		<title>DOING BETTER ...</title>
		<category>The first blog</category>
		<pubDate>2009-03-11T14:13:01Z</pubDate>
		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DOING BETTER ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok...so I&#039;ve survived the day. The morning was terrible, but mother called &amp;amp; we met for lunch, had a good visit, then I went to the tanning bed &amp;amp; caught a 20 minute power nap. When I came home I felt much better. This afternoon I ended up napping again for about 2 hours. Guess I needed that. Been emotionally drained lately. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mother&#039;s right. I&#039;ve been going through a grieving process regarding my marriage. Thank God Billy&#039;s understanding about it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other than that, that&#039;s been my day, but at least I&#039;m feeling somewhat better now. Mom told me I just need to change my perspective about a few things. Like this being MY home, rather than Ron&#039;s &amp;amp; my home. Afterall, Sandy left it to ME...not ronnie. That helped. She&#039;s got a pretty good perspective on things sometimes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mom&#039;s having some health problems. I think she&#039;s fighting congestive heart failure. She&#039;s got serious heart problems anyway. Her feet &amp;amp; legs are very swollen &amp;amp; painful &amp;amp; there&#039;s no other explanation for it other than her heart. Which means her days really could be numbered which is scary. Mom&#039;s been a lot of help to me lately. Although sometimes she can be a bit overbearing. Nevertheless, we&#039;re finally getting along well, which really means our relationship has come a very long way from what it used to be like. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, that&#039;s about it for now. I&#039;m taking sister to get some new tires on her car tomorrow so she&#039;ll have a way to go. Then have laundry to do &amp;amp; a few other things to do. oh drudgery! Maybe I&#039;ll even wash my truck &amp;amp; Boomer tomorrow. We&#039;ll have to wait and see how I&#039;m feeling in the morning when I wake up. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<title>Install An Interior Or Exterior Door Those looking to change a room</title>
		<category>The first blog</category>
		<pubDate>2008-08-04T10:29:09Z</pubDate>
		<description>Install An Interior Or Exterior Door Those looking to change a room should consider putting up a new door. Not only will it help with any insulation problems, it will change the décor. First, choose the type of door that will be put up. There are three basic groups to choose from. There are entry doors, interior doors and combination storm/screen doors. By following five steps entry doors can be replaced with ease. Once you have this skill under your belt you will be able to put up interior doors with no problem. When putting up any door the general premise is the same. The only real difference is whether or not it is an exterior or interior door. You begin by taking off the old door. Tuck a wedge under the outside corner and release the hinges. Once the door is off there are two options available. The first one is to hang the door from loose-pin hinges. Part of the hinge is hooked into the door and the other half is hooked into the doorframe. If you are working in an old house, the hinge might not be so cooperative due to years of paint build up. When this happens you should unscrew the hinges and take off the doorframe to get the door off. Next you will take the hinge leaves off of the door. You can hang new ones or use the old ones. Buff the old ones with a sander and use a clear protective coating to cover it. New hinges should be the exact same size as the previous ones. Shape the hinges they way that you would like and put the new hinge leave on the frame of the door. The screws must be long enough to go trough the stud-wall framing and the frame of the door. After that you will need to trim the door. Take notes from &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.doors-china.com/&quot;&gt;Interior Doors&lt;/a&gt; the previous door if needed. If the new door is in line with the old one than trimming may not be necessary. However, if the old door is not a good example, measure the door opening and leave a 1/8 bottom clearance and 1/16 at the side and top. If there is carpet to take into account you need to have a bottom clearance that is 3/4 more than that. A fine tooth saw will be needed for the trimming. Get the door ready for the hinges. New mortises need to be made. There will be routed or craved out depressions in which the hinges blades will be placed. This will keep the surface level. The old door can be a pattern to follow for this or you can use the new door. Put in the doorway and wedge it 1/8 away from the bottom. Put the hinge locations on the door. After that put the door on the latch edge and take a pencil or knife and trace the line to the door edge from every hinge. The new hinge on of the door should be outlined with the hinge leaf template. Use a wood chisel to leave marks on the hinge mortises. Level the cutes with the thickness of the leaf hinge. Three hinges is the usual standard for six foot tall doors. Next you need apply some wood sealant to the door and put wood screws in the hinge leaves. Next hang the door. &lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<description>Garage