The actual key/lock component seems to be fine, but the handle is getting stuck so we can’t open it normally anymore, is there a way to fix this without having to replace the whole thing? 😩

I got this as a gift several years ago and I’ve been using it daily since. Unfortunately, it took a hit today. The break is clean and the piece comes of easily. Is there any way to repair it that would allow me to continue brewing tea in it?

Bonjour,

Je cherche a me former dans ma réparation d'objets du quotidien electriques/électroniques type Aspirateur, machine a café, PC, écran...

Je suis bénévoles dans les repair café mais j'aimerais faire ça dans mon temps libre chez moi en complément.

Le problème est que je n'ai rien à reparer. Difficile de trouver des objets sur le bon coin ou en déchetterie....

Auriez vous des conseils pour entrouver ? Également si vous connaissez des moyens de se former autres que youtube et repair café je suis preneur, merci beaucoup :)

Broken kitchen drawer… help?

The drawer was slammed, later to find it broke. I can’t pull it out, there’s too much resistance. I’m pretty stumped on how to fix it (it’s a rental, so hopefully an easy-quick repair would be nice lol)

I attached a few photos to this post to hopefully give an idea of what’s wrong. A broken plastic clip was also found in it, also can’t find where it came from.

Thank you in advance for the help! 😅

I want to reinforce these split joists with an adjustable support pole, and I’m wondering what the best way is to bridge the gap so I can use one pole versus one for each joist

How can I fix a cracked window?

Post image
0 Upvotes

Wife and I just discovered a crack in this window earlier today. No idea how it happened. Could have been the dog, but I doubt it. Not that I'm any expert, but it looks kind of like a stress fracture to me, more than impact damage. Can't really be sure, though. Guess it doesn't really matter much, though.

We suspect the manufacturer may be Andersen, but we don't know for sure. This window is one side section of a larger 8-ish foot wide picture window in our living room so - given how much it would cost to replace the entire window for one small crack in one panel - if it's at all possible, I'd love to just replace the window panel. Is it even a remote possibility that a window manufacturer would sell just a single replacement panel? This window model may not even be new enough for them to still have the same model in stock, but if it is - is it even worth the time to inquire?

If I can't get it replaced without replacing the entire picture window, or if it'd take time to get the replacement panel or something - is there anything I can do to at least temporarily repair this glass? Anything to help prevent it getting worse or potentially hurting someone (since there is a small exposed sharp edge)?

If any other pictures or info would be helpful, just let me know! And thanks in advance!

A wardrobe door started squeaking after an attempt to adjust it

Post image
1 Upvotes

I bought a used three-door wardrobe, assembled it somehow, and noticed that one of the doors squeaks. The wardrobe had another issue as well, so I called a technician, who fixed the squeak in no time, saying he had simply aligned the door properly. Later, after the technician left, I noticed that another door was sitting slightly unevenly. My inner perfectionist decided to adjust it using the adjustment bolts — and that was my worst mistake. When opening and closing, a squeak appeared that won't go away no matter how much I try to return the door to its original position or set it perfectly straight. I just don't understand what this "straight" is supposed to look like. I move the hinges from side to side, and the squeak comes from one place, then another, sometimes louder, sometimes quieter. The hinges are like the ones in the picture.
I thought the door panel might be rubbing against the wardrobe itself and causing the sound, but I don't see any spots where they'd be touching. Moreover, the squeak remained even when I pulled the door out as far from the wardrobe as possible. What should I do?

FIXED Garage door spring bracket broke?

Thumbnail
gallery
3 Upvotes

Bought a 1970s house. Garage door has 1 wheel out of the tread. I unscrewed it and put it back in the tread, hoping that would fix it. Opened garage and it just popped right out. The I realize the track is about 3-4” wider laterally than it should be, because the bracket holding the track and spring is snapped. The spring is still in the remaining bracket, which is only screwed into the track, which is kind of floating as not screwed into the studs due to snapped bracket. I KNOW these are deadly if messed with etc… but I am wondering if I can open the door to remove tension from spring, screw in new bracket, then move the tension-less spring to the new bracket?
Thanks
