    Hi keel
    Well impressed by your door hanging methods, I've been working 44yrs on the tools ,old frames can be torture some newer ones not much better
    The leading edge not used much these days but is necessary when the frame is twisted i always sand the door edges to remove the planer ripples the rotex makes quick work of them. The Stanley lifter is great in conjunction with the air bags, it's better than the viking arm as it can be foot operated them fire doors aren't much fun to be handling in and out of bad frames a few times 😢
    Not sure about the use of the drywall screws sheer strength and all that jazz! Subscribed and looking forward to the understairs video.

    Perfect timing on this vid. I am looking to fit around 14 new doors to old frames soon (also a 100 year old house - but through in Edin) . Also looking to get into Milwaukee tools as an upgrade. A latch video would be great, and also any tips for jigs etc to make life easier when doing lots of doors at the same time? Great channel - keep at it!

      Be carful with Milwaukee tools they are like Pringle’s once you pop you don’t stop before you know it you’ll need a lock up to store them,
      I’ll certainly do a video on latch’s in the future I do have a few videos on shorts doing the latch but more in debt video coming soon 😎

    When I was renovating my last house someone had put down 18mm plywood on the upstairs floor. The boards were nailed with 6 inch wire nails, I had a great time taking them out to replace the floor. 😂

      The house was a disaster, it was renovated and extended by the local council scheme in the 1980s. I had to (as a diyer) undo most of their work as it was so bad. Had it rewired, and I replumbed everything my self, replaced most stud walls (were not straight and sitting on a damp floor) replaced all door frames, doors, all second fix woodwork. I insulated all walls then skimmed everywhere. I had to use firrings to level the upstairs floors as there was 70 mm difference from to back of house as front wall had dropped. Stripping it all out was the best idea as there was nothing original left. The good thing was I sold for a fortune at Xmas 2022, got enough profit to pay off mortgage and buy my current dump with no mortgage. 😂

      Unless I’m mistaken, it’s the material and thread type that make screws suitable/unsuitable for an application (in this case wood). The zinc screws I assume you’re referring to will have the same coarse helical thread that the dry wall screws have. The only benefit you might get from the zinc wood screw is that they’re usually countersunk so will sit flush for flooring installation, but in terms of fastening capability, either will suffice 👍🏼

    • @keelsjoineryconstructionltd
      @keelsjoineryconstructionltd  6 днів тому +1

      @ so there’s not that much difference in the grand scheme of things 😂 the dry wall screws still sit below plywood slightly if you adjust the depth on the gun so would be fine for flooring in top 😁
