There's a reason why Robin knows so much about his trade, and it is at 8 minutes and 9 seconds of this video. You never stop gaining knowledge and Robin, despite being at the top of his game, is still, open to learning. I also notice that he has an almost perfectly linear saw stroke.

I love seeing & watching everyday jobs that need to be done as we/most people have a garage (SOME DO SOME DONT). I love picking up tricks & tips see new products that are new to me. Robin can you make more videos like this please fella. 👍👍👍
Its bizarre!! my pencil has a mind of its own and pocket hops!!! the strange thing is that when I was younger the pencil would stay firmly put behind my ear but as I have got older it now falls off!!!!
When I fit my garage timber doors Robin I soaked the 'goal post' frame in clear oil based Cuprinol and let it soak up the grain to avoid rot. Also I use Sikens HLS Cetol to preserve and protect, brilliant product. Doesn't flake, just flat down and go on with an extra coat. Great video.
Robin, I'd have used a nice big flat penny type washer under the nuts securing the hinge bolts. The nuts can then be tightened properly without sinking into the wood. Another great video, love the workmanship
Hi Robin. We moved house recently & the garage has an ill-fitting up & over steel door. Planning to take it off & fit side-hung wooden doors but I haven't been able to find a useful video, until coming across your channel. I'm a semi-competent DIY-er but this video breaks down all the steps with great explanations. Thankyou!
That is one of the easiest locks to brake, just a pair of stilsons on the barrel and it soon twists and snaps the two brass screws holding it in place. These are very common locks in Spain on metal doors, and we always weld a steel ring round the part that protrude on the front. I would advise to change for the short one if it just sits flush with the wood.
As a recent woodworking enthusiast, I'm enjoying the videos Robin, thanks very much. This one was especially helpful as I' m going to replace my old battered aluminium garage door this weekend with a pair of Jeld Wen wooden doors. As you say, they are so reasonably priced - glazed version for just over 250 quid !! - and they look really nice. Shame that one of the panes of obscured glass has a hairline crack. I asked the supplier if there was any chance of sourcing a replacement pane, but he said that the manufacturers get the glass from Estonia, so the chances of finding an exact match locally are pretty slim I would think, and a pane that isn't a perfect match would look far more noticeable than a hairline crack. Never mind, still very pleased with them for the price. Thanks again. :-)
Thanks Robin watched the video twice and made fitting my 1st set of garage doors a breeze with a happy client at the end. Will defiantly be watching more of your videos.
Great work, would recommend fitting with the new square cut to the top, as the uncut end would have been soaked with the impregnated solution and would last longer
Just fitted some and the part about he bias of the hinges makes total sense. I’d taken into consideration about the hinge dropping but not the bottom hinges got the other way!!
This takes me back a bit. Manufacturing and fitting garage doors back in the 80's. I imagine they were replaced or demolished since. A bit of paint underneath on the cut horns (joggles) will give it another 5 minutes before rotting haha.
Hi Robin. watching this again and shared it with some good dudes that enjoyed it as well ... they build here and faced a similar obstacle ... it's inspiring to some of us to see these special steps you do for the love of the game and the art of it all. thanks again man!
Best way to tension a chalk line is two times around your index finger then place on your mark with your thumb ,taught me by my father 50 years ago , Grand video Robin
You forget to mention one of the most important steps when hanging any exterior door, a step many joiners can't be arsed with, probably because you can't tell once it's hung. Treating the bottom of the door before you hang it, especially the stiles, and in this case, the trimmed match board. I probably wouldn't on garage doors, but I always fit a drip, not one of the oversized off the shelf ones, but a smallish one made up in the workshop, it all helps to protect the bottom edge of the door.
Lovely work Robin. Great to have tutorials on stuff like this that might be more common to the diyer than installing kitchens etc (which are also brilliant to watch). Great work s always 👌🏼🏴👍🏼
Hi Robin really enjoyed the video. I would like to add that the barrel lock is prone to get pass. The crooks place a set of plumbers stilsons on the pertruding part and simply turn. It is best to use a flush barrel.
