[Willy599]

Aye, we used Down Garage Equipment

 

[saxo_man]

@Willy599 how deep are the holes for the lift and did you strengthen the floor underneath? Cheers.

 

[Phil_D]

Anyone on here supply Tuff Tile ? Are they easy cut for occasions when you don't need a full Tile ? Around door
Openings etc

They can be cut fairly easily, angle grinder is best. Got mine done in January

Got mine from redmount, easy dealt with, delivery was dead on although we had a bit of figuring out how to get them inside, ended up using wheel skates.

Can't wait to see a picture of yours then.

Can't remember the depth want to say about 500mm, it was built for it so just thick compacted hardcore underneath.

Another vote for Redmount
I took a day and a trailer and collected from their warehouse in Dundalk.

Similar story for the unloading, had to get a lend of a telehandler to get it off the trailer and onto the ground!

Might be of help to some People - This is the Floor detail my Architect drew up for the lift installation on my House Tender

 

[Paddy_R]

I finally finished putting my old number plates onto the wall of the garage...

Looks the part I believe.

 

[Laundrymike]

[Cossers]

Had this in its current state since last July. Still need to sort some things get a bit of artwork sorted, a retractable airline and a bigger compressor but it's great to work in. View attachment 429520

This is just fantastic! You have since cost me money.

 

[Bryan]

Can anyone give me the definitive answer? What is the maximum size, height and location you can build a shed/garage without planning permission? I've read conflicting answers but seems to be possibly 30sqm?

Page 9, all councils have thier own but the rules are the same across NI. think the 15m2-30m2 is an england thing 50% of the total free area is mentioned more in NI.

Building regs are additional to that and need followed on anything over 30m2

Are these made of tinfoil?

 

[lennyd]

Not sure but check the dimensions. Looks like it could be fisher price sized like some of the ones you can get in halfords.

The spanners are hanging on the side as they don't fit in the drawers

According to the website it weighs 30kg which I think is pretty light therefore common sense would tell me it’s very light material? Does have a 10 year warranty though. Might be worth checking the bigger brands, snap on, mac, sealey etc and see what weight theirs are in comparison

It's tiny. The roll cab is only 330 deep instead of the usual 450 or 600.
Width is only 600 instead of usual 660+.

Be like a game of buckaroo to see how many you can get on before it hits the floor.
