Very nice. I had a metal building put up for my trapping shed and tool catch all! I have to run electric and water to it after I get foam insulation blown in!! I will be throwing a video out on it soon!!
Had to watch your video with a start like that! 👍 Love when people are not afraid to spread Our Lords word. Great job to boot. May God bless you and all that watch your video.
This was purchased from a local YBC (Your Building Center), but it can be bought at a Lowe’s or Home Depot. It’s 24 inches wide by 50 foot long. Thanks for watching!
Looks like you have used your break a time or two good work I have had my break 20 years now it's not as pretty as yours lol but still gets job done how much you paying for trim coil now
@@LiveMoreOutdoors Bottom of my garage door aluminum frame is getting breaking a part due to snow salt/chemicals and need to repair that part. Initially I was thinking of clean it up and cover it with plastic/pvc material, but I think aluminum sheet would be better. Here is short video I took. czcams.com/channels/k6e1X_7WUymjRBtOnSBX7Q.html
great video, very informative. one question tho... should you have used something like the zip tape or zip flashing over the exposed frame of the garage before installing the aluminum? what is to prevent water from getting in? Im faced with repairing all around one of my garage doors because of water rot. The original installer did it just like you did, then finished with vinyl siding. Thanks.
Using some type of flashing tape is a great idea especially in areas that get pounded with rain. These doors were on the East side which don't get a lot of rain in our area. Moreover, I install my J channel so that the water runs from the horizontal to the vertical sides. Can som e rain get in? Sure. But it's minimal in my opinion in this situation. You can also bend an extra inch of aluminum onto the wall on the side on the jams as well as the top. A little difficult to bend but does a good job. Thanks so much for watching!
@tomcooke9221 Great question. We did that on our big DIY project (whole beach house renovation/restoration). Tape flashing is also good if by any chance pressure treated lumber is used for rough framing. Capping aluminum over modern day pressure treated wood, can cause electrolysis and alter/dull the finish of the capping. Old pressure treated is fine (well kinda) capping over, since it was treated with arsenic (not fine). Today’s PT wood is treated with copper, and I believe zinc. The copper content can actually alter the capping finish (dull it)… again, via electrolysis. I’m not 100% positive on it, but believe the tape is enough to stop the contact and electrolysis. Just thought I’d point that out.
I know it was w while ago, but did you have to put that seam in the middle of the double wide cap piece? Could you have done one solid piece along the top?
Never done aluminum trim, but I’m gonna have to. How come you didn’t leave a little overhang lip on the top that would go behind the siding??? Whoever built my house did the trim the same as you and I had water that got behind the trim and rotted the plywood and header.
That pressure treated wood will rot aluminum from the inside it will take years ...but us pros stoped using aluminum flashing on decks that's why you see the plastic ledger strips now ... pressure treated wood is very corrosive
Capping over modern pressure treated wood, can be a problem because of electrolysis. Older PT wood had arsenic and it wasn’t a problem capping over it. When I was first told about aluminum over PT wood, I thought it was bogus. It wasn’t until I learned that new PT wood is treated with copper, that I was a believer. As soon as I learned that tidbit the problem was obvious. Aluminum and copper don’t play well, just ask any electrician. 😬 I believe flashing tape is enough of a barrier to eliminate the electrolysis problem, but it’s an added, yet worthwhile cost.
Well done. You showed just the right amount of detail especially on the trickier parts. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks!
Great video and tips. You do great work brother. Good luck on upcoming season.
Thanks! You too!
That gap fix was a great idea - thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful work. It’s going to look awesome when it’s finished. Stay blessed.
Thanks! Just finished siding it over the weekend.
Probably the best cap video out
Thanks!
You do some great work & prices are crazy for any building materials!!
Thanks! I sure hope lumber prices come down some.
Beautiful work.
Thank you very much!
Outstanding Job Proud of ya.
Thanks Bull.

Thank you sir! I hope you have a blessed day.
Nice work. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks for watching
Looks good brother. I can’t believe the way prices went up. Crazy
Thanks. I don't think they'll ever come back to where they were.
Nice job, I know what you mean about lumber crazy how high it is. God bless and looking forward to the next one. Al
Thanks 👍. Some prices are coming down, but I doubt they will come back to what they were. Thanks for watching!
I always put a return against the sheeting, gives you something to fasten to and drip cap. Plus you can tape if you want.
Yes sir. You’re right about that.
Looking nice Marathon!
Thanks!
Very helpful video; thanks 🙏🏻

Thanks!
👍
Thanks!
I just bought a handbrake, paid $54 for it. Everything it through the roof.
You got a good deal!
Think big !!! Persenonaly I do top first but !!! Nice Craphmanship
Thanks for watching!
Awesome Like and Subscribed. Would you please let me know where you purchase aluminum coil (Good trick for unroll) To Thanks? What size was it????

Thanks! It's actually my brother's brake. I'm fortunate to be able to borrow tools from him. I think the coil was @ $90-100. Thanks for watching!
Hello, Love your video. Have a quick question though. How would you replace the garage door frame once the entire house is build? Any suggestions?
Thanks so much for watching. Hard to answer without seeing it. It really depends on what you’re starting with. A picture would help a lot.

Just thought I’d point that out.
I know it was w while ago, but did you have to put that seam in the middle of the double wide cap piece? Could you have done one solid piece along the top?
The brake I used maxed out at 8'6". I needed almost 9'6" to cove the header piece.
Never done aluminum trim, but I’m gonna have to.
How come you didn’t leave a little overhang lip on the top that would go behind the siding???
Whoever built my house did the trim the same as you and I had water that got behind the trim and rotted the plywood and header.
I put a z flashing cap over the top. If you bend it right on the top capping piece(s), the bends have to be very accurate. Thanks for watching!
How thick aluminum you use?
Probably about 20-25 thousandths of an inch. It’s standard 24”x50’ white trim coil.
Where did you purchase your aluminum.
From Lezzer Lumber. They have several locations in PA
That pressure treated wood will rot aluminum from the inside it will take years ...but us pros stoped using aluminum flashing on decks that's why you see the plastic ledger strips now ... pressure treated wood is very corrosive
Thanks for the info. Hopefully if it happens, I’ll only have to replace the bottom few inches.
Is there any way to have one full piece for the top?
Yes. If the brake is long enough. I needed @ 9' 6" and the max I could bend was 8' 6". Longer brakes exist. Thanks for watching.
@@LiveMoreOutdoors we have a picky customer and they are complaining about it,,, never had a complaint about this ,,, ever!
That's too bad. Some people are impossible to please.
Who could I call to do something like this for my garage?
If you were local to me, I could make a specific suggestion; otherwise, you should search general contractors who specialize in home building.
Treated wood and aluminum ?
Might not be the best, but I’ll keep fingers crossed 🤞.
Capping over modern pressure treated wood, can be a problem because of electrolysis. Older PT wood had arsenic and it wasn’t a problem capping over it.
