Thanks - you just helped me fit my new door 👍
A specific video about installing sealed units, packers and the trim/bead/glassholdy bits (can't remember what they're called) might go down well. The instructions I had weren't very clear and getting the trim in and out was a bit of a faff until I sussed it out. Fitting the units first time with the inside facing out gave me more practise 🤣
Thanks again,
Russ
Thanks Russ! I’m chuffed it’s helped you out! I’ll make a video soon on those other bits.
Thanks,
Daz
Seeing you take out that old pvc door reminded me of my days (most of my working life) as an installer/surveyor of replacement upvc windows and doors. The amount of people demand that you remove it intact as they want to keep it. One guy actually had already sold his windows to the guy opposite as he had assumed they fall out intact. Luckily for him we were removing Ali/Mahog frames. So all but one timber frame were saved. Great content 👍
Thanks for your comment Peter, I appreciate it! Yea ive had afew customers who want the doors out intact but its always those ones that need abit of brute force to get out!
Great vid! Top job and the finish looks fantastic 👍🏻
Thanks, stay tuned for upcoming videos!
great video I am retraining as a fitter at 40 ! and your videos are really helping so thank you 😎
Thanks Graham. If you need any advice on anything else just let me know.
loads of gems in this - thanks Daz
No worries mate
Best video I've seen so far, nice one.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Big Legend!
🙌🏻
Great video mate
Cheers mate
Hello from a fellow ginger Window Fitter 😅 I've only once ever tried to secret seal and trim...customer told me it looked unfinished so had to seal it up 🙄
Great video 👍👍
Cheers mate, I’m not a fan of fitting windows in warm weather with me being ginger! 😂
Secret seal and trim I’ve only started doing it the past 6 months, so much quicker and neater I think, had a couple of customers question it saying it looks unfinished but most people like it.
Thanks for the comment 👍🏼
@@dazthedoubleglazier me either! It's been a rough few weeks 😅
Keep the videos coming matey 👍👍
Hi, one of the better door fitting vids - about to have a go at DIY installation - I like the integral window blind set up - where can I buy please?
Thanks Paul, try Morley blinds for the glass, let me know if you need any help.
Great video. Can you do how to fit a window next?
Hi Thomas, yes ill be filming a how to fit a window in the coming weeks.
Nice video, do you generally use concrete screws as opposed to plugs for brick? Thank you.
Hi Richard,
Yes we always use concrete screws, very very rare we would use plugs nowadays.
Just found your videos thanks! Just about to try and fight a uPVC door in my garage. I know you take 10mm from the lowest figure what do you do about the door sill/threshold? If you have a video explaining or can let me know that would be great thank you
Hi, you would still take 10mm to 15mm in height, your cill will be 30mm plus the threshold. I always measure the internal aswell and if theres a massive difference ill allow for this with an addon. not sure if that helps, hope it does.
The glazing and especially beads have always been a dark art to me, could you do a video explaining how to install? And if you rocked up at a job how you would know how they’re installed and how to remove without damaging?
Great vid!
Hi mate, yes ill be filming a video on how to remove the beads in the next couple of weeks. Doing the job for over 20 years you kinda know how theyre fitted just by looking at them nowadays and it becomes sort of second nature, ill explain in the video coming soon for you. Thanks for the comment!
@@dazthedoubleglazier legend, would have loved it 25 yrs ago! Rained off and in a factory for a day, I had NFI was even shown up by a useless storeman pretending to be a carpenter! But he’d worked years with Everest! He knew I didn’t! I was the fool that day.
No it’s more for interest, not really a thing out here in Oz I don’t think.
Enjoying your videos mate 👍🏻
Cracking video first off, ive been in the industry for over 20yrs. Love who i work for but over the last few years ive been thinking more and more about going on my own. Only ever worked for the company im still currently at since i left school worked my way up BUT i really want to have a go on my own. A few things put me off like getting paid off customers and getting the work in, any advice please cheers
Hi Rob,
Thanks for the comment, I’m planning on doing a video in the coming weeks that will hopefully cover somethings about going on your own and the things I’d do differently. If you’ve been at your current job 20 years already and have a good relationship with the boss I’m sure if it didn’t work out for you they’d have you back? If you want any questions answering in the video let me know and I’ll do my best or DM over on instagram id be happy to help. Cheers, Daz
nice work.... sub'd
Cheers, I appreciate it! 👍🏼
More fitting videos
I’ll do my best
I know you sealed your dpc down but the damp can still get through the original dpc and as your door is pvc you could of cut the old one off then sealed your cill to the brick then no damp or insects will get through just saying
So on any pvc door it doesnt need dpc?
@@dazthedoubleglazier no but you put dpc down then stuck/sealed your cill to it
@@dazthedoubleglazieryou put new dpc sealed to the old which insects ie 🐜 and 🐛 can get under the dpc should be cut out and the cill sealed to the brick no
Hi What size wall fixing screws did you use please?
Hi, I used 120mm spax fixings. Hope that helps.
@@dazthedoubleglazier Many thanks Daz
@@tony78652 No problem, anytime
Hate all that trim that gets slapped all over
Get u self a resip saw save you a lot of time
I’ve got one, it was on the other van! 🤦♂️😆
FIRST, get a door that fits the hole, which most don't
sodding PLASTIC
You're unfit, Daz. Breathing gives it away.
Cheers Michael! 👍🏼
What tool belt you got Dan? Love it! Especially way hammer tucks in, I hate those stupid metal rings
@@Dazza19746 Hi mate, its a Diamondback tool belt from tftools very expensive but I wouldnt be without it now, highly reccomend getting a rig setup mate.
Cheers, Daz
