I'll give it a go, yes a terminal block. Its actually 115mm so reasonably good guess. I'll get it down an get it pulled through Thanks for all your help on this, I appreciate it

Really don't see the need for this cable. There is only one height for it, otherwise it'll be hanging by the cable? Obviously I see the need for the cable but can't fathom why this extra length

ok, so the only way (for me) would be to pull the cable up into the rose and pack it in there

Are we saying that it is definately telescopic then? is that what the instructions are saying?

Wife bought those in store, it'll be like the sun

Here is a pic of where I am at, at the moment. I don't think it is telescopic, otherwise it would (should) be easier to lower. That rose at the bottom connects to the shaft via the grub screws so that the weight is on the metal and not the cable I guess. The problem is where to put the cable. I...

the o product code is 3663602802075

Thos grub screws are for connecting the base to the shaft once the cable has been removed (somehow). All of the photos pn the box and all the ones I have seen online show the shaft connected to base without the cable, its crazy. I have tried pulling on it (oooeeer) to see if it is telescopic but...

so I guess I am going to have to take it down and pull it up into the rose, thats going to be a pain in the neck, not much space in there already

Hi, not necessarily electrical related but I am trying to fit a light fitting and I totally do not understand. I have attached a photo of the but I do not understand. The light is a chandelier type fitting which has a chrome rose and then a shaft that leads to the light fitting itself. What I...

I think I may have worked this out for myself, looks like anything close to the boundary has to be 2.5m at eaves height, is that the actual maximum height?

Hi I have decided to build a shed from scratch and its going to be quite a large 'L' shaped affair with room for a gym, workshop, garden stuff, camping stuff and a store for a trailer What I was looking to do was build a modern looking building which isn't quite a flat roof ie it will be...

Yeah probably not the most information I have given lol Gate is around 40kg Its 1.8m high and about 1m wide There is no post, this will be affixed to an extension wall which is made of the blocks The fixings supplied were U fixings (top and bottom, 2 of them). Unless there is some super strong...

Not too sure what I am fixing to but its definitely something that looks like breeze blocks 440 wide by around 200 deep and pretty heavy (around 15kgs I think) I have bought a really heavy gate which I need to attach to these What is the best method/fixing to use for this? Not too sure what is...

OK defo going to take down and rebuild. Looking at the regs though it looks like I can only go up to 2.5m which isn't the end of the world. I am going to do a flat roof. The current shed sits on a raised concrete slab of around 140mm . I will be extending the shed so part of it will be on the...

Odd question, would it be better to knock down and start again or beef up the existing?

Yes its a timber one, frame is 2 x1, maybe slightly bigger. Roof is thin. Walls seem to be sturdy enough but again probably not thick enough. Still not too sure which way to jump here, to gain some space I think the end result will be an L shaped shed with individual rooms contained within ie...

its going to be partly used as a home gym and workshop, will be heated in the winter when someone is in there. Unsure of whether to insulate or not

Not too sure what is under the felt, pretty sure it is chipboard though. I can certainly get the cladding off, is it really worth it though? I'll get some pics when I can get out there

Hi I have a workshop/shed in my garden which is around 20ft by 12ft. Its a pitched roof on the long side. Felt is knackered, leaks a lot Shiplap has a few gaps Original door is leaking and rotting the floor Windows are the normal pane of glass Strengthen the roof What I want to do (as cheap...
