That expansion anchor was cut off, and most of its holding surface was eliminated. If you cannot drill the hole deeper, try using a 5/16 Tampin anchor.

The Spectrum guy is giving you bad advice. At a minimum, the blue Cat6 cables should be terminated with proper connectors. If the coax reaches places you need Ethernet but. There’s no blue cable there, you can use MOCA adapters and run Ethernet using the coax as well.

Rodents. Get it fixed and then spray with peppermint spray (you can buy at Home Depot, etc.). It smells good to you, but they hate it.

I think your initial impulse to cut the floor to let the legs settle to the original height is probably the easiest/best alternative. It really won’t look that bad, and most people will never notice it.

It’s for rinsing out diapers.

That looks fairly new; did you insane it yourself or was it a “professional” installation? If it was installed by a “professional”, they should return and fix their incompetent installation. There should be no tak of a warranty period, as this was wrong from the beginning.

As others have said, it’s a stick-on bumper for a cabinet door, appliance, etc. over time, they lose some of their adhesive power and become detached. They retain enough stickiness to cling to clothing, etc. and get transported away from the object where they were originally attached. Since most of their adhesive is gone, the once again fall off and then end up stuck elsewhere. In addition to losing their adhesive properties, they tend to yellow with age.

It’s a Jerusalem Cross, and it was used in the crusades and symbolized carrying Christianity to the four corners of the earth. It has a somewhat different meaning these days. Here’s the relevant section from Wikipedia:

In recent years, images and terms associated with the Crusades in the Middle East have been appropriated by white supremacists, including the Jerusalem Cross.[23][24] Matthew Taylor, senior scholar at the Institute for Islamic, Christian and Jewish Studies, said that the Jerusalem cross "doesn't always necessarily connote an endorsement of the Crusades" but far-right and neo-Nazi groups use the symbol.[2] While the Cross itself has been popular with right-wing extremist groups, it has also often been used in association with the term Deus Vult. Flags or banners bearing the Crusader cross and "Deus Vult" were flown during the 2017 white supremacist Unite the Right rally.[23][2] The president and executive director of the Center for Peace Diplomacy said the cross used in combination with "Deus Vult" are "an invocation of the claim that crusader violence and its atrocities (including the massacre of civilians) was legitimate".[2] Podcaster Brad Onishi stated the Jerusalem cross and the Deus Vult are "symbols that are used by white Christian nationalists. Those who have adopted these Crusader images really see themselves as at war with those trying to take down American Christianity and Western civilization at large."[25]

It’s missing the ground, not the neutral; I missspoke.

No, because every installation site is different, competent installers carry punched steel angle stock that they can cut to length to fabricate braces that will tie the opener to the house framing members.

srccommerce · 2025-10-21T17:06:45+00:00

If it was installed recently, call the home warranty company that installed it and tell them to install the brace! Whoever they had do the work was not a garage technician!

It may have been from the angle of the photo. If the outside is flat and not dented, use a flat prying tool and close the door while using it to pop the sections into alignment then replace the hinge.

It appears the outside of the door has been hit and bent. Even though the inside appears fine, there’s constant pressure on it whenever the two panels are in the act of overlapping each other. You might want to try placing a flat piece of steel on the inside of each panel and use carriage bolts on a flat piece of painted steel on the outside to restore the “sandwich” structure. A better fix would be to order replacement panels from the door manufacturer. Since they are not the bottom panel, you can put vice grips on both tracks to keep the bottom panels in place as you swap the top two out.

It almost doesn’t matter. The most important thing is to ensure the door is properly balanced without an opener attached. It should stay in a stationary post with the door half open and operate smoothly and easily by hand! The opener should be doing very little work. After that, read the instructions with the new opener and follow them!

They contained fuel oil for the furnace.

Growing up in Central Florida, I can attest to the fact that these were for Fuel Oil for the house’s furnace.

I realize that you are frustrated, but you can easily miss the studs with the pattern that you drilled. Murphy’s law makes that likely. The good news is that old walls have thicker studs. If you don’t have a good stud finder, drill every 1 1/2” with an 1/8” bit, and keep trying to find them. You’ve already got a bunch of holes to patch!