It was nice to see you use the saw horses.After watching your video. I made a pair out of CLS timber just for fun .Turned out to be a good exercise . The angle template makes things easy . I'll use planed timber next time though.Stay Safe.Stay Well. Happy Crimbo
Very nice job as always. Always hate using those hinges. So much play in them. That locks excellent. Your colleague is a lucky guy. Hope he appreciates working with someone so knowledgeable.
And at 09:57 there were 85,000 viewers all shouting at their screens "It's on top of the vacuum, right in front of you" :) Excellent video and channel, I've been binge watching for a couple of months now. You have a great teaching style and your videos are really informative. I served a 5 year apprenticeship as a joiner back in the early 90's , unfortunately the company I was with went pear shaped in the recession in the late 90's along with a lot of other building companies and it was difficult getting another job in the trade, so I ended up with a complete career change and working in an office. Watching you videos really has me missing working on site, the job, the mates and the banter. Though i still have the uncontrollable addiction to buying new tools :)
Our boiler makers used Wolf brand angle grinders but they got hammered and we got through them almost as fast as the discs. We swapped to Metabo and never looked back. 40 years later I still have a Metabo corded hammer drill. It’s amazing.
This was the first video I have watched with Mr. Clevit. I have since watched a whole bunch. This guy is amazing!! I love the videos on putting big steel beams in old houses to support lofts and such. I am in California and there r a lot of differences in the way things r done here. His precision in cutting rafters and showing us how is great. Thank u fir all the education. Using the screw in piles for your patio foundation was great too. I’m rambling.
Hi Bill, thanks you for taking the time to watch my content, and also message me, I love California!!! we have plenty of rain here at the moment and what I would do for a few dry sunny days mate!! all the best Robin
Hi Bill, I’ve been watching all of Robins videos and like you I to have learnt a lot, it’s about sharing knowledge and making us all better in the way we Think, Approach & Execute our jobs wealth of knowledge is a powerful tool & the opportunity to learn it should never be looked over take care stay safe
Hi robin , nice job, you clearly know your stuff, Just be aware with security locks were the cylinders stick out from the face of the door, they are vulnerable to attack. With out fitting security escutcheons. See this a lot and every scallywag knows about how easy cylinder locks open when they stick out....
ive seen people cut the bottom of doors with a bevel leading backwards so it acts as a drip edge so the water cant run down the door and across the end grain, i thought it was worth sharing
Love these gatemate locks used two of them on my drive gates also not sure if aware but if you have two locks you can use the same key to open them just on the inside only
Hi Robin Just watched your video on hanging garage doors 2 things I learned & or was told was 1) When cutting the bottom of the garage doors was to cut them on an angle this cuts down on the amount of wood touching the floor then dress the cut with tar or in this case you could use your tape 2) strap hinges I always lined the pin of the hinge with a rolled up coke can as a sleeve that way it stopped the end play and stopped hinge from flopping about but it didn’t bind the hinge I learnt these tips from an elderly Irish Carpenter by the name of Danny he was such a clever guy and a brilliant teacher and workmate anyway I hope you find the 2 tips useful take care & stay safe
That sagging gutter, the moss covered brick pillar, and rot mostly to that same side of the old door all tell a tale. That needed sorting before putting in a nice, new door & frame.
Loved the video mate. In the future I plan to change my old up and over garage door for a wooden garage door similar to this as I feel it would be more secure. I plan to make the doors myself to keep costs down and maybe over engineer for security reasons and maybe insulate. Hopefully I can find more great videos like this to help me. Hope you are enjoying the festive period 👍🏼
I have to say Robin I have been binge watching your videos like a box set of how to construct my 6m by 4m wooden frame workshop with a pitched roof. Yours have been the most helpful by far. I have had them on repeat while I work out overnight what the next step is. . I am a simple DIYer but like to think I have been quite handy. I did need to bone up on some techniques and your easy way to talk through the technical stuff has been great. Just hung a pair of home made 2.1m by 2.1m doors too with half laps and clad with continuous grain. Will post some pictures when it is tidied up a little. Thanks for the great tutorial. Best of luck with the tool range for the hinges and rob angle. Need to gen up on your second fix videos now! Alex
I was doing just over fifteen year's ago nothing new there made my own templates even for latches and locks , now retired due to ill heath from MDF dust, even from warring a masks, probably from the dust on my clothes, if you do use MDF caution ware masks and cover all's or vacuum yourself off after each job throughout the as I wouldn't wish this on an enemy. I can't enjoy a kick about with great grand son. It's what's on your clothes that you breath in as your movement lifts the fine dust into the air right in front of your eye's, it's so fine you don't realise the magnitude it causes. Good working, PS, get your a corner chisel trend make them one hit from hammer job done.
