They go to 15 feet, IIRC. How tall is your foyer?Ugh, that sucks. My 250# ass definitely doesn't need to be 20' in the air on a ladder. And I don't think the HD scaffolds go over 10 or 12 feet.
After using one of those, I don't see how I ever got along without it. Handier than a pocket on a shirt.Assuming you're roughly 6', that looks about right for an HD rental.
I may just say f-it and go buy one of those Werner ladders. 21' with extensions (the Little Giant type) for $120 at lowes, and the split height adjustment would let me use it ont he stairs where I need to fix drywall waves and pops.
It appears to be 20', but I need to double check. It's definitely no less than 18.They go to 15 feet, IIRC. How tall is your foyer?
Well what was Mrs. Supe doing the whole time?!It damn near killed me and took all day, but even with the shitty lawn, it looks 10,000x better.
Eh, get the Nest Hello instead as a replacement. :thumbs:On the plus side, my coworker has one of those 21' multi-use ladders from Werner (like the ones Little Giant sells) he said I can borrow. I may just give it a shot and see how stable it feels. If its not too bad, I can fix the f*cking doorbell while I'm up there instead of hiring an electrician (someone pushed the doorbell button in so far it cracked and got stuck, so the circuit was closed all day and fried the chime unit. Was buzzing when I disconnected it, so transformer is probably OK.)
She helped later in the day. Of course, she also helped the side closest to the house, which was in the shade...Well what was Mrs. Supe doing the whole time?!
I've been looking at several of the Nest/Ring-esque options for home security, but the doorbell is one I'm screwed on. The trim around the door is very narrow, so one of those would only work if mounted to the brick, which would in turn mean cutting out a chunk of interior wall to be able to reroute the lines through the brick veneer. No thanks.Eh, get the Nest Hello instead as a replacement. :thumbs:
But the Hello specifically has a narrow design footprint and also comes with an angle bracket for extra narrow installations. I was skeptical as well for my installation for some of the reasons you mentioned. But it worked out nicely. May want to double-check all the measurements & dimensions.I've been looking at several of the Nest/Ring-esque options for home security, but the doorbell is one I'm screwed on.

Negative. And I wouldn't want something that ran on batteries either, especially in winter. It uses the same low voltage infrastructure as most existing doorbell systems.I haven't looked at the ring but thought those were wireless?
I'll need to check. I didn't know they came out with slimline versions like the Ring Pro.

I just want to use it to evaluate when I should answer the door naked/dressed up like a devil, as opposed to knowing when the neighborhood kids just want to invite my daughter over to swim.we just don't answer the door I mean this isn't 1980 when people used to come visit randomly..
Unfortunately, Megan's Law dictates some discretion when it comes to naked door answering.You're saying you don't just always answer the door naked? It explains the Amazon Prime thing, for sure.
This Megan person sounds like a real downer.Unfortunately, Megan's Law dictates some discretion when it comes to naked door answering.
