- Step by step how to wrap a PANEL door using sticky back plastic / Fablon - whichever you want to call it 😂
This is the fourth door in the house that i've now wrapped in D-C-Fix, so definitely have some practice behind me.
The rolls I bought were £10 a roll, and I needed ONE roll per each side of the doors.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to drop a comment below.
Just a tip from a vehicle wrap installer. They make wrap gloves that will make it way easier. Also post heat the areas when done.
You can get a heat gun at Harbor Freight for like 20.00 that will heat it up better.
Vinyl wrap has a memory effect and by post heating it to the recommended temperature it will make the vinyl lose its memory meaning it won't pop back up.
This is so so helpful, thankyou!! ❤️
P.s. the hairdryer took FOREVER, I'm definitely investing in a heat gun 🤣
@@EllyandNelly check out a guy on CZcams called CK Wraps. He does tutorials and you can learn a few things that will help ya. And if you need custom stuff printed there is a site called www.weprintwraps.com
You can send your design to them and have it printed on quality vinyl.
Question, when I use the heatgun, would that be a bad effect to my original door? I am about to do this trick on my rented apartment.
NICE JOB!!! This was really helpful.
You make it look so easy, and it looks gorgeous....will give something small a go. Brilliant video. x
Wow.. This is absolutely genius!!! Exactly what I needed.
Thank you for sharing.
What a beautiful creation!!!
Thanks for the video. I really appreciate the close up video that shows the minor imperfections.
Sweet... I really love it especially with the grove and patterns. Thanks for the video

Well done girls
Good job Girl
Stunning work hat a transformation What shade of dc fix is this xxx
Nice
Where can I buy the rolls? Love your project, and I would love to do this
Thank you so much for this video. I can barely find any how to videos for panel house doors. Which dc fix vinyl did you use? I know its not been long but how is it holding up?
It's holding up ok! We don't have a busy house though, the kids are young (so no door slamming😂), and no dogs that could scratch it or anything - I got mine from B&Q, £10 a side, for door-size 🌼
Our doors are an awful white. They were when we bought the house and I've just never done anything with them. I have to do this now! I work with vinyl daily in my business (I make custom tumblers) but I never thought to try something like this! Thanks!
Nice.. Can we do w/o removing from hinges? Please make a video
This is a great video thanks! I'm thinking of wrapping my bathroom door, do you think the moisture would make it peel/bubble?
How do you make the join if doing both sides of the door? Overlap and heat or try to line up?
How long did it take to wrap that door?
how long did they last before it started popping out please?
Wow, thanks so much. Can I ask how long does the vinyl last on the cabinets
Still going just as strong!
Could I do this to a door with glass panes
Looks great but very helpful if you give me more information about specific material name. Thanks
Is it rental friendly/removable?
Hello. I've just had one unsuccessful attempt! When I came to do the bevelled panels the material split. I didn't have hairdryer on highest setting so that may have been a problem. Wondering whether to do the bevelled panels as I lay the material down rather than after the material has been laid flat over whole area. What do you think? The panels have curved corners and the bevelked areas are quite deep.
I believe that's why the heat is very important, to soften the vinyl and allow it to stretch. But pre doing the bevels should also work fine but the tight seated and fine look may not be the same though.
can you tell me where to get this wrap and how much it cost?
I've started doing my doors but struggling to get the air bubbles out of indentations. Do you poke holes in the middle of the panels as well as the indents? And did you also try wrapping the door rims/frames?
Yes, as many holes as needed, you cannot see them at all once it sets down. I poked what felt like hundreds of holes into the inset parts of the door, and then if there are also any bubbles that occur whilst sticking it down on the flat areas, you can also use a pin. My biggest piece of advice would be to try and press the air out and NOT rub, as rubbing stretches and warps the plastic, and can't also create wrinkles! Good luck!
Yes, I did do the edges, I found that overlapping from both sides was the best way to do that, the piece was wide enough to fold over from each side. Sealed down with heat, and then a sharp knife straight down the edge (I used to DC Fix applicator)
This is great. Thank you going to carry on with it tonight!
Where do tou buy the adhesive? The ones I find are too small for the door size
That's the same question I have!
Please where can I get this type of sticker
Did the contact paper poped out from the groovy part after awhile??
Still intact now! Hasn't budged 🙈
Where did you buy these large fablon rolls pls?
B&Q 🌼💞
If wrapping both sides, how best to join the wraps on the sides?
Was thinking the same thing. So far only seen vids where only 1 side is done I wouldn't have a one sided door.
What you use the material tell the name,and where where we use it
I used Sticky Back plastic, from B&Q, £10 per roll. You can use it on all sorts, and comes in a couple of different sizes! Flat surfaces tend to be easier to start off with, and you are always able to peel it back and retry a couple of times, to practice.
I noticed a good number of bubbles once you finished and panned over the door with the camera, what can be done to ensure this doesn't happen? I did a door exactly the same panels with the same film and while it was perfect on day one after taking time to really stick it all down in the recesses, day 2 saw a few areas unstuck and day three even more.
The more pin holes, the more time spent rubbing and holding down the adhesive and the more heat applied, the stickier and more pliable the adhesive will become. Mine has come up slightly on the doors, however it actually aids to hide those bubbles even more, so they in fact look better. You are more than welcome to find me on Instagram (Ellynellysisters) and drop me a message, and I can send you some current up-to-date photos of these doors 😇
The material will left as temperature changes, it’s because the vinyl has a memory, you need to post heat it with a heat gun to change the memory in the vinyl
@@paulmclaughlin3693 in what way? I ran over my entire door afterwards with heat. Only for most recessed areas to be completely lifted....
@@UpholdersoflightMinistry with a heat gun but each vinyl has a specific temperature where it will lose its memory, I wrap cars and some of the materials I use have to be above 83 degrees to lose its memory. I also wrap kitchens and avoid doors like this as they have a high failure rate.
Essentially the more you have to stretch the film the more tension that is in it and so the more likely it is to pop out again, hope that makes some sense?
@@UpholdersoflightMinistry might not have been getting hot enough. Did they pop out when you heated it or afterwards?
Panal sticker lagri wale bed ko ni lagta kia is ki vedios dekaho
Compared to what I had seen before, this was better. One guy was so shockingly awful at it he couldn't be bothered with the job.
Couldn't u bring the camera a little closer ? How can we see what u did with the pin ? Then why the writing in yellow? Cant read it 😡
How can i order this DC fix .
You don't need to make the holes with the pin - I advise decreasing the door then apply the vinyl to have the max amount of stick.
What do you mean by “decreasing the door?” Thx!
How on earth do you decrease a door!
'Degrease' I expect
sorry but with wood grain pattern the rails,ledgers and rails should be laid out like a wooden door is joined,just saying for the next door :)
Hi! Sorry, I'm not quite sure what you mean? I tried to Google what you meant by ledgers and rails, this door isn't a sliding door, if that's what you meant? 🙈
Are you referring to “within the grooves” the wood grain should go a different direction such as it does on a real wood, raw unpainted, door?
this looks horrible
You actually put a video on here, showing people that you wrapped your door and there are BUBBLES in the recesses? I mean come on! Horrible job. If you have a bubble when you start, it will continue to expand over time. Do it RIGHT next time.
You seem angry 😂
Shut up.
