from the title: you can hear it because you have something called ears

If you are near Camberley area, they still use them cause of Broadmoor Hospital. They sound it if an inmate escapes.

If you’re up near Camberly way, they still use the sirens cause of broadmoor hospital. They sound the sirens if someone has escaped.

In Runcorn every 12:00 o'clock on monday an air raid siren goes off. And it on site at a factory That used to be an i.c.i

I live in lower morden, which is close to hampton and walton on thames and if the windspeeds are fast enough, I can hear it faintly. I'm considering buying an air raid siren to warn civilians of an emergencies because the one near me got removed in 2001 (which is stupid considering the current risk of war).

What size screws did you use to screw the it into the loft please?

Fiyadi neka

I have one of these installed , however where do the springs go ?

I genuinely thought I was crazy, but I also hear this still! I go to work late on Tuesdays so I’m usually drinking coffee like 🤔

I am from Blanco Texas. I get to hewr it every day as a noon blast It run up solid for 15 sec.

Great job guys

All fans in the house have three and are wire with the light switch and fan switch. However one fan died and the replacement I’ve got from the shop has only two wire inputs. Can I wire the cable from the light to the brown or blue? Or should I get a fan with 3 wire connectors? Thanks

Great. Didn’t say what wires went where in the unit. 🙄

Looks amazing! You did a great job!

Sorry typical DIY with no idea. A few basic things like plan things, read instructions. Most of all wear protective clothes and equipment. Alkali burns to the skin are not funny and will blind you, that hammer drill will go throw your foot. You do not have to be rich to be safe.

I hear them in Teddington occasionally thanks to explaining it

I hear this because of the quarry near rivington!

1:06 - 1:10 If you look at the grey floor at the bottom, you can see what looks like the very large spider scuttling away! Very helpful video, thanks!

Excellent to see BASIC personal protective equipment (PPE) in use .....(NOT?!) NO Eye Protection , NO Gloves and Trainers?! - whilst using a high-power jackhammer, that if it slipped, could split your foot in half like a hot knife through butter. What Not To Do on sooooo many levels. Hope you set a better example to others for personal safety in any future DIY videos. (Professional Gardener).

Very good video, clear instructions and showed the issues that can come up when doing DIY!

Help help. This is exactly what I need. However, I am not completely clear about the wiring. I have the same looped system, old wires which, in the switch box have infact been wired "black" for live and red for neutral, which didn't help. Although, in all fairness to the electrician they did cover the black wire with a red sheet at the switch and the wire coming out of the ceiling. So that established. What I needed a, slower visual for was the switch wiring wire seems to be a wire you have seperate from the rest. I needed to see what the live switch wire was linked up with at the ceiling? Plus the where the two live wires from the fan go into on the other side of the ceiling fitment. Have you a diagram sir, that you could make it clear what wires are coupled with what one dude of the connecter and the other. If I've made it clear, being a complete non electrician. But I can understand, if shown, what goes where and what doesn't, if shown. Sadly my instructions doesn't show "wiring with multiple wires loops". Just shows it with single wires. Your video is great, but just need to understand a little more. If you would so kind to help me. All I know is I've got the combination wrong. All works, lights con on on both fans in living room, but if I use the switch now it blows the fuse😭. So I need help with my configuration. Knowing that I am almost there 😂👍 Thank you. David - Devon

We gonna buy this loft hatch and ladder for our house as well

I heard this every now and then working on portsmouth road and wondered where it was and now working in walton and heard it again last week but i know. Thanks

Screwfix and B&Q are owned by the same company

Bu vantilatörün aynısını aldım ama ışık çok yetersiz E14 duyu var diye yazıyor. Ama bir türlü o beyaz kapağı açmayı başaramadım, kapağını nasıl açacağım hakkında bilgi verebilir misiniz

Great video. I just bought the same one today

Thanks for taking the time to do this. Some info regarding the width of the ladder and joists would be good.

