While our awesome 1970′s door was still in good shape and energy efficient in its day, its now leaking air at the corners and we want to replace it with a door that lets more light in.
The house has shifted in 30 years making the new install not as straight forward as we would have liked. This is really not a how to video I am not sure if we should have flashed under the door, the book I have didn’t say to however I have seen a few things that make me think we should have, we were having camera problems and were under time constraints to get the door in before dark, but you should get the general idea.
We had the help of our good friend Gonzo, his excellent carpentry skills and level headed approach made him the voice of reason.
