- I replace a steel door inside a warehouse, The owners bought it at Homedepot. and I just ripped the old door out and replaced it with new. I used a fast drying cement and was done in a few hours. All my videos are my ways and ideas, I always suggest anyone doing any type of work to consult professional help. www.amazon.com...
As a HM door provider, at the beginning i saw so many things wrong with this install. how ever, this turned out incredibly nice and i will take some of the things this videos has taught me and apply it to our work. Thank you and great video!
Thanks, I appreciate hearing that from a pro, mike
Mike, I really appreciate your time and effort in making these videos. Thank you sir.
I also laughed out loud at the statement, "Just to keep the critters from getting out and terrorizing the neighborhood" 🙂
Thanks Jay, Mike
That seemed so crude and turned out so awesome! Concrete and masonry is an art. Every time I watch a pro I want to get in and work it all perfect from the start and then work it three more times extra pretty, but you can't do that or else you weaken it. Crazy stuff.
thanks brian, I appreciate it. mike
Great video, please note the "spreaders" at the bottom of the frame are for shipping purposes only not for keeping the frame true during installation. To keep the bottom of the frame plumb and square you should cut a piece of wood like a 2 X 8 to the right size to keep it plumb and square.
Hi Raymond, I appreciate that, I seen so many doors go in wrong I keep checking checking and checking, opening and closing , opening and closing as I build and never had a callback, thanks mike
Hi Mike, I’ve been in the commercial side of construction, specifically doors for over 20 years now. I’ve had calls from customers, who haven’t taken as much care as you have, saying their door won’t close and one of the first questions we ask is; did you remove the spreader bars before setting the frame? Keep up the videos! I’m going to check out some more of yours. Thank you again! Ray
Mike, it is so satisfying to watch professional at his craft. I am not a mason by any stretch but about 25 years ago I called around to local mason contractors to get quotes to install a steel door like the one you did in this video. The wooden door in the 50 year old garage had deteriorated and I chose to replace it with a steel one. I could not get one contractor to quote me. They were all too busy to be bothered with this small job. I said to myself screw them. So I found a place that sold the type of door in your video and with no prior experience did exactly as you did by removing the half blocks in order to key the frame into the wall. Being an amateur, I ended up completely filling the holes I made with concrete. The other thing I had to do was correct the lintel as whoever layed the block installed the lintel flat with the 7 5/8" dimension laying flat instead of upright. I sawed out the existing block and installed two lintels the correct way. The door has held up all these years with no problems. One thing I did before installing it was to spray tar on the inside of the frame per the manufacturer's recommendations. I love your videos and your down-to-earth modest approach to doing things. Wish I had neighbors like you.
Thanks, I appreciate the kind words and am glad when everything works out, Mike
This is the video I've been searching for for several weeks in order to install a steel door in my dads cinderblock garage. THANK YOU!
Thanks Ms Mac, mike
Fantastic job Mike, even 5 years later! When you started smashing out the block work, I was going to ask why you don't just use concrete screws to fix it to the block, but now I see that you made such a better job of it.
Thanks Michael, mike
It's great watching a professional. I'm learning about doors but I always to go beyond.
Thanks Ken, mile
thanks for the video, Its great to see how a professional does repairs.
I appreciate it, I am just passing along what others taught me, thanks mike
I’ve never seen anyone bust out blocks to install a door frame! Jesus they make anchors for this.
Hi William, anchors are fine in a lot os circumstances, but for the burglars it's a easy rip out, thanks mike
Excellent video. Its a pleasure seeing a professional work and turn out a great project.
Thanks, Mike
I must say Mike, you are a Master Mason!!
+GunsHarleysUSA maybe in my own mind, lol but really just passing along what I learned from the old timers, thanks mike
mechinical mike the master mason .
Mike, you are a badass! I love seeing quick n dirty jobs like this, it's a lot less threatening for me to give this a shot. Thank you!
Thank Plaz, I am sure you can do it, thanks mike
Great job. Wish you had installed my metal exterior door. Keep on keeping on. You are great at your trade.
Thanks Flash, Mike
Great job...enjoyed watching the video of someone who really knows what they are doing.
Hi Joyce, sometimes I get lucky, lol, thanks mike
Not the install I needed, but you did a real nice and quick job. Good to watch a pro!