Doors - Both Architectural Accents and High-Tech Appliances&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Garage Doors As Home Accents&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You may be amazed to know that the rising demand for visibly appealing garage doors has caused the price of garage to rise faster than the price of any other home feature, interior or exterior, on a per-square-foot basis. Even home architects are now relying on the suppliers and installers of garage doors to advise them in choosing the best garage door designs for their specific home construction plans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Side-hinged garage doors, for example, are now available to recapture the carriage house doors of yesteryear for homeowners who are determined to maintain the period character of their residences. These doors are crafted of the finest woods and can be custom painted or stained to complement a home&#039;s colors. Side-hinged garage doors can be center or off center-set, depending on the homeowner&#039;s needs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The tree other styles of garage doors are the sectional, rolling, and over-the-top garage doors, with the over-the-top style being the most popular. Any of these types of garage doors can be constructed of wood, steel, or glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) and can be constructed with a variety of different panels and even with windows if desired. The possible variations in garage doors, in fact, are so numerous that you can easily have one customized to add a unique accent to your home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Garage Doors As Home Appliances&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You may never have thought of a garage door as another home appliance, but state-of-the-art garage doors are exactly that. With automatic openers, they offer as much time and energy-saving convenience as any other home appliance, and they also function as parts of home security systems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like any other home appliances, then, garage doors require regular maintenance to keep them operating as they were designed to.

		<title>Who Else Wants Privacy And Light Control At Your Sliding Glass Door But Hate Verticals?</title>
		<category>The first blog</category>
		<pubDate>2008-07-22T14:20:33Z</pubDate>
		<description>Who Else Wants Privacy And Light Control At Your Sliding Glass Door But Hate Verticals?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I first started in the window treatment business thirty years ago almost every one had wall to wall, floor to ceiling drapes on their windows and doorways. This meant that they were snug-as-a-bug in their rooms closed off from everyone and couldn&#039;t see out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;About this time the vertical blind started to be popular. People replaced those dungeon producing drapes with verticals that went inside the window or door frame and instantly the room was transposed into this huge space that people didn&#039;t know they had. The rooms looked so much bigger and for the first time they could see out the window or door. The cold war was over, they could see their neighbor and neighborhood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That&#039;s when the trouble began. Vertical blinds became so popular that a number of people started to make vertical and vertical components that didn&#039;t know or much less care that they didn&#039;t know what they were doing. They just wanted to make some fast money.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vendors rushed to market with vertical vane material that never should of been used for vertical vanes. They frayed, they hung crooked, they were not able to be cleaned, they faded fast and some of them were just plain terrible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To make matters worse they were loading every thing into van&#039;s and went from town to town selling this junk. In a couple of months time the verticals stoped working and these vendors were in some other city or neighborhood and -of course - couldn&#039;t be found.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because of this people took there anger and vengeance out on the vertical blind. Unfortunately people started saying &quot;I hate vertical blinds&quot; when what they really meant was they hated the cheap bargain vertical they got stuck with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today all this has changed. The national companies selling and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.doors-china.com&quot;&gt;Steel Doors&lt;/a&gt; manufacturing verticals today are great honest companies selling quality verticals and vertical components and backing them up with good reasonable guarantees.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today if a vertical gives you a problem, the manufacturer will replace or repair no questions asked as long as it&#039;s in the guarantee period.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even after the guarantee has past they will still repair the product or provide parts for a small fee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is even a place on the internet where you can get parts for just about every window blind made.