The Henderson manufacturer got back to me and said that the crook pin needs to not only go through the shaft hole on the right hand bracket but also the wider part of the pin goes over the adjacent tube (see Figure 2 of attached) and not just abutt the tube (what I do not, see Figure 1 of...

The 100mm kingspan insulation just under the block prevents me from using using two bars two bars as I can only use one of the holes in a position of 45 degrees from facing vertically down. Do my mawl/mole grips that I put onto the central bar (see 'mawl grip' JPEG) stop the bar from rotating...

The crook pin, when inserted (see ‘crook pin(4).jpg attachment) does not lock off the shaft to prevent the shaft from rotating with the spring plug. I have successfully used the allen key and 1 toggle bar to rotate the spring plug upward (see ‘allen key and 1 pin.jpg attachment) but the shaft...

Fair enough I'm going to drill a larger 22mm diameter hole through the exterior-to-interior-to-kitchen wall to allow, in future, a larger 15mm LPG copper pipe to come through to feed both the cooker and tee off to the lounge fireplace Should I put a sheath in the resulting hole? The gas cert...

If I struggle to get a gas cert engineer to come out and repair what temporary fix should I put on the scuff to 'shore up' the scuff? Bear in mind the gas safe engineer did say there is no leak. Belt and braces approach really to make sure.

I arranged for a gas cert engineer to come round. They tested for gas leak (think they said a monometer) and there is no gas coming out they said it was fine as is. I arranged for them to come round again and drill a bigger hole through the wall to fit a 15mm copper pipe through upgrading from...

Ok so I should get a plumber round to repair it?

Could I repair using a solder kit to fill in the scruffs?

Here's a youtube video showing how to adjust the tension of a UK swing up door I can see where, on my door: -On the right hand side is the same as the right hand side in the video. I would put the nail/pin in and use a set of mawl grips -On the left hand side is the same. I would use 2 x...

I have accidentally scored (with the drill chuck) a live 10mm LPG pipe. I checked and there is NO LPG smell and I cannot hear any leaks. See attached pic with annotated area where scuff mark is. The black bit is NOT a hole just black score. The LPG pipe is just used for a gas/electric cooker...

Such as?

Here are better pics of where the spring (looks like coiled copper pipe) attaches into the block. Is there a youtube video that shows me how to do this?

Here are the pics. Might be a way to pull the cable (on left and right - see last pic) through and crimp something further up the wire. What should I do?

I have now fitted around 130mm thick kingspan insulation to the garage door and stuck roofing membrane on the inside to cover the insulation. Whilst the door still opens/closes and can be locked closed the door itself, due to the added weight, will not stay 'swung open' (swung up) and closes...

Would grab adhesive (like Soudal Easy grab) work as well to stick the membrane to itself and the membrane to the metal door frame?

The breathable membrane was stuck over the insulation. The insulation (kingspan) is stuck on the inside of the garage door.

The insulation is st I have just stuck on the breathable roofing membrane to the garage door using the carpet glue. I now need super strong tape to go over all edges and all roofing membrane overlaps. What sort of tape should I get? Something like 3M, Gorilla Tape, etc

I have a metal application gun (TS item 28840). I can leave the Soudal gun grade adhesive opened and on the gun after gluing on a test piece of block insulation (to make sure the block insulation sticks 1st). I would use the cheaper expanding foam but I need a low application temperature of...

By 'expanding foam' do you mean adhesive glue like this Soudal adhesive: https://www.toolstation.com/soudal-soudabond-easy-adhesive-foam-gun-grade/p37023? This Soudal adhesive can set at temperatures of up to -5oC which is needed this Winter as it's less than 5oC outside. Would this work as...

Would this work to stick kingspan to the interior of a metal garage door: https://www.toolstation.com/soudal-soudabond-easy-adhesive-foam-gun-grade/p37023?
