    Wardrobe Project

    after spending all day yesterday designing a lovely wardrobe on the IKEA site I then realized that I would not have room for the doors to open up. I will have to try to get someone to fit some sliding doors but this is proving to be a bit of a nightmare for me. The existing space is 2920mm...

    Problems fitting bedroom privacy lock

    The little knob that you use to lock the door from the inside has an Allen key to adjust it. So by design, this little hole should be pointing downwards so no one sees it. However, mine is pointing up. It was the only way I could get the door handle to lock. Can take a photo if that is easier?

    I measured them in the first place so I can't be trusted with a tape measure it would seem :(

    Roller blind too wide for recesses

    Hello So my roller blind won't fit into my bedroom window recess. Apart from mounting it on front of the Window is it possible to cut the blinds down with a hack saw? Cheers