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The bottom line is that if you want privacy and light control at your sliding glass door then reconsider the vertical blinds. Nothing will give you the good looks and great service that a vertical will.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no time like the present to forgive the vertical blind. Forgive and move on to great looks and quality vertical blinds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You see no matter how much you say you hate verticals, they are the only, and I do mean only window treatment that will allow you to have both light control and privacy at a sliding glass door.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Drapes give you privacy but you can&#039;t see out. Horizontal blinds are not practical unless you have a 96&quot; high opening and then they are a pain to open and close if you use the door at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is nothing that works like a vertical or vertical shadings to give you that feeling of openness and light control while providing privacy at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quality is definitely in the verticals of today. The products offered today have been tested by time and countless thousands of children and pets all across the country. They are built tough to take the wear and tear of everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<title>Painting the Front Door Will Help You Sell Your Home</title>
		<category>The first blog</category>
		<pubDate>2008-07-22T14:20:19Z</pubDate>
		<description>Painting the Front Door Will Help You Sell Your Home&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your front door can make or break a sale. Would-be buyers will drive past a home that has a dingy front door. On the other hand, an attractive front door will lure would-be buyers inside. But as I discovered, choosing a paint color for the front door can be difficult.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am putting my deceased daughter&#039;s home up for sale next month. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.doors-china.com&quot;&gt;China doors&lt;/a&gt; The siding is tan and the trim, shutters, and front door are white. Unfortunately, the door does not look fresh any more, thanks to hand prints and paw prints. Painting the door is at the top of my To Do list. Michelle Dawson tells why fresh paint is crucial to a sale in her article, &quot;Want to Sell Quickly? Think Paint,&quot; published on the Wells Fargo Web site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;If nothing else, paint at least the door, door frame, and foyer or first room the would-be buyers will see,&quot; she advises. I followed this advice and hired a painter to freshen up the interior walls.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most homes have at least three paint colors, according to Jackie Craven, author of &quot;Picking House Colors,&quot; which is on the architecture.about.com Web site. One color us used for the siding, a second for the eaves and trim, and a third to accent the architecture. &quot;A well-chosen selection of contrasting trim and accent colors can draw attention to architectural details and disguise design flaws,&quot; she writes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thankfully, I have no design flaws to disguise. However, I have to deal with the fact that the house is on a curve, and the the first thing would-be buyers see is the garage -- not too exciting. A bright front door would make would-be buyers notice the house. &quot;What color should I choose?&quot; I asked the painter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;I&#039;ve painted doors red, orange, and even purple,&quot; he replied. &quot;You need something more neutral.&quot; Though we considered brown, the color was too neutral. After holding various paint chips against the siding, we chose a medium green that goes with grass and flowering plants. The choice also suits the neighborhood, something else to consider.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paint colors vary from region to region, according to Al Heavens, author of &quot;Right Paint Choices are Key to Resale,&quot; published on the Reality Times Web site. He thinks &quot;a spanking-new paint job that&#039;s crisp and fresh can really reel them[would-be buyers] in no matter where you live.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A gardener is going to plant flowers alongside the garage to give the house more curb appeal The flowers will lead would-be buyers to the front door and colorful porch planters. &quot;How to Add Interest to a Front Door,&quot; published on www.About.com, contains other tips for sellers, including washing the windows, watering plants [and a lawn] regularly, and adding a seasonal flag.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am doing all I can to sell the house. Hopefully, these changes will get would-be buyers&#039; attention, lure them inside, and make them want to live there. If you are selling your home think about painting the front door a happy, welcoming color. A little paint can lead to lots of offers.&lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<description>Door Hardware - An Overview Of Door Hardware In The 21 Century&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The faĂ§ade of your house is your image to the rest of the world. From the color of the paint to your style of siding, how your lawn is kept or the door hardware you use.

