  • Door chat:

    When it gets a bit warmer I'm going to sort this door out. I'd like to replace the single panes with double glazing. Obviously there isn't enough depth now for even a slim sealed unit - but is there any reason why I can't route out an extra 5-6mm on the external side of the door to fit a deeper unit?

    Question 2 is what do people do about a door whilst they sort this? Do I just board up and use my back door for a few days? Can't see me getting it all finished in one including stripping/painting..

  • You should just be able to plane down the rails or whatever the name is for the parts which you have to remove to get the old glass out.

  • I don’t think there is enough rail to take the amount I need: glass to back of the rail is currently ~14mm and then thinnest sealed units I’ve seen without getting silly ££s are 10-12mm.
