can I hang a picture over the breaker panel door?
Comments (7)Realistically, as long as you have ready access to it, I don't see the problem. You know where the panel is, and, in case of a fire, the firemen are not going to be running around inside looking for a breaker box anyway. I'm very safety conscious, but I've got mine covered with a picture and I don't consider it a risk. It's not like the code folks are going to be knocking on my door to make sure that my panel is in plain sight. It's a problem when people do stuff like put a cabinet or a freezer in front of it so that there's not ready access. If you do decide to hang a picture, just make sure you don't drive a nail into one of the many cables that are in the wall and may be in close proximity to the back of the sheetrock. If you are still not comfortable doing this, call your local permitting authority....See MoreHow high can/should I hang my ceiling mounted rain shower head?
Comments (12)Dragonflygirl girl, in my experience, water pressure in the water coming out of the pipe no longer has much influence on how ”hard” the water falls in a rainhead. My thinking is that the water ”uses up” some of the kinetic energy it gained from being under pressure in the pipe in the effort to spread out in the 12” diameter rain head. I don’t think having the water in the pipe until it is closer to your head matters much for pressure. In cold weather, though, I think that it does have a noticeable influence on the temperature of the water that hits your body. I might seriously consider a longer down pipe....See MoreWhere to hang a framed picture in my MBR ?
Comments (7)Thank you all, The night stand lamps sit on the night stands and a matching pair. The wall where the high boy dresser (my husband's dresser) is is not wide enough for my dresser and the TV is mounted above the high dresser so switching dressers isn't doable. Mimipadv, maybe I need to get a taller lamp for my dresser (or do away with it all together) ?...See MoreShould I hang my curtain rod close to ceiling?
Comments (8)@Jan Moyer We are building a guest house with 10’ ceilings and i am planning to install outside mount woven shades and sheers as in your mockup photo. I have 2 more days to do any additional blocking for shades and curtain rods. see photo i planned to hang rods about 9” from ceiling in case we later add crown moulding Question 1: is this height ok? 2. Is this enough blocking? or need more? 3. For nearby kitchen and mudroom windows, should they also be outside mounted to provide the most light ? or since they wont have sheers, should they be inside mounted? thanks!...See MoreUser
