Replacing a damaged door threshold.

Door threshold repair. I'm trying to take care of some things around the shop. This threshold has been an issue for a while. Still more repair work to do to the door frame/trim.

[@gbalijepalli]

I watch ur job very carefully .the way ur projection is touched my heart. No one like you showed ever in such a detailed manner before. Thanks again for ur time. God bless you.

[@scotth388]

This was great, best threashold video I have seen. Appreciate it.

[@deborahcooper5613]

Need to replace a threshold , with cement slab foundation. This video was perfect!! Thank you!!

[@davidstabnow2055]

Great job of going into detail for us learn by watching how it’s done folks. Excellent video. Will be looking for more of your videos when I have other projects.

[@nathanscott2331]

Thanks for posting. I had to install this exact model of threshold today, and I was concerned about the install, but thanks to your video, it went in great.

[@johnjustin8944]

I liked how you give some wisdom as you teach to avoid problems when one is doing this project or others. Thanks.

[@prodigirl1]

Your videos are great you do a great explanation in detail of how you’re doing this. As a woman I’ve never done any of these types of things before but I’m very interested and would like to learn how so step-by-step and great close-up video helped me quite a bit.

[@avacahill321]

So many videos that don’t go into detail but yours made me feel like I just took a class on it. Thank you for schooling me. Time to fix my threshold now

[@jodaddysworkshop786]

I do this with just about all my videos. Thanks for the comment.

[@arclight31415]

You have a great technique going for you. No detail was overlooked. Very clear and thorough. Bought the threshold. . . .watched your video one more time, and installed it perfectly without a single error or "do-it-over". Well done. Thanks.

[@nick99bottomley]

Excellent video, thanks for your thoughtful concise directions. I consider myself to be pretty handy but having never installed a door threshold/sill before I was pretty confused about how it all worked. You cleared that up! Cheers.

[@kevingordon669]

Thanks man, talk about a good deal, now I spent 25mins watching a video that'll save me hours and probably going back and buying another one. Thanks again!

[@johnkristoff2341]

A nice obaervation -You have a remarkable resemblance to Tom Hanks.

[@jodaddysworkshop786]

Thanks. I get that a lot.

[@RandomKlown]

Great video, very thorough! Thanks for taking the time to put it together for us!

[@jeremy_sales]

thank you so much for posting this! I have been putting off replacing my threshold because I was concerned I'd mess something up. After I watched your video, I knew I could do it! Sure enough, it was as easy as you made it look. I can't thank you enough for your help!

[@KpxUrz5745]

I am watching every video I can find about installing a threshold seal. So far have not found one that will solve the problems I face. A huge plus in your case demonstrated here is that you start with a flat concrete floor.

[@brucegraham4142]

Great, great details. Every minute of the video was justified to help me do the exact same task ("correctly"), that is on my to do list. Well done!

[@jdoyle4811]

Excellent step by step instructions are very clear and concise, Jo Daddy....keep up the good work, sir. I ran into a situation of a 40 year or older recessed home made cellar door with a rotted out wood threshold held in place on the inside by mortar on cement lip. The MD aluminum threshold with rubber insert was a much better solution than another wood threshold. The cement was all eroded on each side so I placed boards inside and outside into cement as forms and raised the height a minimum of one inch (on ends 2 inches) and poured ready set cement. In two hours I had new level, attractive start for the threshold installation. Water had continuous leaked into this client's home over the years and this project was part of rehabbing the door, installing french drains, add exterior recessed cement pad with two steps and adding adjoining dry well of 3/4" crushed stone. Client was on budget so I made the best of the situation and of course no more water problems.

[@keithtaylor1531]

Exactly what I needed for adjustable height threshold for work shop update. Your calm and clear voice with detailed instructions is much appreciated. New subscriber and look forward to future DIY vids. Have a blessed day. Thank you for your service sir

[@jodaddysworkshop786]

I appreciate the comment. I will try to continue the trend.

[@jamesstarks3226]

Very timely post. Have an external door that needed both a new jamb as well as a threshold. Your information is very useful and instructions simple and easily followed. Great job..

[@robertgray9915]

This was very helpful for a beginner dyi person. Your tips were great! Thank you!

[@gradysmith2819]

Very informative.... I recently attempted to repair a threshold in one of our renthouses a few days ago. Wish I had found your video before that effort. story of my life...day late & a dollar short. Thanks again. I won't make the same mistake next time.

[@flashgordon6238]

Very helpful video, thanks! Good tip on using the Craftsman screwdriver shanks as quarter inch feeler gauges.

