Toilet / wash hand basin in a garage is a great addition.
Can only see a throne. No sink?

Sink is over the cistern I think?

Sink is on the tip of the toilet, an all in 1 jobby to save space leaving me with more clutter space

I thought so. Seen that idea before. Is it really practical having having to reach over?
Would you have a link to it btw, considering one for an outside WC.

Coming on really good
I always feel I'm being mean, I've never used the amount supplied in entirety from my supplier they are generous with my cash.
Last lot I ordered online away from home, they got it spot on.

Time will tell, it is only small but its purely to wash my mitts after a visit to the loo, and potentially abit of metal dust at times. I don't have a link I told the plumber what I wanted he sent me a few pics to the ones he could get and hey presto it appeared. Quite a popular thing for under stairs etc.
No heat in toilet but a thermometer will be in there and as soon as it starts getting to the frosty temps il be knocking the water off in there and draining the pipes.
Yeah I was and still.am.abit skeptical about how much water based glue was actually used. But again time will tell I guess.Coming on really good
Don't need a thermometer, a ruler will work just as well !!

Well it's 95% there now, doors are on, not sealed up yet, and I may have done a whoops and forgot to order the top filler on main doors so iv now got a 45mm gap, so going to be making something to suit as the ones they supply have to be fitted before the doors are installed....unless I break it all down again and redo it..anyway at least I'm secure and pretty water tight(ish)
This little winbags are pretty good, and now I have them can think of a few different uses
Got the sparky coming to swap the lights as theres still an issue..
And need to send an email to door supplier due to defects in the powdercoating, chips, damaged corner etc but I won't bore you with those pics.
Then it's all down to me, tiling the toilet, painting walls etc etc so progress will slow up abit now but I will keep posting

I'd thought about timber and although it would take along time to rot I don't want the risk/hassle..
So plan is to get either some box section made up the correct size with a plate spot welded to the front then coated to match (as close as can be) then on the inside bolt/rivet a panel to it, so it would look like the actual beam that's meant to be there.
I will see though

That would work, but a strip of upvc trim, glued on, foam the back, then upvc on the inside too.

There alot sturdier than the "secure" doors offered by the likes of other garage door companies.
These ones are 1.8mm thick (double skin) with alot of locking points
3 top
3 bottom
7 on inside edge like a house door
Then either 3 or 4 "pins" on the hinged sides so if hinges gey done then they don't flop open
And on the leaf side there's a top and bottom bolt that sites in the door frame.
Over all I'm happy with them.
Company name is lathams steel doors, this is the largest double door they do and I'm yet to try and get a car in the garage (skips in the way) fingers crossed though
