Small Mezuzahs?

8/29/2021

So if you spend time watching my videos on You Tube or reading my website you will quickly learn that small mezuzahs are almost always problematic and that is why I don't sell them. So what do we do if someone has a small case that has sentimental value? My solution is to attach the small case onto a larger case that can accommodate a larger Kosher scroll so we can use the small case and still have a kosher Mezuzah.

Computer checked?

Poorly written Mezuzah. Missing a letter. On the Mezuzah is a sticker saying it passed computer examination. How can this happen?

Either the sticker was put on by mistake.
or the Sofer didn't do a proper reading of the report from the results of the computer examination.

Mezuzah Too High?

When the bottom third of a doorpost is higher then your shoulder it goes at shoulder height usually about 60 inches from the floor. The Mezuzahs here is placed way to high I could not reach it at all. It needs to be corrected.

Affixing Mezuzahs

I was in a home this morning taking down Mezuzahs for checking and shockingly discovered 9 out of 12 Mezuzahs put up incorrectly. As you can see in the photo attached they were hanging only from the screw on the top. The Kitzur Shulchan Aruch calls such a Mezuzah "a hanging Mezuzah" and rules that it is not Kosher. I.e it can be the most Mehudar Mezuzah but if not hung properly it is not Kosher. If you need screws or tape to affix the Mezuzahs properly, I will supply free of charge. just reach out to me

Mezuzah Fire Damage

1/28/2018

These Mezuzahs were in a house that had a fire, as you can see these Mezuzahs were all damaged. Unfortunately the Mezuzahs on the doors closest to the area where the fire broke out were consumed in the flames. The one on the right was the first Mezuzah I found within close proximity to the area where the fire broke out, As you can see it has begun to melt and had extensive damage and had to be put in Sheimos, The one in the middle which was a bit further away the case has begun to warp slightly and the Mezuzah only had minor damage. The one on the left was even further and was only covered in soot. and aside from smelling like smoke there was little to no damage discovered due to the smoke. Unfortunately fire proof Mezuzah cases don't exist yet, who knows maybe one day in our future...
