Good morning. Not sure where to post this. I have recently erected one of the above sheds but I am looking for help with how to fit shelving/tools etc. The T-Section aluminium struts seem to be the obvious but so far I haven't been able to find any independent supplier of the necessary bolts...

Hi, have checked and there is a four-pin connector. A couple of the diagrams I have looked at show it needs an additional PCB but not sure about that. Assuming it doesn't then the next thing would be to find a light of the correct voltage and pin connection. No idea where to look for that.

Thanks for the input. Yes, that looks the same. I will have to take another look at the PCB and see if it has the external light connection as the model number on the diagram you posted is different. I was unable to get any help from either Gliderol or Somfy Products who were the manufacturer...

I have the above fitted to my roller door and the courtesy light in the control unit has failed. I have not tested the circuit board containing the actual LED lights so I can't be certain it is the light board that is faulty or whether there is a failure on the main circuit board. I am trying...

Thanks, it's not powered by battery

I open the door with a remote as I pull onto the drive so hopefully the light will be on as I back into the garage.

Right, in simple terms I want to have the main garage light turn on when the garage door opens as the courtesy light in the control panel is broken and cannot be replaced. The rear entrance to the garage could be a simple on/off switch as the PIR would control the light from the front, even...

The other switch could possibly be done away with as hopefully, the PIR will pick up motion when someone enters the back door. Alternatively, if possible, the second switch could be modified just to be a simple on/off. My original thought was to have an Alexa-activated switch as the garage door...

Yes

I should have included the following.

Good morning I have a single gang 2 way switching setup in my garage (see image). I want to replace the light switch near the garage door with a PIR as the light in the Glideraol control box has failed and can't be replaced. Any guidance as to how to make the wiring change would be much...

Hi, this is the state I have been left in. I have switched the pump on again to see what happens. My wife and I are thinking seriously of having the pipe work changed back to how it was originally i.e pump only serves the shower in the bathroom everything else is gravity-fed apart from the...

Hi, don't know size/capacity of the water tank. Not sure if I did this right but I used a bucket that has litre markings and filled that from an outside tap. The max capacity was 10 litres and this was achieved in 54 seconds. With another tap open there wasn't much difference, it got to 10...

Thanks will try your suggestion and get back with the result.

Thanks, at the time of the water leak Anglian Water checked the pressure and it was Boundary box is 3 bar static, 2.6 bar combined at 15 lpm. Rear garden is only showing 1.5bar static drops to below 0 when tap open. The rear garden is now 3 bar as per the boundary box since the leak was...

Thanks, not sure about the larger tank as it will need a new "shelf" to stand on as the current one would be too small.. Perhaps it is the 3/4-inch ball valve he was talking about. Food for thought. Assume I would not need to change any other pipework??

My wife and recently experienced a very bad underfloor (concrete) leak from the main inlet which our insurance company refused to pay out on as they said it was ground movement (our bungalow was built circa 1960). To repair, the concrete floor had to be chased out and a new poly pipe fee...

Thanks for replies. First answer is that insurers state not accidental damage and no water damage to property. This is ignoring any potential "damage" caused by a quite severe leak over a fair amount of time. Actual damage to the pipe can't been seen as it is too deep in the ground to be...

I am in the midst of a dispute with my insurers regard damage to the main copper water feed. The problem first came to light when we could hear water running in the bathroom. We employed a plumber who removed the shower tray etc but could not indentify the source of the "leak". He then made a...

Thanks do you think the Leyland paint will be Ok to apply to it??
