Suggestions for door knob, flush with back/front of interior door
Comments (5)This one comes with a blank plate in the back, the problem is you could not open it from the inside if it closed. My sister lived in a house that had small thumb turns on the inside of the closets instead of a full knob, but those were on mortise, not cylindrical knob sets. Here is a link that might be useful: Passge/blank knobs....See MoreFront Load Door Not closed but machine ran anyway
Comments (9)Ugh! This drives me NUTS. I would NEVER EVER leave a washer or dryer unattended (leave the house with it running). TOO much can go wrong. Between fire and or flooding...it's just too HUGE a risk to take for convenience. You NEVER know what can happen. I ALWAYS turn of the water to the washer/dryer when done using them. As with the machine mentioned above there was no type of water flow sensor. After so much time or water flow the machine SHOULD have faulted and shut it self down. Instead there was no software that would check it self if this event happens. There's a type of flow chart that developers or programmers follow. If A happens then B should follow and if not then C should take action to correct or end the process. The protection wasn't written into the software....See MoreFront door getting hard to close
Comments (5)Carpenter. Hopefully one who's good at windows and doors, and repair/remodeling rather than only new construction. It may be as simple as re-setting the frame, but in this case since you had moisture coming in, there could be rot, swelling, settling etc. around or under the door. The molding needs to come off and the threshold to see what's going on under there....See MoreTrouble upgrading cabinet hinges to soft close. Door not flush
Comments (1)When we "converted" our cabinet doors to soft-close, we chose to go with dampers instead. They were very easy to install and are still working just fine 14 years later. I don't know if it has to do with your cabinet type or not (framed vs frameless), but my suggestion is to put the original hinges back and go the damper route. We used "Blumotion for Compact Hinges" and got them online at Woodworker's Hardware. https://www.wwhardware.com/blumotion-cabinet-mount-for-compact-hinges-b971a970 We ordered part # B971A9700 It says "Designed for use with Blum Compact hinges", but it doesn't matter as our hinges are not Blum (they're Salice) and they worked with our cabinet hinges....See Moremillworkman
