Your postman must hate you

Possible nailed at an angle and filled? Drill a hole first.

That’s what my concerns were when I did mine. Mine is ok I believe that you can increase the tension by rotating a spring using a rod to rotate something. That’s outside of my experience Be warned that they have a lot of stored energy - I’d be very wary of DIY At least check out some YouTube...

If it helps, my family home was used in a Morse? The one where Keith Allen is the villain And my old school was in an Endeavour where Morse was undercover as a teacher

Al-Shami towards Jericho is good if you like Lebanese A mate of mine spent a few months in what’s now that hotel - although he didn’t have to pay. The natural history museum and Pitt Rivers are good. As is the Ashmoleum

There are minimum temperatures for work/schools. But not for home. As a kid we didn’t have central heating, you just dressed warm. My central heating died 10;years ago and I have not had it fixed year. I just use an oil filled radiator. Now that I have retired, I’ ll get it fix3d.

What depth do you have?

Trump is being quoted as suggesting that as there was a reward offered for capturing Maduro, and he, Trump did it, that the USa now owe Trump $50 million. He’s said that “something needs to be done about Mexico” The guy is nuts.

Don’t know if it helps but my door is a one piece Horman (?) four point locking. I fitted polystyrene to the metal faces using double sided tape covering the whole thing, using foil tape to join the sections together. Then I used the slim silver insulation fabric to cover the door, it has to be...

I would hazard a guess that it might not be artex? It looks more like that gritty ceiling paint that DIY sheds sold. I’d carefully take a sample and mail it to an independent tester who doesn’t have skin in the game

The risk is tiny You’d do more damage to health by doing anything than leaving it alone Artex had hardly any asbestos and it’s safe where it is. Worst case some duct tape over the damage is good enough. DO NOT vacuum any dust. Simply mop it up with a damp cloth and stick it in a poly bag in the...

We bought loads of them for work where we had 100’s of unskilled people using them Not been made aware of anyone falling off? Obviously they could have fallen and not mentioned it

How much level difference can you put up with? You would need to lay insulation under the carpet This means that you could have a step up into the room and or a step down to the outside (which you likely have. It could be a small step with minimal insulation or a bigger step with greater...

Any chance of a plan view showing the house/steps/boundary? And a photo? A lot of loading bays have a hinged fold down ramp that acts as a barrier when up. M/C benches tend to come with a ramp to get the bike onto it. You could maybe use that to get on, then move it for the “off” M/c benches...

I was going to suggest modifying a hydraulic motorcycle workbench . The ramp would be easier to install when there isn’t time to modify the building. With a bike lift (or similar);you could incorporate it into the house frontage to prevent theft plus add stability etc We had a massive dock lift...

You do realise that the Government doesn’t actually pay anything unless the tapestry is damaged? It’s akin to a parent signing a rent guarantee form
