Hi Dorothy!
D I posted before and didn't get an answer. Does anyone have any suggestions D about how to cover double glass doors (four doors total, all together). Bec use D of the concrete lintelle at the top, we cannot get screws to go in far enou h D to hold. Is it possible to use a masonary bit to drill into the conrete, then use plastic anchors to hold the screws? D The house was built in 1983 - and there must be lots of other people with t is D same problem. We can screw plywood to the sides - but not across the top a d D that still leaves those two doors exposed. D D Help please - there's another hurricane brewing and we need to be better D prepared. Hopefully it will miss you! - ¯ barry.martinþATþthesafebbs.zeppole.com ® * Not with a full deck: Bad spot on the disk. --- þ RoseReader 2.52á P003186 þ The Safe BBS þ Bettendorf, IA 563-359-1971 --- þ RIMEGate(tm)/RGXMod V1.13 at BBSWORLD * |

Thanks. Friday everything was such a mess here - we tried drilling into the
concrete and it just didn't work. My DH stopped in at HD and Lowe's and looked at the Ramsets - I think both stores rent the heavier equipment. Anyway, while he was in there he bought some new drill bits. Today we tested the new ones out - and they drilled into the concrete with no problem. So - we know what the problem was and now have a Hurricane Kit complete with new drill bits and Tapcon screws, duct tape and plastic. That's just for the outside. Dorothy |
