Installed! Whew!

Still have to paint trim, install screen doors.

Took just a tiny shim on one side to level left to right. Concrete floor
was perfectly flat. Built-in locks lined up perfectly, as did the deadbolt.

looks great.
Now, if any wacko doper shows up at your door, you'll have plenty of time to
plan their speedy withdrawal.

Pssst, spoofer, I took mechanical engineering courses, there is no such
thing as "perfectly flat". Especially a concrete floor.

The 60" opening could have been made wider when the house was built. I
could have hired a good carpenter to make it wider during this latest
project, but the expense would have been substantial. Such a project is
way beyond my rudimentary carpentry skills.

The sliders were a problem, since the widest opening they would allow
was less than 30". But now, with these double opening doors, I can pull
both open at the same time.

Guess who sits on that little footstool... meow!

I went over last week to order 6 more replacement vinyl windows. They quoted

They are cheap as in the lower end of the price scale. You can tell by
the window frames. Cheap plastic that in just a short while will yellow
nicely.

Well, you're right about pricing. But there are ways to save money and
get something better than "more expensive." A pricier set of doors I
looked at were fiberglass on the outside over an oak core. The oak
showed on the inside. I saved a few hundred by buying fiberglass outside
and inside, over a pine core. The fiberglass has a "permanent" finish,
but can be painted if you want. The window panels are the same, and the
frame on the inside that holds them in is wood, finished in the same
color as the fiberglass. Not having to paint doors is a plus to me.
I'll try to get the trim painted in the next few days, but we want to go
out fishing on Sunday. One of our favorite spots in the Bay is producing
pretty good results.

she wanted the track an inch lower. I ended up taking my brand new
track to the table saw, Ripped off the whole bottom of it and just
installed the actual runner strip. Then I had to make the doors an
inch and a half taller to match the hole.
Fortunately we have a lot of red oak I put in and I had some wood to
work with. It really came out pretty well but it was scary for a
while. When her door guys came over to install the Windoor corner
sliders (I was not going to tackle that one) they looked at the
Anderson and were really confused until I told them what we did.



Well, you are well beyond my home carpentry ability and bravery!

Installed! Whew!

Still have to paint trim, install screen doors.

Took just a tiny shim on one side to level left to right. Concrete
floor was perfectly flat. Built-in locks lined up perfectly, as did
the deadbolt.


Interesting... looks like they could have been wider? Or was there some
structural issue?




The 60" opening could have been made wider when the house was built. I
could have hired a good carpenter to make it wider during this latest
project, but the expense would have been substantial. Such a project
is way beyond my rudimentary carpentry skills.

The sliders were a problem, since the widest opening they would allow
was less than 30". But now, with these double opening doors, I can
pull both open at the same time.

Guess who sits on that little footstool... meow!

You couldn't afford a union laborer to spend three weeks on that for you?


This is priceless... Harry went to Home Depot and bought the special of
the day, and picked up some illegal, non-union hack in front of the
store to put it in for 50 bucks. Looks like he paid too much too;) He
did not install that door, you can bet on that? How do I know, well,
because he said he did and you all know what that means;)



Little man tosk gets his household supplies and furnishings at the local
landfill.

Now, if any wacko doper shows up at your door, you'll have plenty of time
to plan their speedy withdrawal.

You guys must be members of the "internet badass club".

Two of the little ****s who post here have threatened to show up at my
door to "teach me a lesson," or some such nonsense.

I've told both of them that if either shows up and attempts to break in
and gets one foot across the threshold, my assumption will be they are
committing a home invasion, and they'll be leaving in a body bag.

Is there a bag limit on short guys with long greasy hair?

How narcissistic of you! What a tiny yard, too.


No I do not, while most of my property is left natural, I have over 25,000
sq. ft of lawn. I ended up buying a used tractor from an
Amish man who helped rebuild my barn.

When did I say I didn't have children? Why would I advertise that

fact that you are a proven liar.

Hey, thanks. It was pretty scary for me... Getting the old door out was
much more difficult, involving j mold and a pneumatic cut-off saw and my
fear factor.


Hey, spoofer, tell us more about that alleged "perfectly level"
concrete....

When I built a new cape Cod style house back in 1975/76 I installed 5'
wide sliding doors.
It was plenty wide to pass through.... but some of the fat assed dopers
might struggle a bit.


I try my best not to discuss Fat Asses, and I wish you wouldn't, it just
gets the dopers into a feeding frenzy talking about the photo I took at
del Coronado


Spoofer alert! That photo I took just showed my hand. It was swollen
from water weight gain. It was that time of the month.