From pocket door hardware and sliding door hardware to garage door hardware. The one key exception is in regards to pocket door hardware.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pocket door hardware is functional and has no bearing on physical appearance. The pocket door hardware includes rails of metal or plastic with rollers or casters that allows the door to glide into and out of an extended wall on either side to seal off a room. The pocket door hardware can be cheap or expensive. The expensive side allows your doors to remain steady and glide shut easily whereas the cheaper will have you seeing your door sag and be tougher to pull shut.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The inlay handles are the one part of pocket door hardware that is decorative. You can get them in silver, gold and plastic. The metal pocket door hardware is able to be etched or engraved which is recommended if you want some style.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sliding door hardware is slightly less hard to get hold of than that of pocket doors. Their located near the back of the house, leading out to the pool or the deck. The sliding door hardware is primarily a sturdy plastic but it doesnâ€™t have to be. It can be replaced with metal of aluminum or you can go high hog and get silver or gold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does the sliding door hardware keep the door snug to frame or away from it? Does it hang, suspended or firmly attached? Does the sliding door hardware allow your door to glide softly or squeak in pain when you close it? Choose sliding door hardware based on these thoughts as well as money you wish to spend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Garage door hardware is often times overlooked, but depending on your style of house itâ€™s one of the first things people see when coming to visit. Besides the usual garage door hardware we have to have such as a motor, metal beams and the sort. Theyâ€™re useful to shop for when you need your door to close smoothly but the look doesnâ€™t matter as long as it functions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The exterior garage door hardware, like the sliding door or pocket door is overlooked. Choosing from handles of aluminum, gold or silver or simple twist knobs to turn and pull open the door also in the styled metals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The real style points come from the exterior door hardware. Choosing from gold or silver, from knobs to push unlocks. The choices are varied and can sometimes be hard to decide on. Besides the regular door hardware you can select to have knockers affixed along with your door knobs for added flare. This door hardware is not only fun but classical. The lionâ€™s head is a popular favorite but your regular etched door hardware as a knocker will work just as well and be eye-catching.&lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<title>Opening up Your Structure - Folding Sliding Systems</title>
		<category>The first blog</category>

		<description>Opening up Your Structure - Folding Sliding Systems&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Doors- are much more than just entry and exit points. They provide a glimpse into the lifestyle of the people behind them. Be it an entrance to a home, office, shop or restaurant, it should be inviting and a reflection of the general air of the building. Entrance &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.doors-china.com&quot;&gt;Interior Doors&lt;/a&gt; systems should blend themselves well with the architecture without loosing its prime focus on â€“ Protection and Privacy. Depending on the variable needs of the above two, doors could be ornamental, encrusted or transparent/translucent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These days many options for space-saving yet functional entrance systems, walls and windows are pouring in the market. These range from glass folding doors, sliding doors, folding sliding doors, folding windows and an exhaustive range of wall systems. As against conventional door openings, folding systems allow opening up to 95% of the total width.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Glass doors are not only aesthetic and elegant to look, they also increase light and space, flexibly trying to integrate beauty with purpose. Glass doors or walls or windows provide exciting solutions without harming the character of the building. A set of folding sliding doors can remarkably blend spaces together, remove barriers between the outside and literally bring the outside in conforming to the natural environment around it. Folding sliding doors are also referred to as sliding folding doors, bi-fold, accordion door, folding windows and concertina door.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aluminum and timber (wood) folding systems or a combination of both are equally viable options as is glass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apart from enhancing beauty, folding systems also emphasize on energy efficiency, protection against natural calamities like hurricane, burglaries and acting as an acoustic barrier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the energy efficiency quotient, the aluminum and wood folding doors and walls systems top the list while in acoustics nothing is better than glass. A brief update on each of these features is as below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Energy efficiency:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The main factors that are considered in energy efficiency of a folding system are:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. The U- factor- The rate at which heat leaves a building. The lesser the better. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. The R- factor- This gives a measure of insulation that a wall/ door/ window is providing. Contrary to U factor, the value for R-factor should be higher for better insulation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. SHGC- Solar heat gain co-efficient This indicates how well a product blocks heat from the sun. The lower the number the better. A low SHGC means the window transmits less solar heat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. VT- Visible transmittance refers to visible light being transmitted. The higher the VT, the more light is transmitted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Air leakage- Heat loss and gain occur by infiltration of air &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.doors-china.com&quot;&gt;Pvc Doors&lt;/a&gt; through the cracks in the window assembly. The lower the AL the better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Condensation resistance- This measures the ability of a system to resist the formation of condensation on the interior surface of that product &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Safety against Hurricane: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Superior glass folding systems like those of NanaWall Systems provide excellent protection against natural calamities like hurricane. Passing through intense tests like the Miami Dade County Test Protocols PA201, PA202, PA203, NanaWall folding systems are approved for use in hurricane sensitive localities. &lt;br /&gt;Apart from hurricane, these system offer weather tightness and are much more capable of withstanding adverse weather.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Safety against Burglaries: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Glass systems include wire meshes within multi layers of glazed glass that offers security from hit from balls, axe or even bullets. Depending on the level of security required, one has an option to go for a suitable toughened glass. Laminated glass is the best option.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Acoustic barrier: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The acoustical performance of glass folding walls and doors is magnificent as it blocks out almost 75% of noise. Laminated glass with ingrained insulation is the best solution for those seeking acoustical separation from the outside world.&lt;br /&gt;</description>