When you cut the horns off of the doors add a couple coats of engrain sealer from teknos or ankerstuy and repaint the ends, this will prevent the uptake of water the stiles considerably
This video for me is one week too late haha. For the first time in my career I had the pleasure to fit two new rebated garage doors next to each other down a shared alley. As you id of loved to have made them both but you just cannot compete with joinery shops/factories on costs. Those hinges really aren’t forgiving and you really do need to pull those top hinges as far over as possible. Nice video as always Robin, I hope all’s well 👍🏻
@adie chip Hi Adie. Well the clients wanted jeldwen doors but unfortunately the garage door openings were far too big for what they had to offer and as they wanted the frames replacing at the same time their was no point adding onto the frames to suite those doors. I did manage to get a company i expect is a large joinery shop to make both sets and as il be visiting the job tomorrow il take a look at the cladding to see if they've been made to suite or the last outer cladding strips have been ripped down like you have said. I expect they will be the latter. Well unfortunately my clients wanted to go with the redwood pine even though i was dead against the idea as like you say its just not really up to it. Yeah it would seem too tight for expansion especially being so exposed to the elements. Luckily i just gave the company i dealt with the overall opening size and what type of doors wanted and they worked it all out, i think each gap was about 6mm. Yes i think il agree on that with you :-) you to mate.
Nice video Robin, I did hear the vac turning on and off during the cut, I suppose you could just turn it on and leave it on. Maybe Metabo need to do a bit of work on the vibration device. Great piece of kit though, who'd have thought we'd be using cordless vacs.
Great video lots of info. Cordless dust extractor looks smart. How about coach bolts, on all the strap hinge fixing points (where you can get them in) for some extra security?
Top job Robin. Nice to see traditional doors and furniture. Wondered if you could have drilled another hole(s) on the hinge plates behind the swing arms for another scew(s) for a bit more security. Why not frame screws into the brickwork with a touch of grease on the screws. Make sure the client greases those hinges before they wear. Didn't follow how you got the top square, I'll have to watch again. Lovely job.
Nice vid and nice little job . those gatemate locks look to be ideal solution to security on some house side fencing job I got do . I picked up some metabo gear used recently and pretty pleased with it, does seem have good design . the merc van plate is a gem lol ... stay warm, does metabo have a 18v body warmer !? (remember where heard this idea first lol)
Robin. Did you show 144212 as the key numbers? Would that mean anyone could go and get that key from these key cutting places and break-in? Just a thought!!!
Nice new Metabo kit. How have the LiHD batteries been. I have quite a bit of Metabo gear which is unusual in Oz mostly Milwaukee and Makita. My HD batteries packed up very quickly in about a year and Metabo didn't want to know. So I went back to the old normal Lithiums that are much cheaper now anyway and last quite a long time. Also that stick on weather seal tape you used on your deck and the bottom of those posts. What is it as I will see if I can find it in Australia. Probably no hope as it will take another twenty years to get here if ever but worth a look as it looks to be a great product.

Lovely work as alway Robin. When I have badly sloppy hinges I use a bit of copper pipe as a bearing or bush on the pin. Loads of useful tips, thanks.
Great work, would recommend fitting with the new square cut to the top, as the uncut end would have been soaked with the impregnated solution and would last longer
Cut at the top can let water sit

Treating the bottom of the door before you hang it, especially the stiles, and in this case, the trimmed match board.
I probably wouldn't on garage doors, but I always fit a drip, not one of the oversized off the shelf ones, but a smallish one made up in the workshop, it all helps to protect the bottom edge of the door.
Lovely work Robin. Great to have tutorials on stuff like this that might be more common to the diyer than installing kitchens etc (which are also brilliant to watch). Great work s always 👌🏼🏴👍🏼
Glad it was helpful!

