Hi guys. Please take a look at the picture attached. This is the rubber grommet plugging the hole where electric cable is to be fed to the shed. The garage is 50cm away with its own CU, so im simply going to extend the ring to run to the shed and back out re-joining the garage. My...

Hi guys. The title may be a little misleading but essentially sums up what i need to do. Please take a look at the picture attached. I need to drill or make a neat hole big enough to fit 20mm conduit in the slab below the rubber grommet, with the edge of the hole only a few mm away from the...

Hi all, I am about to construct a fairly large area of decking in my back garden (approx 25sqm) however it is something ive never done before. Im planning on using 125mm x 47mm C24 for the frame and joints. The decking will be an L shape. Its two longest edges that run perpendicular to each...

Hi guys, This weekend I am going to be laying some slabs to use as a foundation for a shed. The hardcore is already down and compacted. I will be laying the slabs on a bed of mortar. Should I leave a grout line or lay the tiles butted up against each other? If I should leave a ground line...

It will be below ground level then, this is how my garage is built (the current concrete slab is what the garage is built on, i want the new shed behind the garage) and it floods every time we have heavy rain. I cant keep anything valuable in there.

Evening all. Im getting a high security heavy duty shed for the back garden. The instructions say to fit it on a level base 3.1m x 2.5m x minimum 50mm thick. The shed weighs almost half a ton without the contents. In the garden where i want it to be built, there is top soil around 25cm deep...

Hi guys, Does anybody have any tips on how to get the hinge positions in exactly the right spot on a door liner? I have the hinges already fitted to my french doors, with a fresh liner installed, and want to hang them perfectly flush top and bottom. Ive hung loads of doors, but im a diyer...

Do you have a pic or a link to what one is please? Google doesnt seem to be giving me the right thing.

I dont think ours likes either. His dad was some well known police dog from the US. We had the police round a couple of months back, even they couldnt believe the size of him. Everyone thats comes to the door almost drops one on the doorstep

Hi guys. My french doors have an ERA multi point locking system installed. There are shoot bolts on the top and bottom edges of the doors. On the master, there is a bolt where the lock is, then then above and below there are hook bolts. Questions: Whats is the purpose of the hook bolts? Looking...

The doors are effectively external 44m oak doors, but fitted internally. So i have the porch doors on the outside, step into the porch and then are presented with these doors in question that lead into the house, so no need to be weather proof, i just want them draft proof. Although the pooch...

Its not too bad. Had them hung in place for over a year, only needed a light sand to freshen up.

This what i wanted to avoid the doors arent going to be stained or finished in any way, they are going to be left natural.

Afternoon all, Is there a way to fit a timber glazing bead without visible nails? I have glued the beads on one side of the door, however on the other I was only going to tack them in place in case the window (its perspex) ever needs to be replaced, however as its oak, I don't want to spoil...

I did take a look however im not too keen on having a visible aluminum strip down the middle of the two doors. I looked to see if an oak version exists but couldn't find one. What do you guys think of this...

Thanks guys, Yes french doors with master and slave. No rebates at all and just a gap down the middle where the doors join. I was initially considering a an AQ21, i have the router bit for it somewhere that even routs a pocket for the seal to compress into, however the doors are 44mm thick...

Hi guys, What is the best way to seal the centre gap where timber french doors meet? I dont mind routing a slot to fit a seal on the edge of the door, but i dont have a lot of room to play with between the locking mechanism and the edge of the wood. They are external oak doors, but fitted...

Wont it crack with the expansion and contraction of the wood?

Morning all, What would be the best way to seal between slabs and a wood edging to avoid cracking? I was thinking something like silkaflex EBT mastic, however im unsure if it will stand up to jetwashing. Any ideas? Thanks
