How To Install A Exterior Door

[@isolateddieselperformance3261]

Saved a bunch of money on labor by watching this video 5 times last night. New door is in thanks to your instructions. Also followed your video on wiring and accomplished that task to. Thanks a million! SUBSCRIBED!

[@symcardnel1741]

Great video... thank you!! Shouldn't the house wrap turn into the door jamb before the door is installed and shouldn't we have some sort of Z flashing of the top of the horizontal brick mold, that goes under the wrap material? How come we didn't go w/ a LH swing here?

I watched so many other youtube videos, but this one I learned the most .

Good job . New construction door go pretty smooth . I watched a guy take 2 days trying to hang a door , all I could do is shake my head 🤣 3rd day I offered to help him and i had his door hung in 15 min . All he could do was shake his head 🤣

I got the 9 panel half lite for my front. That full lite wouldn't go with my storm door. I'll get my neighbor to help with the heavy lifting. I know I'm going to run into a lot of termite eaten wood so that will have to be fixed first.

What length fastener for each stage of install? Including brick moulding

[@matthewkmacdonald]

Super helpful and direct to the point! Thank you!!

[@brianhund8177]

ohhhh yeah, He's got the Ridgid driver.. Much better than the DeWalt... In my opinion. Anyway, excellent video. I recently built my own garage and am now at the point to making sure I install the door exactilly the correct way. Just one question though, an 1/8" gap all around is really what I am trying to shoot for, right? I still need to frame in the rough opening for the door which is why the question. Thanks!!

[@mariosalazar9263]

New construction, is it best to install all doors before installing laminate flooring ?

[@qwertyuiop-ke7fs]

I was wondering if there should be flashing around the door rough opening like around a window

[@TheExcellentLaborer]

If not covered it’s a good idea!

Is there a video showing replacing a storm door with an exterior door with vinyl siding on the exterior?

[@malikto1]

Do you ever use sill pans?

[@TheExcellentLaborer]

I make a sill pan using flashing tape!

Thanks Eric! Appreciate you stopping by and check out the video!

[@betocastaneda29]

hello good day, thanks for your videos but I have a big question; Can the door be put on without removing the plastics that it has in the holes of the hinges? first nail on the outside frame and then remove cut the plastics with a multi tool, do you understand what I mean?

[@symcardnel1741]

Why add extra 'work'?

[@selwynvey5544]

Nice work as usual.

[@marcoservin1334]

Where can I find a door like the one you put on?

Thank you for the knowledge!

You’re welcome John . Thanks for watching!

[@Midman1972]

No mention of siting the door contact with the strike-side weatherstripping. This is a crucial point, and you can’t assume it’s even from threshold to head jamb.

[@Albert-the-Astro]

Awesome video, thx.

[@TheExcellentLaborer]

Sure. Anytime!

[@framnerdan]

Thanks Josh. Yeah the rough opening is so important! Great video. I’m not a merch guy sooo maybe wrong guy to ask. I’m Dutch you know! Ha ha

5 different guys would install a door 5 different ways butttttt I would've flashed that door opening before installing the door. That house wrap could've been taped as well.