I genuinely always learn something from your videos and really enjoy them. Keep up the great work
I forget to charge my dust pan & brush the other day.....Bloody nightmare. 😉👍
Amazing suspension on the van, it’s always level
Hi Robin really enjoyed the video. I would like to add that the barrel lock is prone to get pass. The crooks place a set of plumbers stilsons on the pertruding part and simply turn. It is best to use a flush barrel.
Jesus! Can one of the sponsors send Rob a pair of new boots. Good job brother, always a pleasure to watch!
Best channel I’ve subscribed to! As a chippy there’s always something new to learn! Thanks robin .
It was nice to see you use the saw horses.After watching your video. I made a pair out of CLS timber just for fun .Turned out to be a good exercise . The angle template makes things easy . I'll use planed timber next time though.Stay Safe.Stay Well. Happy Crimbo
Nice one Richard really happy that you made some saw horses, they will serve you well, glad you liked the angle template too, all the best mate
Used one of them gate mate locks on an external gate last year, also thought it was brilliant!
Used one of those locks for the side gate a year ago, they are great and well built.
The Gatemate locks really are quality products, used a few myself over the last couple of years and they're still working perfectly
Very nice job as always. Always hate using those hinges. So much play in them. That locks excellent. Your colleague is a lucky guy. Hope he appreciates working with someone so knowledgeable.
Great work, now I know what to do, and love the licence plate, couldn't be better.
It’s nice to see I hang garage doors the same as you do great job
And at 09:57 there were 85,000 viewers all shouting at their screens "It's on top of the vacuum, right in front of you" :)
Excellent video and channel, I've been binge watching for a couple of months now. You have a great teaching style and your videos are really informative. I served a 5 year apprenticeship as a joiner back in the early 90's , unfortunately the company I was with went pear shaped in the recession in the late 90's along with a lot of other building companies and it was difficult getting another job in the trade, so I ended up with a complete career change and working in an office. Watching you videos really has me missing working on site, the job, the mates and the banter. Though i still have the uncontrollable addiction to buying new tools :)
This is exactly the type of job I'm going to be doing as a DIYer except I'll be making my own doors. Thanks for the vid!
Our boiler makers used Wolf brand angle grinders but they got hammered and we got through them almost as fast as the discs.
We swapped to Metabo and never looked back. 40 years later I still have a Metabo corded hammer drill. It’s amazing.
Another beautiful job Robin. Thanks for sharing this video.
This was the first video I have watched with Mr. Clevit. I have since watched a whole bunch. This guy is amazing!! I love the videos on putting big steel beams in old houses to support lofts and such. I am in California and there r a lot of differences in the way things r done here. His precision in cutting rafters and showing us how is great. Thank u fir all the education. Using the screw in piles for your patio foundation was great too. I’m rambling.
Hi Bill, thanks you for taking the time to watch my content, and also message me, I love California!!! we have plenty of rain here at the moment and what I would do for a few dry sunny days mate!! all the best Robin
Hi Bill, I’ve been watching all of Robins videos and like you I to have learnt a lot, it’s about sharing knowledge and making us all better in the way we Think, Approach & Execute our jobs wealth of knowledge is a powerful tool & the opportunity to learn it should never be looked over take care stay safe
@@johnboughton7451 Thank u!!
Hi robin , nice job, you clearly know your stuff, Just be aware with security locks were the cylinders stick out from the face of the door, they are vulnerable to attack. With out fitting security escutcheons. See this a lot and every scallywag knows about how easy cylinder locks open when they stick out....
You can buy all the fancy tools you want but you can’t buy experience. Great work as ever Robin
Quality job as always. Wish I'd seen this video a few weeks back before doing mine.
Tidy job Robin, I've been doing carpentry for 13 years and I always learn something new from your video's. Keep it up mate.
Nice job we need more videos like this what the average Joe can learn from without using expensive materials 👌
Lovely job Robin, would love to be half as skilled as you!
Lovely video Robin. Love to know what that rail saw is like compare to your festool one.
Thanks for the tip, Gatemate lock is the easiest lock I‘ve fitted in a long time.
This is a brilliant video - I'm about to make and hang doors on my workshop and this is exactly what I needed. Thanks for this brilliant info Robin!
