You are a great teacher! You speak so clearly too! I normally have to repeat the instructions 27 times! lol. Thank you.

[@BuildItMakeIt]

Wow, thank you! Glad to be helpful.

[@handymanglenn8443]

Great video thanks for explaining how you did the reveals and how you packed out the gaps around the edge

[@BuildItMakeIt]

I just chose reveals that looked good to my eye. It was mostly 1/4" or 1/2" depending on which I thought looked better.

[@scantando]

Fantastic guide thanks!

[@BuildItMakeIt]

Glad it was helpful!

[@khaliyanna]

cant I just hire him to do this 😅

[@jasonpmack]

I saw that you used those orange shims for the 1/8" gaps between the framing and the door. Is this what you then used to set the depth of your hinges?

[@markdeponzi663]

thanks so much really was helpful

[@BuildItMakeIt]

You're welcome!

[@dimanoma416]

Great vid, i can finally replace my front door 🤝

[@BuildItMakeIt]

I have been wanting to do my house front door as well. If you do tackle it send me a photo of it, I would love to see how it turns out.

Where is the link for the orange spacers? Thanks

[@brandons1679]

I liked the part where he magically grew a beard

[@BuildItMakeIt]

Thanks! I’ve been working on that spell for a while now. Almost have it down :)

[@ryanyoung6437]

What size screws/pattern did you use to attach the jam to the wall? Thanks for this, going to try to hang a pair of super heavy antique French doors. 🤞

[@BuildItMakeIt]

I did seven wood screws on each side and five up top. They are hidden under the stop.

[@torih.6612]

This might be a dumb question, but what did you use as your hardware on the top inner part of your doors? The things that "hold" the door closed?

[@BuildItMakeIt]

I used little ball catches at the top. amzn.to/46UpV1Q

[@torih.6612]

@@BuildItMakeIt thank you!!

[@user-pz2tu8qs6o]

😢

[@BuildItMakeIt]

Why so sad?

[@anthonygirdler606]

Are you trying to say rebate? or rabbit? rabid maybe?

[@BuildItMakeIt]

Was supposed to be rabbet. Sometimes my t and d sound pretty similar.
