I wached your video several times before attempting to install the Larson door myself for the first time. Your techniques are MUCH easier than what Larson shows you in their picture instructions and I just need to see someone actually do it. Your idea of putting all the screws in to attached the hinges was GENIUS! Thank you for taking the time to show us your skills and techniques

Side note.. When lining up the hinge side, make sure that it is pllumb/level so the door swings out level. I installed a deck a 1/2 inch down from entry and door would only open up half way before scrubbing. The guy who installed the door 2 years ago was drunk and it is off a fe degrees ha The door worked fine when there was a step down.

I installed mine about 6 months ago in the threshold allows water in. I'm surprised they didn't tell us the caulk it but I figured it is cuz they wanted it to go in and drain. Apparently it doesn't drain and it's seeping up into the door and starting to show signs of damage. Any suggestions? Is yours holding up okay? I guess I'm just going to have to caulk the poop out of it.

How do you know the door is flush with the other side? I'd hate to drill all those holes and then find out I'm a quarter inch away from the other side. Also, I know this is a rental, but could you have adjusted the door to get rid of the crack on the top at the finish? Is there code on handle placement? Thanks. Excellent video.
@HomeRepairHub
Жыл бұрын
I am not exactly sure what you mean by your first question. Are you replacing a door or installing a new one? So I tried to adjust the door, but the best option would have been to install new trim and build it out more to fill in the gaps. I opted not to because it was a rental. You want you door handle between 34 and 48 inches.

Replacing my storm door. Fit perfectly. You really helped me figure this out. Was pretty easy. Great idea by Larson to put the screws in the jamb with that slot so one person can drop the hinge into them, then tighten it up. Only thing would be to show how you put the glass back in. One of the panes was a half an inch smaller and has to go in the right slot. Thanks again.

The weight of the door varies by model. They can be anywhere from 60lbs and up. I found that the challenging part of installing the door was the awkwardness (height and width of the door) of trying to carry it, not the weight.

@@TheShadowman68 so there isn't really a specific spot it has to be located. Usually top or bottom. But it depends on the door. There are some guidlines when it comes to how close to the edge of the door, or how close to a window. But there isn't a specific location it has to be installed. I usually try to take the tension off when installing and then adjust it once it is in place. If the manufacturer has specific location then follow that, otherwise just work around where the windows or screens would be.

This had to one of the worst installiations of a storm door i ever have watched. I don't think the guy even read the directions. Also a storm is to keep the elements out, but notice the air gap at the top of the door. Also it would make things easier to start by installing the top raim cap first and not guess as to what the gap should be. O well it's you video, good luck!
