EgunMogaji: YES Sir. Those are the doors Chinese called "Steel" just a thin layer covering some wood particles.. or some of them use foam type. They generally call them "Chinese Steel Doors". Do a search on You-tube to see how they are made. cc: @Barryton Hajji M. |

Once buildings are completed, whether residential or commercial, it's time to dress up the windows in the most appropriate way- window blinds. That's where you need us to give your windows the most efficient covering. There are many reasons to prefer window blinds to curtains. 1. Control the Light Entering the Room Window blinds provide you with more control over the amount of light entering the room because you can cover the entire window or just part of the window according to your own needs. For example, the slats on some window blinds are fitted so tightly together that they do not allow any light in at all. This could be ideal for a room where you have a home theater or in your bedroom where you don’t want any light to wake you up in the morning. 2. Countless Styles, Colors, & Patterns Window blinds come in an endless variety of styles, colors, and patterns, allowing you to create the perfect look in your kitchen, living room, or bathroom. Choose from mini blinds, vertical blinds, day and night blinds, and even cordless blinds, which are safer for children and also being very elegant. 3. Wide Variety of Materials The variety of materials that blinds come in allows you to choose the blind that is most suitable for you in terms of both price and style. For example, if your living room contains wooden furniture, you can complement the room by installing wooden blinds. However, if you find wooden blinds too expensive, you can opt for faux wood instead to keep the costs down. You then have plastic blinds, bamboo blinds, aluminum blinds, and other materials to choose from to ensure that you can always find the right blinds for any room in your home. 4. Enjoy Complete Privacy Blinds provide you with a level of privacy that you cannot get from many other options such as curtains. For the ultimate in privacy control, consider installing top-down shades. Using these, you can lower the shade from the top so that the natural light can come in, but you can still enjoy as much privacy as you require. 5. Easy to Maintain Finally, one of the best things about window blinds is that they are typically very easy to maintain. In fact, many blinds simply require a quick wipe with a damp cloth from time to time to remove the dust. Compare this to curtains, which need to be washed every once in a while, and blinds start to look like the most convenient option. In addition, they are also long lasting, especially blinds made from wood or aluminum, meaning you won’t have to replace them until you decide you are ready for a change. Call or WhatsApp 08025101177 for your blinds today. We sell and install far and near promptly. |

youngice: allCopacetic: From the above, one person says it is okay to connect the lightning arrestor serially with the earthing electrodes. Another is saying there should never be any connection between the two. So who do I believe? I ask because my electrician connected the earthing of the house to the grounding of the lightning arrestor. But another electrician is screaming that it is dangerous and that it should never be done. cc: allcopacetic, topsy23,youngice, glcnigeria, |

EgunMogaji: like seriously, nigeria is a mess/jaga jaga. i threw in 4 units of 250w panels into an suv i shipped from the usa, a couple of years back, the clownish custon personnel who checked the car, wrote 1 pack/carton of solar panels and placed a 150k abi 120k duty on the panels alone!!!. when i protested that it was just 4 panles, not 1 carton[whatever that means in customs world], i was told that the info has already been entered in their ledger, that if i want a reassesment, the car would be taken off the queue, and placed at the beginning of the queue again.. for a country experiencing poor power supply, i believe the govt should encourage people willing to bring in such, since nigeria doesnt produce such, and offer dirt cheap custom/clearing rates 1 Like |

danowena: Earthing of your lightning protector is to conduct current from lightning strikes safely to earth. Earthing of your electrical installation is for conducting of fault current / leakage to earth. Faulty earthing or bad design is why we are sometimes electrocuted by household items. The moment there ie earth leakage, your earth leakage breaker should trip. Earthing requires regular checking and maintenance to ensure that Earth resistance has not built up. In domestic installations, checking of the integrity of earth installations is rarely if ever done. What this means is that in the event of a lightning strike, a bad earthing installation may fail to conduct the current to earth. If the arrester earthing and building earthing are linked, the current may travel into your system and destroy your electronics. It is better you keep earthing of lightning protection and building separate. The cost implication is not significant 1 Like |

keziah123: are you sure?...like really reaaly sure. am sure customs would find a way of making you pay, just like the usual bail is free lingo with nigerian police. customs usually charge extra money for tangible items loaded in a shipped car...they dont care what it, panels ,microwave, tv, fridge etc...if this money is remitted to govt coffers is another question entirely |
