Had to choose between a 3/8-inch and a 1/2-inch drive for a stubborn hoistway door roller bolt
Went with the 1/2-inch and the extra torque saved me from rounding the head, but man, my wrist is feeling it today. What's your go-to for seized hardware in tight spaces?
Right, @stella111? They look like just a slab of metal until you see the latch rollers, the interlock, the whole setup. It's a whole little machine hiding in the wall. Dylan's comment makes it sound so basic, but there's nothing simple about that puzzle.
