DIY Allen and Roth Blackout Window Shade Installation Demonstration [All...

This Allen and Roth window shade was super easy to install and can be accomplished in a matter of minutes. I used a cordless drill for securing it's only two brackets to the interior of the window frame. Purchased at Lowe's. They are light weight and keep the sun from blasting through the window as well as provide maximum privacy. I take you step by step through the process in my "DIY Allen and Roth Blackout Window Shade Installation Demonstration [Allen and Roth Blackout Shade]" video. Hey guys get some blinds i'm gonna put up here these allen and roth blinds but this is the before picture 47 inches across here's the blinds that we're going to be using Okay again this was 47 inches across and these are 46 so you can see there's a little bit of a gap in there which is what you want which is the window seal will kind of make up that gap as well but if we did it on the full 47 i'm not sure that this would fit here's the brackets for these things okay we have a choice of either doing an inside mount like this or an outside mounting outside the frame here okay see those two dots there those are the marks i made with the pencil and i just made that because i'm going to pre-drill my holes right there Now we're going to screw these into the two holes we just made to secure the bracket to the overhead all right we got our brackets up i'm just gonna pop the thing in there just snaps right in there gonna angle it down this piece is the handle to pull the shade down and it just grabs that lower edge you just snap it right on there i'll show you okay this is the upper portion so this just grabs that lip right there here we go That was too easy Thank you.

DIY Self Closing Door Hinge Installation and Operation Instructional Tut...



No need to try to shut the door behind you while you have your arms full anymore. Watch this DIY Self Closing Door Hinge Installation and Operation Instructional Tutorial and put one in yourself. It's easy. I'll post a link to some below. Simply remove the middle existing hinge on the door (leaving the upper and lower one in place) and install the self closing door hinge in it's place. It's easiest if you use a cordless drill for the hinge fasteners but not mandatory. You could do this with a regular handheld manual screwdriver. You will need the correct size Allen (hex head) wrench for the internal set screw to set the tension on the hinge. Some of the hinges will come with the correct size Allen wrench to use. You tighten the Allen screw inside the hinge to set the tension of the hinge on desired self-closing strength. You can always adjust it later if you find you don't like your settings.

DIY-Mountain Security Brand-Keyed Entry Door Knob Installation Tutorial



Accompany me during this DIY-Mountain Security Brand Keyed Entry Door Knob Installation tutorial. In a somewhat organized manner I pulled the parts out of the package and layer them out. I then slid the internal latch mechanism into the door and slid the rods of the door handles through the center. After assembling the internal locking mechanism and both sides of the door handle start loosely screwing everything together. I started with the door jam side portion of the assembly by inserting and tightening the screws that lock it in. I then took the two long fine threaded screws and inserted them into the face of the collar of the door handle inserting them all the way through, pulling both sides of the door handles toward each other as you tighten. Once everything is tight, be sure to ensure the door handle opens and closes without any binding. If any binding does occur, you may want to try to back off the door handle assembly screws just a tiny bit.
