Well so much depends on the age of the wiring and the codes in effect at the
time it was installed always assuming that codes were honoured and then there
is the possibility that modifications have been made since the original
installation.
Most probably 16 or 14 gauge wire would be used and th

With the type of metal they use today, it's hard to say what the problem is.
You said the door doesn't open if you use the remote. Can you work the door
otherwise? Do you have electric door locks inside? does the door unlock with
the button? Checking that will mean someone has to stand out
i had that ruler but mine was metal.
i hated it because you never could besure you put the dot at the end in the
same place every time but hey its a nice large print rule so i keep it around
for the sighties and just took that usless part off grin.

I am reading this that the actual exterior handle has play in it or is loose.
This would certainly cause problems in the internal linkage not being right.
Take the panel off and tighten up the nuts that hold the handle on then see
what is going on.

We have a Ford Focus.
The inside handle workds fine for opening the door.
But the outside handle is loose.
It will open the door if it has been setting unlocked, but if we use the
remote to unlock the door, operating the handle will not open it.
I can take the inside panel off, but can someone tell
I don't understand where there is a problem as you got it. Thread the three
1-foot extensions together, draw the sliding piece in the Click Rule main
piece out 4 inches and thread the 3 piece assembly into the main piece for
your 40 inches.

Yes I bought it.
The plastic is a 6-inch ruler incremented by eighths.
The tape itself is only marked every 6 inches so to get a more accurate
measure, you have to line up the end of the ruler with one of the marks and
then calculate from there.

I'd go with the electrical outlet, simply for the grounding.
My understanding is that a surge suppressor needs to be grounded through the
outlet to work properly.
This is not a difficult job. Maybe you can find a friend or relative to
help you with it, rather than paying an electrician.
Blessings,
The 42 inch was no problem, the 19 inch was the problem.

The problem is, I don't believe there is a ground to the attachment for the

Jennifer, my concern about a pc in a closet is
ventilation. I'm wondering if your pc might get a bit hot, in there.

I agree with those that do not think using the light socket to tap in is a good
idea. One other thing that I will add, is that you want to know what is on any
line that you do tap into. For instance, it is not good to tap into the line
that your washer and dryer are on. This line may have spi

I agree with Scott, Ron, Dale, and Bob. I don't like the idea of using
the light socket as an outlet for many reasons, grounding being a big one,
accidentally ripping the fixture out of the ceiling being another. Maybe
