about plastic and cutting it so it fits inside the box.

Took a couple more picturew the mirror will be wardrobe to wardrobe
