That looks like a plan there. Have not fully studied it, but if I understand it correctly this allows the use of any type of 120vac light fixture. Could be the solution since my old lady has already bought the “carriage “ type lantern fixtures for each side of the garage door. Thank you!

Thanks. I should add that this for new construction. I want floodlights at the detached garage eave or decorative lights on each side of garage door that I can turn on and off with a switch, or switch to dusk to dawn if we leave in the day and come home at night. Once home I can turn them off. I...

Getting frustrated shopping online, maybe I ain’t using the correct words to search. Any recommendations for a decent outdoor flood light that’s capable of being on/off/photocell via wall switch? Like most everything there’s 9 jillion different floodlights for sale. Hard to sort out the ones...

Most likely thing to be rolled in to that room will be a motorcycle table lift and motorcycles. Scooters no problem rolling over a threshold but the lift would ****. The room is 16x30 framed inside a 42x54 metal building. Keeping the AC in the room is top priority.

That sounds pretty slick. Thanks

Ya'll are right about that. Something I been trying to figger out, that would do away with the threshold but a way to get a good seal. The room will be air conditioned. Thought about a type of door sweep but any I've jacked with to make seal good are a pain in the *** to open and close...

I'm confused too. Kinda. I do not think it matters. I'm pretty certain I can install it that way. Just seeing if there might be any good reason not to. Maybe something to do with the walls, or final appearance. I know the "threshold" would be facing inside and the hinges on the outside.

Going to use prehung 72x80 French doors inside my shop, to a framed in room inside the metal building. Looks like I have to use exterior doors. I want them to swing out into the shop, not into the room. Having a helluva time finding outswing units and the few I've found are way more expensive...

Yes. TELCO is the internet provider. Only game in town. No other option except some satelite outfit. It's all copper phone lines. No fiber available. Yet. They say it's coming, someday. My old man told me years ago that someday never comes. Don't believe the box they install has any battery BU...

Beautiful. Thank you sir. When you say bury 2 "sets" of CAT 6, is that 2 CAT6 cables? or? Appreciate all y'alls help. Believe I've pert near got it figured out. I'd much rather be ridin motorcycles or fishin than fiddling with cyber stuff.

Ok thanks

Extra for what? And extra meaning how many more than 1? Another question for y’all considering using the 3/4 or 1 1/4” conduit. They “say” that they’re working on getting fiber optic in our area. I may be dead before that happens, but if it does would that change the decision on what size...

Same here. Shop is all steel. Same as our last place. Tried one of those WiFi extender jobs and it never worked but 6’ past the window it was sitting in. We are in the woods, hunnerd foot pine trees and have no fiber. No cell service.

Man I sure appreciate you dumbing it down for me. That helps tremendously.

that was my thinking as well but more so for a more robust connection, but after talking to TELCO tech he said it wouldn’t matter if modem was in shop or house as far as signal strength. However, thank you very much for rattling my brain about resetting or power cycling the modem. Way better...

Thanks Spud, but. Gotta tell ya, I have no clue what a network switch is. I guess my main concern right now is do I really need to waste a spare 1 1/4” conduit for this stuff if the 3/4 will work. Can it work similar to electrical in that one feed can serve a box with branch circuits? Like one...

Everything I search for and read about is like reading a Japanese newspaper to me. I have no understanding on how all these cables operate the many devices folks use them for. I‘m at the point of wiring my shop where I need to make a decision on which spare PVC to use to run internet and ...

Thanks. I don't bird dog china freight coopuns. How often that 25% come up?

Reckon that 10% off is about good as it gets anymore for a US General box. ??

I sure agree about the fuel choice part Craig. As far as centrally located, that ain't happening with our floor plan. If they put it in the attic then yes that would work, but I simply will not have a water heater in my attic. I believe I'm leaning toward this heat pump hybrid outfit and put...
