36in opening with 36 in hood will not allow cabinet to open! if i change out the door to the other side i still can only open the cabinet halfway until it hits the hood. A 30 inch hood will leave a 3 inch gap on either side. what should i do?

Uh-oh... Freezer won't open...
Comments (21)OK, an update... The blow dryer method didn't work, it had overheating protection and kept shutting itself off. I removed the door. It still took some doing even after taking off all the screws/bolts. The freezer was almost full of ice/snow. I used some to line a cooler and transferred the food... then took much of the food to a friend's house, she had room in her freezer. Some of the tomatoes had freezer burn so threw them out. A batch of sauce we make still looked excellent so saved it. About 50lbs of deseeded, dejuiced maters in freezer bags that were in a big coated box look great still. If they defrost I'll run them thru the Spremy. It's not like I don't have enough tomatoes on the plants still, which are still flourishing... Now to get her back here later today to get at the 3 screws that go on the bottom of the door... Mark...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.

Comments (64)Get better pics than the ones you have now. A pet peeve of mine is how terrible a lot of realtor.com photos are. Yours were fair, but not really good. My realtor took some excellent photos. He was able to get the bathroom in one shot, even. They really emphasized the advantages of the kitchen (even though are pine site built from the 70’s). He brought a tripod and the camera talked to his tablet so we could instantly see the pics. He had a fairly wide angle lense, but it didn’t create that curve you sometimes see in realtor photos....See MoreKitchen Cabinet Color that Won't Overwhelm Tiny Open Concept
Comments (11)Open concept is one big room. Design it like one big room. The colors you pick should not be isolated to “kitchen” or “dining room”. They are used overall, everywhere. Low contrast, or the same color cabinets as walls will make it seem more spacious if you have an adequate lighting plan. Consider a single color, in different sheens, for the walls, trim, cabinets, and even ceiling. That might read boring to some, but it will read bigger and more soothing to everyone. It’s a neutral palette, ready for the touches of emphasis of natural materials like wood, stone, leather, fabric, and art. Create the whole design plan first. Never do demo without a design plan....See More
