are mirrored closet doors woefully passe?
Comments (31)Thanks again, folks. writersblock...always enjoy your posts. leah-yeah, i did take into consideration what exactly will be reflected. Our room is pretty, and it will oppose french doors across the room...so i think that will look cool! thank you, teacates! and mclarke and mlb! bronwyns-well, I am a vodka martini girl...but I think taht will do the trick. The BIG trick, tho...is to have HUBBY indulge in a few cocktails. That way...i look like a SUPERMODEL in his eyes! :) marti8-You make the best point of all. I know these design ideas come full circle. Also, I am at an age where i like what I like, and everyone else be damned! Well, I guess that is not 100% true or I would not be on a decorating message board...but you know what I mean! newdawn-kookooachoo, mrs Robinson! BTW, you don't realize how perfect that is, because I have started a few threads regarding my desire to decorate my 70's ranch with a 70's flair! I just think of mirrored doors as more "80's." That's where I have a problem. (not that there was anything wrong with the 80's! LOL) justgotobeme-YES! Actually, I must admit I was talking about the 1st link. Just the plain old doors. BTW, that is almost exactly what my room looks like...that same color green, that same color trim, and almost the same color wood (mine is a little darker.)But I do love the second link. I will have to look into those further. That might be just what I need. do you know where they are available? You are always so very helpful! walkin-even I admit, those mirrors are a bit much! But great link, thank you, it was a funny (yet informative)read. nicole-thanks for the input. I am pretty sure I will find the doors functional AND pretty. bbstxx-that is GORGEOUS! When you say antiqued...do you mean like smoked mirrors? Wonder where I can find the doors in your picture...do you know? Thank you for sharing that....See MoreSears Garage door opener won't close w/ remote
Comments (144)The problem I have is my door wont open at all. Neither the remote nor the wall button will budge it. The wall unit and the overhead opener seem to be communicating, since the lightbulbs are flashing, and turn on and off when told to. The remotes seem to have no affect at all. I replaced the chain onto the sprocket assemby and was adjusting the up and down on the main unit, Unit does nothing now when I press button on wall, is it possible to have adjusted the up/down too much to make unit not operate?Anyone have any ideas why my door won't work at all? I would expect the motor to at least chug or something, but...nuthin! Just flashing lights when i press the wall buttons. Sears Model 139.53975SRT1. HELP!...See MoreFireplace code for California? Are ceramic logs plus glass doors ok?
Comments (2)Well, I'm absolutely ignorant about codes, but we just had inserts installed in the two old, originally coal, fireplaces in our house in San Francisco. We originally were going to get a gas log set-up, but the fireplace company came and looked with cameras up the chimneys and said they would need to be relined to have the open flame. A neighbor told me that he inquired about relining their similar chimney, and the quote was $6500 for one. So we ordered the inserts instead, which have only a sealed vent pipe on each one, that goes to the roof. When I read your post, it crossed my mind that maybe you could buy only a new front for your existing fireplace insert that would be more attractive to you. Is such an item available?...See MoreYOU SHALL NOT PASS: the immovable door
Comments (28)The door folds into and the fold gies to the outside... Can you push/separate any part of the door from the frame? Have you inspected it from the outside? In addition to no railing it may be that the outside surface is not weight bearing so you may want to use a large wide plank to distribute your weight when you inspect the outside. It could just be painted shut. The advice above to run something thin around the door frame inside and out was good. I would only get a sawzall involved when you are absolutely certain of your target....See MoreRelated Professionals