[@azuced]

Nice job. I got a piece of wood in mine (between the Garage and basement) got to watch more to figure it out. Thanks again!

[@haroldsingh7713]

Great job with your details SIr.. DIY’s will love your videos. Blessings

[@10223220]

This is exactly what is happening to my garage door thanks for the video 👍

[@stacyc762]

Great video!! Thanks so much for all of the details. I need those.

[@dwink6339]

Great video...and a great attitude. Your not overbearing with information.

[@juanfraire3233]

pretty simple explanation very helpful especially having concrete like yourself thanks bud.

[@integrity5264]

Great video, thanks for your help. Like the accordion music also.

[@user-is4or6ky4s]

This is just what I want it! Thank you!

[@miguelguerrero1027]

Good details, good job, loved comment about Lowes supporting Veterans of America!

[@dborg56]

Just bought a threshold from Home Depot and was happy to find this video. I wasn't sure which side went inside and I see you had the same dilemma but figure out the illustration. I do not have a sweep at the bottom of my door but two channels that I am sure I can install one. Thanks for this.

[@tuberstitious]

I installed a threshold like your original on my garage that had a 4 or 5 inch drop to the walk outside. I then built a box frame of wood and with sacrete poured up under the aluminum and forming a small step at entry. That was 10 yrs ago and It is rock solid still.

[@tonyperkis9561]

Very helpful! I have a side garage door with no threshold and decent gap from door to concrete. Wouldn’t be much of an issue but the sidewalk connected to door water just rolls down into the garage. So this looks like exactly what I need.

[@VeganLinked]

Great job and thank you so much because I really need to do this. I was thinking about replacing the entire door and frame but I'm just going to do this and now I'm very confident about it watching your video :-)

[@zacksgaragedoorserviceandr1208]

I’m not gonna lie you actually did a really hell of a good job explaining on where everything needs to go and how to install it good job and keep up the good work

[@jodaddysworkshop786]

Thanks. That's the goal.

[@kellydanford9980]

Thank you. We had exact same issue with garage door and concrete garage have not started. Will come back to your video when we do ours

[@ratchriat1716]

simple and effective installation enjoyed the video

[@ladywoodelf]

Super helpful walk through. Thanks for this.

[@jimncolleen1967]

Thanks for the helpful video, nicely done.

[@georgemonk3823]

I have exactly the same problem. Thanks for the help.

[@frankfrank5821]

Thanks for posting this your helping others do it themselves and saving us money in heating and cooling also 🍻 friend 👍🏻

[@howardsilver8396]

Thats for the detailed explanations. To many DIY videos assume to much, and over look details that novices do not know.

[@user-gi3xj8nz3s]

Great 👍 detailed video. Exactly what I need to do.

[@peacock821]

Very nicely illustrated.

[@stevehill1875]

Thanks for the help. I did not think about the holes on the base needing to align with the holes on channel. Needless to say, after trimming both to the proper length the holes did not match up. Luckily they were not too off. The center two holes aligned but the outside holes didn't. Just had to drilled the channel holes out a little. Not pretty but the seal covers them up.

[@853sky]

Thank you for this video. I’ll do this tomorrow

[@tomasmolina8617]

I will replace mine tomorrow sunday. thank you. good explanation.

[@rollandjoeseph]

Thx for explaining..those things always confused me so I avoided then..not anymore

[@A10TOES]

This video appeared & I clicked because of the title. Tell you what its April, it's Spring, the birds sound wonderful after a long cold Winter (Indiana) any how, my garage door bottom rubber has totally rotted away, if you look at the door from my deck Oh yeah you can see daylight probably 1.5-2" believe it or not I have had the same Threshold out in the garage for almost 2 yrs. I got fruastrated with the directions & not understanding HOW to install it I gave up. I will be following along when the weather here warms up so I can install it, of course I'll have to rent a tool or buy the bit to drill into my cement floor, you don't know how much this will help me & I sure appreciate your video. Thank you, thank you! PS: its the small things that turn out to be big issues for me

[@jodaddysworkshop786]

Great! I'm happy to hear the video helped. I don't know why they make directions so confusing.

[@Goomer]

This was a great help. I have the same situation (concrete) my door measures 1 3/4 so I guess I need to find something to go under the threshold. (And fix all the rotted wood, it's a mess).

[@wanttruth3876]

Thank you. I'd bought one and had it just sitting in the laundry. You've shown me what to do and how to do it. Again, thank you.

[@prodigirl1]

Do love the bird sounds 😊

[@drochon6672]

Fabulous video.

