Gap wouldn't be wide enough and as far as I know they have to be screw fitted.

Sounds amazing, trying to get my head around how it would look.

Yes I think this will work. Cushion needed to avoid wind slamming the door shut. I'll have to find thick bungee cord that doesn't stretch too easily!

It's a standard uPVC window with push button lock and quite stiff. I definitely prefer the door to stay ajar.

We already have these on the outside to hold the doors fully open if needed but don't want any more holes on the inside.

Oh no we have tiny fan lights but they're impractical as I have to get a stool to reach them so would prefer the door to open slightly.

Could do in desperation but looks rather ugly. Yes what a shame, it is too wide but otherwise looks perfect! Opening gap needs to be about 5 cm or a 20 cm length of some kind of material to wrap between handles.

Hi. I'm looking for a simple device that would hold my uPVC french door ajar just a few inches for fresh air but not allowing my cats to get through. I really want to avoid more holes in the doors as I've already got hooks to hold them fully open. I've been searching online and my head's in a...

Thanks for your help. I don't know any tilers though and I imagine they would prefer to be instructed to do the job than sell me their adhesive. Luckily I've now found some £7.92 adhesive from the well-known DIY chain.

We have to replace one ceramic floor tile. I'm loathe to pay £13 for a bag of floor tile adhesive when I only need a few spoonfuls. Is there anything similar I can use? The sub-floor is wood so I know it should be flexible. I realise the real thing is probably the best but it's quite an old...

Does anyone have any knowledge about sound reverberating through floors within blocks. We have a problem with hearing loud walking around which is not coming from the flat above (they are experiencing the same problem as us) but very possibly from the flat above them. Is this a possibility? Can...

Yes, thanks this is near me. I'm going to ask them for a quote.

Our windows don't have uPVC beading, they have either thin black rubber or foam.

I don't have any friends or neighbours to ask that have had these so will need to use online advertisers, Yellow Pages etc.

I've now put out an email to a few companies on Checkatrade so will see how much they quote.

This is a bit scary as we'll either have to try and put it back or leave the house unsecured with a plastic covered window frame while we wait for the replacements.

Upstairs, uPVC, square leaded

I've seen a few posts but as they're all rather old thought I'd try and get an update. We have three misted/blown double glazed panes to replace. Does anyone have any online companies to recommend? Is it more expensive to go to a physical glazing supplier? I feel a bit nervous about the...

I see thank you. We'll measure up and start digging out.

I'm not too sure what concrete blocks look like if someone could send a link?! I'd happily pay £92 for the decking steps if they worked but I don't think the angle will be right or rather too steep as it's quite a shallow gradient.
