Exactly . The door stop ( as I understand it ) is in the anti slam mechanism in the horizontal header rail . I haven’t installed this yet as I don’t have the door . The instructions also ‘suggest’ screwing the metal frame from the rear which seems absurd - some kind of fixing would of helped
-
Re did the ensuite shower support .; wasn’t happy with it 20mm above finish floor ( gestimate ) . Now I reckon it would be more like 5mm ?
-
Right ! Got this fitted correctly and level apart from the opposite side of the door frame . That white is the finish so can’t fix through it . The frame is all metal with no fixings on that side or at the back !! . Can’t see any other option but to foam . Suggestions welcome ; before I foam and forget

I have already purchased a seperate Din rail box - can take 48 Qubinos - that should be enough ?
-
-
Yes ! My next question would of been height of WC !!!
-
Ok ! Think I’ll glue and screw your horizontal support and also the marine ply .
-
I like what you’ve done there - a chunky timber straight across . How did you decide height for the sink ? Might do similar as you and marine ply ontop aswell . You used mrpb on the walls not a water resistant tile backer board ?
-
Could marine ply the whole wall before tile backer board ...??
-
This is what I have. https://www.roperrhodes.co.uk/u/products/downloads/System-WM-500-600-800-1200-Instructions_V2_190503_110347.pdf Unit with sink will be heavy - surprisingly I.e worryingly it hangs on some simple brackets ( guess I was expecting some sort of metal floor fixed frame ) Apart from adding more stud and noggins - anything else I should do to make this a rock solid fixing ? Assume I still tile the wall fully before fitting . Walls were currently just due tile backer board
-
Yeah the regs / interpretation do seem a bit random . Think I’ll go with a loft AAV at the end of a horizontal run ( though AAV mounted vertically of course ) . Can always add an external stench pipe off the main drain if non interested BCO insists .
-
The freeview checker suggests it’s good . Though a 2 storey build ; 1 level is below ground so ‘height’ might be an issue .
-
Punted for 30 quid - can always return . Stay tuned ( groan ? )
-
No idea ! . The house next door ( which we use to own ) needed a booster ... Might take a punt . Stick it on a long stick and see if signal is stronger at front / rear or side of property .

You can tell it’s Sunday as I think about a multitude of things ! I don’t want a traditional roof Aerial . AFAIK I can’t put one in my loft as the foil backed celotex will not help a signal . looking at this type of thing https://www.diy.com/departments/tristar-outdoor-dome-digital-tv-aerial/571249_BQ.prd?ds_rl=1272379&ds_rl=1272409&ds_rl=1272379&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI6N6FzcLW5wIVCbrtCh24SQHREAQYBSABEgImvPD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds Are they any good ? . Presume unlike a traditional aerial you don’t orientate - just plug in and go ?????

Ah confused myself again ! I’m sure the architect isn’t as clued up ... There’s lots of suggestion that you shouldn’t have an open stench pipe . Indeed you can even get an external AAV that sits on the stench pipe .. I don’t really want to penetrate the roof for a stench vent if it’s not necessary . Can I come off my WC internally ; take a pipe up into the loft and ‘joint’ it towards the loft hatch ; put an AAV ontop ? Makes access for the AAV easy , it’s higher than any cistern - but does it have to be a straight run ? i.e can the pipe work be horizontal for a bit ?
-
Ok ! umm ‘d and ahh ‘d about this . Stench pipe will be internal - so a 4inch pipe off the main internal drain ok ? Can’t find any regs about where it’s vent should ( or shouldn’t ) go on the roof ! - assume not critical then .... Architect wants stench pipe and AAV
-
Erm - not sure ! Qubino z wave relay can supply 200w I think . It’s not a problem will get sparky to explain - just wondered ...
-
Quick question . If I have some DIN rail relays can I assume I don’t need an RCD per DIN ? . I.e the DIN can share 1 consumer unit fuse ?
-
Well ! I will need to stack units above each other . As I have radial cabling per room ; it adds up . Just upstairs ( above ground ) from memory it’s about 14 ; so will exceed 20
-
Lol ! Must have found them at the same time ! Appreciated!!
-
Just found this ! width 292 mm ? https://www.consumerunitworld.co.uk/wylex-nmdrs20sslhi-20-way-dual-rcd-high-integrity-consumer-unit-1883-p.asp?gclid=eaiaiqobchmimq39_ivu5wivibptch0fbgeueaqyciabegi0zvd_bwe
-
Yeah I looked at this type of thing ; width was 40cm + ...
-
Plenty of height in man cupboard to use. But width is tricky; not on site at the moment but 30cm is probably max.... Also I'll need lots of units - if I can stack them vertically it's not an issue.