Its just ww2 siren but its a carter siren

Looking good Rob. 👌

I installed a keylite one from amazon but I took the ladder off the door to make solo installation easier. ours is a 10ft / 3.05m ladder hatch. I like how you told people what you did & why, where as in my video I said what I was going to do, did it & then showed what I did & why. I feel like us doing these is great because its shows people you don't need an expensive trade all the time

In the time since the last video we’ve bought our first home, so your videos have been very helpful. Glad to see the progress.

Does it come with a remote control?

Hi can you switch the light off and have the fan running?

kzbin.info/www/bejne/jnPdf4x5Ysuhe7s 6min in he starts postcrete info here!

Any way I can get a uk fan shipped to the usa

As someone who lived in Hersham, I always wondered, now I know!

its called testing

way too much water, 2.5 Litres of water to a 20k bag.

Can I have it ?

What screws do you use to mount the frame to the joists?

What I will say, for older houses. We are currently in the process of buying an old house. We have asbestos survey being carried out very shortly because the loft was pulled up on the RICS level 3 survey. The house is 120 years old so a RICS lvl 3 was needed (any house over 50 years should be surveyed at RTICS lvl 3). The 'rag felt' was pulled up and possible asbestos there and in the insulation of the loft which can not be confirmed in the survey hence a specialist survey needs to be done. BECAREFUL ion older houses as asbestos was NOT deemed illegal to use until 1999. Unless you know for sure, in old houses or houses you are not sure of, check with a survey first to be on the safe side as if there is asbestos insulation there, it will have to be taken out by specialists and the house can not be lived in during that time until the air tests have come back as safe. This may also mean the loft hatch being taken out during this process. Asbestos can exist also in Artex coverings. Remember, it may have been used up to the date it was deemed illegal to use though not as much as in 1945-1965. There are 3 types of asbestos so that you are aware. It is deemed highly dangerous to human health so take precautions where necessary, especially if you do not know when the ceilings, loft etc were done as it can even be around the boiler, switch boxes etc, in fact, anywhere. Asbestos is safe while it is sealed and in good condition but if flaking occurs on those areas, like paint starting to flake on Artex ceilings/walls, you do not know when this was done, you may want to have that checked as you can't smell it or anything. Not all Artexing may contain asbestos mixed plaster but it can have. So long as it is sealed and that is in good condition, it should be safe and this coming from specialists. Once any asbestos that is confirmed in the loft has been taken out and air deemed safe to dwell in the property again, might be 2 weeks so good chance for a holiday, then proceed with installing a new lofty hatch, though you may want to install new insulation also and any boards you want up there, if there is no other sources of asbestos. This is very much overlooked so be safe people. Houses built from 2000 should be asbestos free legally, if not then there is some installed illegally when built, though I doubt this will be the case Other than that, a very helpful video.

Just fitted one of these. Didnt know i had to assemble the ladder...the instructions are ok...just need a microscope to read them!!. The tension springs were a problem to attatch...just got the "Hulk" to help😂🥴....not a job for someone who hasnt got some " building" knowledge. It seems ok though....so far. Just got to patch the ceiling up now!!😫😫

Hi, I have the same ladder but the door doesn't close.. the fella who fit it doesn't answer my calls now -_-. Any clues as to how I can adjust?

what a ,mess of a garden,you are just making it worse

Hi there I can find the manual in my box can you send me a link pls

Is this russia???

That's an unfortunate attitude bro

Wow, you even had the cheek to moan about the previous owners handy work. Like the comment “this is how post create work” erm not even close. TBH not sure what you was trying to achieve, I think you was going to screw the leg into it as you mentioned the same process for the slabs. That post creat will just pull out once you have it up and get a bit of wind. And there was me thinking I’d get some do’s and don’t in the garden just lots of don’ts. Wish you all the best.

We had some workmen in our loft in the last week or two and yanked down the door catch and now it won't hold closed. So now I'm going to have to try and rig something to allow it to catch and hold or track down a replacement lock, hopefully at Screwfix. Not a fault of the loft ladder, just fools you pay to do a job and create even more work for oneself. The door hatch and ladder are brilliant and we've had ours for about 16 years without issues until now.