Nice video there buddy. I'm sure it will tick the box for many folk searching How to Fit Garage Doors.
Many thanks mate
That number plate! L3VEL
@@connorjames6516 you want to sell bud?
Thought I'd seen this number plate around but not on this van..googled it and he lives about a mile away. What are the chances?
ive seen people cut the bottom of doors with a bevel leading backwards so it acts as a drip edge so the water cant run down the door and across the end grain, i thought it was worth sharing
So much wisdom in this video
Nice video Robin, really helpful tips on the hinges. I have struggled with those myself. Thank you.
Love these gatemate locks used two of them on my drive gates also not sure if aware but if you have two locks you can use the same key to open them just on the inside only
Hi Robin
Just watched your video on hanging garage doors 2 things I learned & or was told was
1) When cutting the bottom of the garage doors was to cut them on an angle this cuts down on the amount of wood touching the floor then dress the cut with tar or in this case you could use your tape
2) strap hinges I always lined the pin of the hinge with a rolled up coke can as a sleeve that way it stopped the end play and stopped hinge from flopping about but it didn’t bind the hinge I learnt these tips from an elderly Irish Carpenter by the name of Danny he was such a clever guy and a brilliant teacher and workmate anyway I hope you find the 2 tips useful take care & stay safe
Hi John, Thanks for your tips mate love the coke can one!!!!! you take care too and have a nice break, all the best Robin
As always a nice informative video Robin . Cheers. (But get those escutcheon screws all vertical for rain run through!)
That sagging gutter, the moss covered brick pillar, and rot mostly to that same side of the old door all tell a tale. That needed sorting before putting in a nice, new door & frame.
I can’t whittle a stick but really enjoy your craftsmanship.
Great videos.
Loved the video mate. In the future I plan to change my old up and over garage door for a wooden garage door similar to this as I feel it would be more secure. I plan to make the doors myself to keep costs down and maybe over engineer for security reasons and maybe insulate. Hopefully I can find more great videos like this to help me. Hope you are enjoying the festive period 👍🏼
I have to say Robin I have been binge watching your videos like a box set of how to construct my 6m by 4m wooden frame workshop with a pitched roof. Yours have been the most helpful by far. I have had them on repeat while I work out overnight what the next step is. . I am a simple DIYer but like to think I have been quite handy. I did need to bone up on some techniques and your easy way to talk through the technical stuff has been great. Just hung a pair of home made 2.1m by 2.1m doors too with half laps and clad with continuous grain. Will post some pictures when it is tidied up a little. Thanks for the great tutorial. Best of luck with the tool range for the hinges and rob angle. Need to gen up on your second fix videos now! Alex
Hi Alex, may thanks for the comment, sounds great what you are building mate thanks for watching my channel too!!
I don't know first thing about carpentry. Wasn't very good at it at School. But watching you I wish I'd persivered
As always master craftsman in action, me personally I really enjoy your videos. Tell us more about your helper
I was doing just over fifteen year's ago nothing new there made my own templates even for latches and locks , now retired due to ill heath from MDF dust, even from warring a masks, probably from the dust on my clothes, if you do use MDF caution ware masks and cover all's or vacuum yourself off after each job throughout the as I wouldn't wish this on an enemy. I can't enjoy a kick about with great grand son.
It's what's on your clothes that you breath in as your movement lifts the fine dust into the air right in front of your eye's, it's so fine you don't realise the magnitude it causes.
Good working, PS, get your a corner chisel trend make them one hit from hammer job done.
Reading you message has worried me a little to say the least ,I've been using mdf as long as i can remember not always with a mask.
When you cut the horns off of the doors add a couple coats of engrain sealer from teknos or ankerstuy and repaint the ends, this will prevent the uptake of water the stiles considerably
Excellent as usual robin ,keep them coming.
Great video! Minus the vacuum cleaner, I think I'll be mirroring this for my own garage. Thanks Robin :D
Great video Robin thanks 👍
Would be great if you could do a review on the Metabo plunge saw.