[@WalleyeCliff]

I found it pretty cool hearing the mockingbird ? in the background .. good instructional video !! :)

[@jodaddysworkshop786]

I hired him to do that... :)

[@leumas1965]

You should do a video on painting your door

[@jodaddysworkshop786]

But then I'd have to remove all my stickers... lol

[@frankoo2]

Waiting for more.Thanks

[@ggcarter7638]

Perfect. I will go do my threshold repair. Thanks

[@elsdp-4560]

THANK YOU...for sharing.

[@michelleford9951]

you made that really easy thank you

[@awells2000]

Thank you Jo Daddy for this video. I need to replace both my front & back doors' thresholds (the back are French doors). Hiring a contractor is too expensive so I want to do it myself. Thanks for making it look so easy. P.S.: your neighbor birds just wanted to be part of the show! :) You are so funny!

[@rudolphmccomb2184]

Great job, very informative

Thanks So much. I’m going to try it next week

[@Greghc48]

Great instruction. Thanks!

[@cassiecornett4665]

Very helpful just wish i had all these tools

[@gripittight]

Great detailed video. I need to replace the threshold to the exterior door and you've made it much easier to something that seemed difficult at first. The only issue I may have is uneven slab around that area. Nevertheless, thanks, Jo.

[@jodaddysworkshop786]

The good thing is you can adjust the height of the inner piece to compensate.

[@tommypeters447]

@@jodaddysworkshop786 what is the model of the md threshold that you used?

[@TheCodesterr]

Nice video thanks! Trying to come up with the best solution to seal my door that goes to the attic. There’s no threshold in place, but I don’t want to drill in the floor either.

[@jonathangaspard8044]

Great video!

Great Video!!!!!!!

Very helpful! Thank you!

very nicely done

[@12996707]

Great video

[@JSLEnterprises]

no inserts required for concrete, just use 1-3/4" long 3/16ths tapcons, for extra prevention of any water penetration, add a bead of window and door sealer along the back edge if the aluminum of where you screw down (the inside side of where your screws go in) and around the screw hole. Also, dont forget to seal the sides from the front edge of the door itself back to the inside.

[@LmQUAM]

THANK YOU GREAT VIDEO.

[@evacastillo42]

Thank you so much.

[@patmoore7868]

Thank you very much!

[@Carlosandrecardoso]

thanks for video. It is time to replace the door as well :)

[@jodaddysworkshop786]

I have to keep it. Too much history...

[@xplanetastrox8209]

Thank you.

[@hcliii]

Looks just like the problem I am having with my garage door - overhang and all. My wooden threshold is rotted and gone. Thanks.

[@WanderingNature]

Great Job:-)

[@TC-firstclasscloser]

Both Loews and HD support vets. I have a plastic and metal door jam that need replacing, thanks.

[@shaunmilton7529]

A square tool will help with marking straight cuts. Measuring from each end would be to assume and rely on your supplier to get their cut the other end perfectly square. Sometimes they get it wrong and it can help make mistakes.

[@12996707]

Thank you

[@lmartin3601]

Great, Thank you.

[@CharlesWilson-zs3vd]

Good video Thanks

[@chadlawrence5865]

Nice job with the video and PPE. vr CWO4, USN

[@staffordsanpei7804]

very good detail. But you should have put some caulking between the threshold and concrete.

[@nennguyen7557]

good job

[@cfspamer]

Would be nice to see the bottom of the door, to see if the seal on the bottom also needs replacing.

[@mpikas]

I think most people would want to put some kind of sealant or construction adhesive under that.

[@n01celticfan18]

TOP REPLACEMENT CLOSES THAT GAP.

[@pinoysiaki]

Thanks.

[@SURFERRRR2]

Hi im 2:20 into the video you can add concrete to the top of that slab just don't use rock sand and cement. Just saying it will aslo make it look new. Now back to your video i have a threshold to replace lol

[@dgpuig45]

I must be a little OCD, now you need to do some sanding and priming then sand again and paint.

[@wadewheelingtonii7690]

Thanks, I appreciate this video.I have 6 thresholds I'm going to do this to. Keep it coming, also what do you have on doing bottom window seals and ledges?

[@jodaddysworkshop786]

Sorry, I do not.

[@franciscobartolome7711]

Your video is certainly informative and entertaining! Very good work! Do you think caulking the inside bottom of the aluminum threshold will help to keep water and dirt away?

[@jodaddysworkshop786]

That is a good idea. I should have done that.

[@allanmanley6340]

I would add a weather strip (sill) to the door to drain the water away from the bottom of the door......

[@haines96]

What about the undercut gap at the jambs? Looks like water and bugs coul get in there, and too wide to caulk...
