Also check out my video on our Exterior Front Door Removal & Installation here! th-cam.com/video/yJDdDmJx5eU/w-d-xo.html Lots of home improvement projects to come. Thanks for watching!
One of the best how-to videos I've seen - detailed, concise, w/no wasted talk. Thinking to attempt this myself.
As someone who's dealt with dropped tools/parts (in machines where it could be catastrophic if it fell/got jammed.. had thoughts of cellphone ringing as soon as I landed in St. Louis after a San Jose job - I spent about an hour finding a screw once), I've learned to put cardboard/piece of paper to catch screws.. could stuff a towel in that crack. Good days to you
I'm definitely taking your advice in the future! Thanks so much for watching and for the kind words!
Another super job. After watching your other videos it is pleasing to see home handy people publish work with clear instructions and well-filmed sequences. Plus you two always think to clean the work area as you go which is so sensible. It's inspiring and encouraging watching Maker Gray home handy people.
Thank you very much!
I hate my slider. I purchased my house 3 years ago, we have an old steel single pane slider. The wheels hardly roll, the locks don’t work. Planning on changing mine out this weekend finally lol. Yours looks great!
That's exactly how ours was! You're going to LOVE your upgrade!
What a transformation! Looks amazing!
Thanks so much Ethan!!
Thank you so much for such a clear and easy-to-follow DIY tutorial! The additional detail you provide is so helpful and the end result looks great!
I'm so glad it was helpful! Thank you very much!
Really love these videos .. so glad I found this channel. You explain things really well and with right amount of detail. Great work
Thank you so much!
You make it look almost too ez - a guy here! I’m totally impressed n blown away. Best diy channel
Thank you! 😊
Nice work. You made it look very easy. For those attempting the project, get yourselves a torx bit to go into an impact driver if you need to remove screws like they had to. It will go faster and doubtful your driver will fall down a crack!
Thanks!
Great Work, the new door and trim looks sooooooo much better.
Just out here trynna get on Rad Dad Builds level 😎 Thanks so much Nick!
This door gets a ton of use so this one project was a huge upgrade for our house! What do you think? Don't forget to subscribe because there are lots more home improvement projects coming. Thanks for watching!

quel travail gratifiant, bravo.
Thank you!
nice job!
Thanks so much!
I've been wanting to add a sliding door for a long time, but it would be filling the space where an old window and window sized hole from a former swamp cooler are. I'm still figuring out how to frame that gap out before I start, and to add more complication its on a hodge podge adobe/brick wall I have. Thanks for the post, seeing it done allows my brain to figure out the process for my own hot mess house express.
In another part of our hot mess express house we might replace an old window with another sliding door down the road. I understand because I've been thinking through what that would entail. I'm so glad to know this helps! Thanks for watching!
Is it required to put sloped sill pan?
She is impressive!!!
u made it look so ez
gr8 job i wil try 2 do minez
mahaloz n aloooooooha🤙🏾💯👊🏾😎🙏🏾
Two dudes hard at work
I love it ❤
Level up! 🍄
Thanks Brian!
That remaining glass comes out. Ours has a flat bracket that holds it closed, 2 screws.
Great video. You didn't mention what you did on the outside at the bottom of the door. How did you trim that out? How many weep holes does your door have? Mine has 4. 2 nearer to the bottom and 2 higher. Should all 4 be exposed? Or can the lower ones be covered by trim?
Did you ever figure that out?
Can i ask what size door was it before and after
That magnet 😅
How did you go about closing the gap when installing a smaller door? Wanna tackle this soon
I just added material to make up the difference. You can easily screw the addition to the existing house frame. You got this!
Lmao, The Hole of Death! I love it.
What is best way to take measurements of your door before you order it and remove the preceding door?
If your door has any trim, you can usually gently remove it to see the actual frame of the door. You can then take measurements of the height and width of the whole door frame and know exactly what you need to order.
A new lock some rollers and paint if needed.... Too many people these days throw money away.
Ha. I highly disagree. That old door was extremely inefficient and and the single pane untempered glass was dangerous. And then of course, loud, broken, dated and more. This upgrade was worth every penny.
Thank. I'm building a tiny house myself. Do you think it will be possible to install a 8'x 80" door with just two people? I was going to sub it out because I dont want to break the glass but you give me some hope...
Yes I do! Just move it slowly. You can even put it on a low furniture dolly with wheels to get it near. The rest is easy. You got this!
@@MakerGray Thank you!
@1:50 I wish you would have showed how you remove the sliding part because I think I have this exact same door. And I can't for the life of me figure out how to take the dang door out!
Shoot! Sorry about that. If I remember correctly, there were two brackets (top and bottom) that I just had to unscrew and the door came right out. You're then able to lift the door up into the top track and then swing out at the bottom. Hope this helps!
Good but I would rather see silicon at the base rather then construction adhesive and would like to see much more of it not just a simple loop (Sine wave) pattern. In your case it was somewhat weatherized but still good practice to run many lines across as a multiple defense strategy.
I personally think that she put enough. There’s no need to waste 2 tubes of silicone in one area. That’s over kill.
where did you buy the white oak?
I got it at a local lumber yard. Thanks!
@@MakerGrayIt is hard to find a black version of that sliding door. Do you have any recommendation?
@@ralphlauren6094 I unfortunately don't. Black would look amazing though!
I’m worried about that wide crack in which the tool fell.
It’s just a purposeful gap between the house foundation and the patio slab. All good :)
I was thinking of changing out my sliding door myself. I'm kind of scared. 😮
Totally understand the fear. But after doing it, it wasn’t scary at all. You got this!!
Can you come by my house and give me a hand. A guy wants 850 quote to remove and install door. I like your work, pizza cookies and a beverage 😊
wood trim looks really weird. gray or white would be so much bette.
If you really want to increase energy efficiency get rid of the doggy door!
what kind of opinion is that
What an odd use of security screws...that HAD to be an upsell, I bet.
I thought so too!
Super woman
Ehh, not a fan of the wood trim. Makes it just look unfinished
Ehh who cares about your opinion 😢
@@carlosbrunoandstichfam3086 apparently it matters to you lmao there is always one.
P
@@carlosbrunoandstichfam3086he’s right though
Great video, but I’m gonna be the grammar Nazi here. It’s pronounced COCK, the L is silent. Lol
what word was she pronouncing incorrectly?
@@frankclements1431 caulk. The L is silent in that word.
