Hi, Give it some time, you can always butcher it later.

Good Luck, Wood butcher.

Entry doors can be harder to close if you have a storm door with the glass panels closed.

usually you cant notice the corner seals , they appear to maybe be in backwards and not tucked behind the compression weatherstripping.

Thanks - corner seals do indeed look to be installed incorrectly. Will see if having that corrected takes care of the small gap.


We don’t have a storm door on this door.

The cool down light is on at the start of a run as part of the indication of the full cycle sequence that will occur. It's steady at the start, blinks when the cool down phase begins. Per the user guide.

This is rather 'out there', but are the clothes coming out of the washer fully spun dry or can you tell that they're the same dampness as a month ago?

Hi, I have a similar problem. My wife fell a few weeks ago, I'm thinking to install a grab bar between the doors so we have something to hold on to as we step down.

Just an Idea,

Good Luck Woodbutcher

I think what has to be done is to put a layer of concrete in front of the aluminum door sill to make the sill even from the back to the front, so I can step my foot on it squarely and not have to twist it to the side like I have to do now. Then have the porch level raised up with a layer of concrete and then maybe a layer of nice pavers, like I did on my side porch. The steps would have to be adjusted in height so I wouldn't have a huge step up to the porch. It will cost money, but it seems the best way to have a safe door and safe step down.


Here's my side porch.



The porch was raised about 4 or 5" with first concrete and then a layer of 2" pavers and bricks. The sides still have to be painted. The gap between bricks around the back rail is already fixed.
