  • In this video I am building a new canopy over the front French doors, then I remove the old tired French doors and replace with new graphite grey ones. The has completely changed the look of the house. #joinery #frenchdoors

    Beautiful job as always and once you painted the arch in white it made the door pop 👍

    Canopy perfect👍 French doors Looks good but not practical for me, to get in you need open 2 doors🤷‍♂️ and after another one door🤣

    Nice little job that I wouldn't use the plastic membrane as a underlay but I suppose as it's all out in the open it wouldn't be a issue 👍

    Nice job but I would have at least primed the backs of all the timbers to help stop them rotting from behind where they abut the brickwork.

    Hi Chris. Did you need to toe and heel the glass or were the doors narrow enough that that wouldn’t be necessary for this one? Great job

    DPC is not breathable it will cause the timber to sweat and rot. Sorry Chris just a observation.

      @foundationgood123  Před rokem

      I think on such a small job and with it being open plan it will be ok, I wouldn't however use it on a larger enclosed roof its better to use the breathable understaters membrane as we do on extensions etc.

    Hi Chris. Nice interesting upload. I love the narration too. When the line in the brickwork was cut out, it looked wonky - was this a visual thing because of the brick archwork? I couldn't work it out. Thanks in advance 🙂

    • @foundationgood123
      @foundationgood123  Před rokem +2

      Not entirely sure what you mean, the arch will make it look strange but also when grinding the grove you can’t always get it pertly strait, but when its leaded in and filled with mortar or in my job lead mate, then it fills in and looks straight

    • @utilitarian
      @utilitarian Před rokem

      @@foundationgood123 that's exactly what I thought it was. I'd figured grinding it might have caused it but like you said, once finished it's not visible. Not a criticism, just wondered. 🙂

    Since the door has a curved brick line, why didn't you make a curved canopy?
