      Tape the door with masking tape about 5mm in to leave a perfect line

    Fantastic job! Wish u fitted my door as my fitters did a poor job from start to finish! Liked the finishing touches. Quick question the internal draught excluder should it be touching the door all around as mine has gaps in places as the door is not fully square in the frame. Top edge of the door it tight and crushing the draught excluder.

    Good job, does the screws for the door frame screw into the exterior brick course or the interior?

  • @peterryan7827
    @peterryan7827 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great job, a couple of questions do you always leave the door in the frame when fixing, I assumed you would remove it fix the frame then rehang simply because of the weight ,and those fixings ,no raw plugs just drive straight into brickwork,is that right, just checking we have a one to do at home and contemplating doing it ourselves,.

    I stopped fitting composite doors as they are nothing but trouble they all bow after a while and then won’t close properly. All the manufacturers have tried different things to stop them bowing but none can get it right and it costs you time and money going back to change them☹️

  • @mmack3286
    @mmack3286 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Very informative video! I have a quick question - you know the stylish stain glass window in the middle of the door? Well mine leaks a little in the corners (from indoors) when it rains heavily. What is the reason and best solution? Any tips appreciated. Thanks

  • @lukaszksepka6715
    @lukaszksepka6715 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just have a question.
    Why all video's show that you fit doors with frame same time.
    Its not gona be easy to fit the frame first and then hange the door.
    Or you have to fit frame with door due to the weigh of the door?
    Thank you.

    What were the screws you used? Are they the ones that don't need a plug?

    • @ACAIDC
      @ACAIDC 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They are just masonry frame fixing screws. They don't need wall plugs. They are very common on composite door installs.

  • @miketravis6149
    @miketravis6149 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I had new windows fitted a while back and I said to the fitters don`t bother fitting the edging strips as I would re-paper up to the reveal. They told me the job would look neater. In reality the edging covered up a gap you could get your finger through. Same with the outside. The strips they silicone on bend and twist over time. I took them off and back filled with exterior filler and replaced them. Can`t fault the windows, just the finish.

    • @Stucrompton1
      @Stucrompton1  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      depends what silicone they used and how they were put on, ive never had a complaint about trims twisting and falling off in all the time ive been doing it. At least you sorted it :)

    • @miketravis6149
      @miketravis6149 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think this was due to the gap between brick and window, as I said I back filled it an replaced the strip on the outside and it fitted flush. As for the inside I filled and papered up to the window. Thanks for your reply. All the best. Keep making more videos. ;)
