Using a 1/2HP Door Opener for a 16' Wide Sliding Door
Comments (2)These openers are limited by the design of the open and close limit assembly. Even adding an additional extension would not help you. Genie uses a simpler limit control which may be the answer to your problem. Unfortunately it involves replacing the opener....See MoreViking French Door Double Oven. Should I or shouldn't I?
Comments (18)The older Gaggenau ovens are 27" wide. The current ones are 30". both are standard sizes. Mine is from the first group of 30" and the interior front to back will hold a 16" pizza pan, but barely. I don't know if the current model has the same conformation. They also make a classic 36" oven, though they have recently updated it. Gaggenau is one of the most accurate ovens on the market, though you pay for it. People here are happy with the side opening Bosch, which has a more accessible price. Bosch used to have the biggest cavity, but I don't know if that's also true for the side opening one. Definitely worth checking out. I'll say again, GE's ovens have a poor reputation. Uneven heating and other control issues. Look at the AR and BS. Before you get too set on any kind of flexible surface induction cooktop, do read the manuals really really thoroughly. There are limits to the "anywhere you want", the amount of power delivered, etc. It's very different technology to the standard inductor rings--I didn't realize that's what you were talking about before--and I would definitely not go with Viking on that. Not without a lot of other guinea pigs reporting that it's great and that the customer service is also great if something fails. If you think you really want it, AEG (I think it's now part of Electrolux) and Siemans (BSH=Bosch, Thermador and Gaggenau here) are the companies that have been in it longest. I don't think AEG is offered in the USA. That leaves Thermador and Gaggenau to look at. You might like the new Gaggenau 36" which has two "freedom" panels on the sides and a big multiple ring in the center. I think you could do three of your big pots across--do read the manual to be sure, but I think you can power share the front and back zones with one big pot in the middle of a freedom, which I think is four oblong inductors. But, again, you pay for it. Modern dishwashers are very different from your old Kenmore. They're designed for energy and water savings first, and cleaning second, ease of use third and drying a lag behind. Most people love Miele--mid-range on up. It's not as big, but genuinely loved. Most DWs are pretty good. Find one that fits your loads, and it'll probably be okay. Most of the work now, is done by enzymes in the detergent, rather than heat or power, and most machines require rinse aid (surfactant to loosen the water) for drying. Not spot prevention, but to actually get your dishes dry....See MoreWall of Windows (and sliding door) update with Plantation Shutters?
Comments (4)For the Hunter Douglas Bypass Shutters you don't have to have a floor frame. It's an option and most of the one's we install do not have it because of the trip hazard and most people don't want to put screws through their floors. I would highly recommend them if your doing shutters on the other windows. It will all co-ordinate nicely....See Morereplacement exteriorglass doors 16 foot door opening want 4 sliding g
Comments (9)That's the beauty of the stacking sliders she is asking about. The recessed sill width is the depth of the total of the panels. The panels don't need to be adjusted for the flooring. The sill of course needs to be put in and planned for at the framing stage (preferable drainage track if a wet area). All of which leads back to the budget questions and now the question as to the state of construction....See MoreMark Bischak, Architect
