How to install a shower door You will need: Pivot shower door kit Impact drill, masonry and HSS drill bits Tape measure and pencil 1 metre spirit level Metal file Rubber Mallet and hammer Nail punch Silicone sealer fischer Wall plugs Stainless steel pan -head screws (if not supplied) Here's how: 1. Cut the base track to length Measure the length of the shower threshold , then use a hacksaw to cut the aluminum base track to fit tightly between the previously built stall walls . Smooth the cut end with a file. Vacuum up the metal filings immediately so they don’t scratch the bathroom floor or shower base. 2. Set the base track Place the track on the threshold and use a tape measure to make sure that it’s centred from front to back. With a pencil, mark the threshold along the edge of the track near each end. This allows easy repositioning if it slides around during installation of the jambs. 3. Mark position of the hinge-side jamb On the side of the shower opening that will suppor...

Pretty much since I learned to walk, I have had an unusual disdain for waste. I noted the inefficient route of the school bus and wondered why it couldn’t just pick us up at a few centralized locations. Tracked my allowance with multi-year forecasts and kept the dollar bills organized in a photo album. Always cast a fiery eye towards a fridge or a front door left open , a car left idling , or a credit card bill left unpaid . This odd condition has proved to be profitable over the years, as I have naturally sought out ways to use less energy and waste less money, with very positive side effects like getting to spend more time outside and retiring from work relatively early. This is the reason the concepts of money and energy efficiency mingle so freely on this supposedly-financial blog: you can look at your energy consumption as a very close measure of the wastefulness of your life. The ideal life, even a very modern one, will require you to spend very little of your earnings buying ...

Kya deLongchamps considers the challenge of matching up facilities to square metres in the most hardworking and necessary of spaces — the bathroom. A smaller bathroom can be a triumph of spatial design and ergonomics — and there has never been such a wide choice of suites, storage and plumbing solutions to tailor out those millimetres. Rush your planning, however, and it can feel as if the walls are closing in around you in what should be a private and restful room. Follow our tips, however, and you can have a space scaled to crisp, clean perfection. A few millimetres shaved from a suite can make all the difference.  For smaller rooms, look for ranges which, though slightly compact, are in perfect proportion to each other. The right arrangement will fool the eye without cramping your style. Even the degree to which the WC pan intrudes into the floor-plan from the wall can make an amazing difference. * A rounder shape rather than a soft cornered triangular pan can save up to 5cm and...