LOL, English is not ny native language. But your coment made my day, thank you 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This video for me is one week too late haha. For the first time in my career I had the pleasure to fit two new rebated garage doors next to each other down a shared alley. As you id of loved to have made them both but you just cannot compete with joinery shops/factories on costs. Those hinges really aren’t forgiving and you really do need to pull those top hinges as far over as possible. Nice video as always Robin, I hope all’s well 👍🏻
@adie chip Hi Adie. Well the clients wanted jeldwen doors but unfortunately the garage door openings were far too big for what they had to offer and as they wanted the frames replacing at the same time their was no point adding onto the frames to suite those doors. I did manage to get a company i expect is a large joinery shop to make both sets and as il be visiting the job tomorrow il take a look at the cladding to see if they've been made to suite or the last outer cladding strips have been ripped down like you have said. I expect they will be the latter. Well unfortunately my clients wanted to go with the redwood pine even though i was dead against the idea as like you say its just not really up to it. Yeah it would seem too tight for expansion especially being so exposed to the elements. Luckily i just gave the company i dealt with the overall opening size and what type of doors wanted and they worked it all out, i think each gap was about 6mm. Yes i think il agree on that with you :-) you to mate.
Nice video Robin, I did hear the vac turning on and off during the cut, I suppose you could just turn it on and leave it on.
Maybe Metabo need to do a bit of work on the vibration device.
Great piece of kit though, who'd have thought we'd be using cordless vacs.
Mr Clevett can you please do a video how you organise your tool box and what's in it please
Great video lots of info. Cordless dust extractor looks smart. How about coach bolts, on all the strap hinge fixing points (where you can get them in) for some extra security?
Nice job, those metabo tools look awesome, might be interested in getting these over my dewalt stuff.
Dont do it
@@needaman66 oh ok then
@@simonhindley7930 me too, I'm sick of this Makita rubbish. Metabo is the way to go 🤝
Another super vid. Just add a bit of DPC to the side of the legs below Brickwork DPC (150mm ish high) Main reason why legs rot out. :)
Great video mate, didn’t even know that metabo had a track saw 👍
That number plate is awesome 👌
I wanted ‘on the piss’ bought by a drunk 🥴
Top job Robin. Nice to see traditional doors and furniture. Wondered if you could have drilled another hole(s) on the hinge plates behind the swing arms for another scew(s) for a bit more security. Why not frame screws into the brickwork with a touch of grease on the screws. Make sure the client greases those hinges before they wear. Didn't follow how you got the top square, I'll have to watch again. Lovely job.
Very informative video, it’s good to see someone managing to do a first class job without Festo kit.
Sharp tools are perfectly good enough too!!! many thanks for your comment
Great work and video as usual robin 👍
Hi, this question has already been asked but no answer... what's the tape u used to seal the bottom of the uprights on the frame ??
Thanks.
Sign saying 'Garage in use, please keep clear' and someone's gone and parked their Vito right in front of it! 😉
Cool video. Doors look great 👌
Nice vid and nice little job .
those gatemate locks look to be ideal solution to security on some house side fencing job I got do .
I picked up some metabo gear used recently and pretty pleased with it, does seem have good design .
the merc van plate is a gem lol ...
stay warm, does metabo have a 18v body warmer !? (remember where heard this idea first lol)
Love your van reg. Level. class
Really useful video, thanks for sharing your knowledge. Just one point - should we have seen the key numbers?
Robin. Did you show 144212 as the key numbers? Would that mean anyone could go and get that key from these key cutting places and break-in? Just a thought!!!
They have to find the garage first!!! on a serious note that was a school boy error I made there, I will send them a new lock!!! all the best Robin
Great video Robin how does the metabo compare to your Hikoki kit ?
Stellar video again and the sound is perfect and such a gorgeous result ... also nice and long ... 10/10 !!
Thank you very much!
Nice new Metabo kit. How have the LiHD batteries been. I have quite a bit of Metabo gear which is unusual in Oz mostly Milwaukee and Makita. My HD batteries packed up very quickly in about a year and Metabo didn't want to know. So I went back to the old normal Lithiums that are much cheaper now anyway and last quite a long time.
Also that stick on weather seal tape you used on your deck and the bottom of those posts. What is it as I will see if I can find it in Australia. Probably no hope as it will take another twenty years to get here if ever but worth a look as it looks to be a great product.
Did you paint the bottom of the door after you cut the bottom off
