Default Airbags at Lidl

I've found them very useful for lifting washing machines and freezers up to adjust their legs. I think one of the main things they are designed for is fitting window frames, if you have a few of them (the bags that is).

I've also found them useful for lifting heavy doors up so you can get the hinge in line with the screw holes and I had a baby gate that needed taking apart and an airbag was the only way I could exert enough force on it without damaging it.


Both useful tips, must try to remember them. I knew about the use on
window frames but don't have any plans to do this ever!


One day I might find a child with their head stuck in some railings and they'd be useful then too!


Don't think the little lidl ones would be strong enough for that.
However I kept a couple of scissor jacks out of scrapped cars, they have
come out of storage occasionally to jack up a joist.
