Today's project started out to be the replacement of the adjustable springlatch on our back door latch mechanism.
It's made by Weiser and I was pleased to find that Home Depot had the replacement part on their website. So we went to the Home Depot on the southside of Jonesboro to get one.
But, of course, the Weiser line of locks is available only from the Home Depot website - not the stores.
So while we were there, we checked out the ceiling fans because we need one in our upstairs office. Since the ceiling is kinda low and there is already plenty of recessed lighting, we didn't want one with a set of lights hanging down to bang our heads on.
And we were looking in the $50 price range. The only had a couple of choices and they didn't really fit with our decor.
So we went to the hated Lowe's to look for the latch and found the same non-Weiser brands as at Home Depot.
But they did have a $49.95 52" Harbor Breeze ceiling fan (see illustration) that was just what we've been looking for.
So we came home and I ordered the latch mechanism from the Home Depot website for $13.90 - tax included, free shipping - and we assembled and hung the fan this evening.
