How to install windows in a Cargo Trailer

[@clydeholiday5907]

Your videos better than the other ones I saw

[@chawnyray]

I can't believe you cut that so smooth 1-handed while filming, total BOSS!! Thanks for the info

[@TerraFirmaX]

and then didn't bother to remove the stickers

[@jjonesdabeast]

Thanks for this video, thought this was a lot more complicated than it was and haven’t seen anybody explain on KZbin

[@JFAM077]

Good job dude straight to the point in n out

[@mariefray7014]

[@garykozanecki5882]

Thanks for the info.

[@baileya82]

Your videos are awesome. I can't wait for the others.

[@f48films33]

Thank you👍

[@AlexandriaPerel]

You have just answered so many questions for me!! I need to see your ceiling fan and insulation install!! Also how did you insulate the floor? A lot on cargo van converters are doing the floor I just don’t know what they are doing.

[@f48films33]

Alexandria Perel Glad the video helped. Check the insulation video. I think it will give you a lot of info. The ceiling and floor video is this spring. Things went on hold a bit with winter. Hope the videos help and more to come in the near future👍

[@debbieisbell6034]

You make it look so easy!

[@f48films33]

👍 thanks for watching.

[@dodgeramsport01]

Because it is

[@jonathanbrazeau970]

hi, thanks for sharing, really helpful, I'm curious, does the ring screw into the actual window frame to clamp it tight? if so, I don't see any holes in the frame that you're screwing into? Do you just force the screws into the frame or did you pre-drill some pilot holes? What thickness of wall are these made for?

[@f48films33]

Yes, and there are screw holes.👍. Sorry for the late reply

[@jonathanbrazeau970]

@@f48films33 cool thanks

[@davejohnson9823]

I like it

[@motoman3290]

Best window video yet but just one question was that a normal jig saw blade or an extra long one ? Thanks

[@f48films33]

Thanks, glad you liked the video. I did use a bit longer blade for the cutout.

[@skcyclist]

Nice!

[@brianbvm39]

can you please send.a link to this window you bought on amazon

[@FollowTheWay247]

Trace around the outside or inside?

[@davidschlarp1606]

There are 3 potential things to outline in the trim ring. Idk why people just say "trace it out and cut" and never actually show what to trace. I'm someone has tra ed the outside and cut a home to big in their trailer going off of these videos

[@ositolee5870]

It looks like the weep holes are on the top, should be on the bottom right?

[@f48films33]

No the weep holes are on the bottom. You put plugs in the top. This way you can pick how you want the slide. Weep holes are both top and bottom. The windows come with the plugs👍 Yes the unplugged weep holes go on the bottom

[@ositolee5870]

Thanks, and awesome video

[@NativeAmericant]

The window thickness was 2” exactly or was it 2-3/16”? Awesome video, thanks.

[@f48films33]

I believe it was 2-3/16”. I would have to pull the window out to be 100. I do think it was the 2-3/16

[@artest7]

sorry but what did u say u sprayed the existing plywood walls with? (minute 2:17)

[@f48films33]

It’s called kills primer. Home Depot has it in the paint section. It maybe spelled kilz

[@sdfoster7]

I got the 12x22 window from the same company. I am unclear what the screws screw into to tighten the two parts together. Mine did not have any directions.

[@superdavedfw]

Me too. I'm unclear. I got my window from "Factory RV". Same concept with a window ring. I'm assuming you're screwing around the outer part of the window (not into it) and with the rough opening of the rv window opening compressing or wedging it in place for a tight fit.

[@superdavedfw]

I told you wrong. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gH7VZnqBf8mhmac This video at 9:00 shows pre-drilling the holes into a groove around the window Yep. I'm sitting here watching KZbin with an rv window in my lap

[@f48films33]

Check out the comment section might answer your question. Sorry for the late reply.👍

[@guspena5403]

What size window was it bud? And the wall thickness?

[@f48films33]

Glass 12” x 14”, Trim 17-1/4” x 15-1/8”, wall 2”. Hope that helps. Thanks for taking the time to comment👍

[@jimwelch1957]

Is the plywood and outer skin holding the weight of the window? Is the window attached to a vertical stud? Did you weld in any horizontal supports? Lastly , is there some flexibility in the window frame, in terms of the thickness related to the wall thickness? Great video. Thank you.

[@f48films33]

The plywood and outer skin is holding the weight of the window. Very snug and solid. No supports or welding needed and not connected to a vertical stud. The windows are very light as well. There is a bit of flexibility on thickness although the skin, insulation and plywood is close to max thickness for the windows.

[@davidehret9708]

Do you have any recommendations on changing one rear swinging door to two rear doors like yours?

[@f48films33]

I would maximize the single Door and keep it. Is it like a ramp door? If so all good just insulate and maximize its use. Not worth changing it in my opinion.

[@nancy143ish]

Pardon me if I missed it but I'm looking for a link to see the company you bought these windows from and the price. I thought I was going to have to pay some one to install them but thanks to your great video I'm going to try it myself. Thank you for sharing your know how!!

[@f48films33]

Go to www.teardroptrailerparts.com. Find the ones you like and search amazon for best price. Glad the video was helpful👍

[@williamdouglas6711]

Hi, how did you know about the thickness of the window? 2 3/16. or 1 1/4 ? thanks

[@milirajonesMercy]

What size window?

[@orlandoflores6037]

I’m planning on converting a trailer to a camper, so I’m trying to find answers to questions that I know I’ll have later. Does the thickness of the wall affect the installation of this particular window?

[@f48films33]

I believe there is a couple different sizes you can get. You will need to figure your wall thickness as it does matter.

[@orlandoflores6037]

Got it! Thanks!

[@woodrowcollette5982]

Did you use a Metal or Wood Jig-Saw Blade to cut your window opening? Thanks in advance for your reply.

[@f48films33]

I used a Bosch wood scroll 12 teeth per inch.

[@fisher5413]

What dimension are the windows?

[@adamavis]

Where is your second exit?

[@rockymountainroughridersofMT.]

How do I tell if I need the 1 1/2" or 2" thick window ?

[@f48films33]

Once you remove the inside panel I would measure the ribs, outside skin and inside paneling this should give you a accurate measurement as to what size. If I were to guess you would be after the 2” most of the time. Hope this helps out.

[@rockymountainroughridersofMT.]

@@f48films33 Excellent, much appreciated kind sir :-)

[@probuiltshop]

What size window is that?

[@f48films33]

17-1/4” x 15-1/4” outside to outside of flange. The glass is 14” x 12”. The cutout is 15-1/2”x 13-1/2”

[@wesley20991]

Isn’t the window upside down so the drain holes should be on bottom

[@f48films33]

There are drain holes with rubber plugs both top and bottom. You can set the window in so it opens how you like. Once you do this you remove the rubber plugs on the bottom. If they didn’t do this the windows would open opposite of each other.