Thanks Russ, Mike
Just what I needed to know, thanks so much. A fine job with a full explanation, you're the man!
Thanks Mike, Mike
Breaking down the STEEL DOOR! Sounds like your NEXT Action PACKED Movie Mike! Great work Master Mason Mike!
+Jaime Visions In Stone thanks, Jamie yer the best. mike
Mike YOU RULE BROTHER , thanks man , tomorrow im gonna show up knowing what the hell im doing
you sure make it look easy!
Thanks Cyrus, Mike
Make sure you fill that nice and solid for the next guy that's going to replace that door. 😂
Thanks Future, no need to worry for a while, thanks Mike
Great video you did a good job installing the frame. It helped you are a mason. You could have ordered the frame with punch and dimple preps. That way you use cmu lag bolts to anchor from each side. You normally use three on each side. That way you do not have to take apart the wall.
Thanks David, Mike
fantastic video to the point NO BS Your a great guy thanks for the info
Thanks Russ, mike
awesome video, no bs just the real deal
Thanks Matt, Mike
Really appreciate you sharing, Mike. Nice work, instruction and camera placement.
Thanks James, mike
Great video, nice to watch a pro. The comment you added later were helpful. I am going to replace a similar door and wanted to know how the frame might be attached. I’m going to just replace the rusty door since the frame looks good and it might be more than I want to get into. Thanks!
The downvotes were from competitors who wanted the job;)
Thanks Davy, I hope it works out, thanks , mike
Well done Mike, I always wondered how to replace a door that was installed when the walls went up....
+Sparkylights thanks, I wanted to do another door like this because the first one I did not film well. mike
Thanks mike i have to install one in my building now.
Thanks lowman, I hope it all works out for you, thanks Mike
@@MikeHaduck im i licensed builder and i been flipping houses for 25 years and im 42. I have bought and sold over 400 houses. My uncle taught me everything. He was a tool and die maker at ford motor company. You and him are identical twins i swear. You and him sound exactly alike and tell the exact same jokes lol. I watch all your videos. You are the best. I tell other contractors what you say all the time "it's more than one way to do a job" and your right. God bless you.
Thanks lowman, there are some mighty kind words, I appreciate that, a flip some houses myself, And know what you have to go through, and again I appreciate it God bless also, Thanks Mike
Excellent instruction
Thanks Patrick, mike
That job could have been much tougher if the jambs had been poured solid. Sometimes you get lucky on old buildings from back when they didn't have a code to go by. Great job Mike!
Thanks mikey, mike
Great Job 😉👍🏽🪚🔨📐
Thanks Bigmo,,, Mike
Fantastic job Mike
Thank jo, I appreciate it, mike
I have just a detailed video of the installation of a floor hinge fireproof steel door. thank for watching!!!!!
Thanks, mike
Hey there! for future recommendations , the bottom door separators are for shipping/transportation purposes only, it maintains its structure so the both jambs dont mis align or close up while moving or while being put into pressure or an external force on it. Your door would have fitted better and easier if u took that welded separator out at first and then mount.
I appreciate the comment, and I am sure you are right, It did work for me doing it that way, God bless, Thanks mike
Esteban Andrade The tack welded joiners are actually a big help during an install so your frame doesn't twist or shift especially on a door that is not prehung. So, from my experience doing installs he did very well for only being a mason!
thanks, your video is still teaching.
thanks Thomas, I appreciate it. mike
First of all, excellent video .
Please don't take this the wrong way, and this is just an observation on my part with no malicious intent, but if they wanted the steel door for some type of fortified security, wouldn't the hinges on the outside be easily compromise by knocking the pins out and then getting inside that way?
Hi Guitar Gangsta, by law the door got to swing out, and the pins are rivited in so you need a saw to cut them out. just the way they make them, I hope it helps thanks mike
professional,, thanks for the video I have the same exact door I'm putting them right now
Thanks Armani, I hope it works out, thanks mike
Wow, a few hours! Nice work Mike. Vid quality looks better too. Funny how if I went to HD over here, no way they would have steel doors like that in stock.
+RJ S that door came from homedepot a supply store, and I was surprised the heave them there, there are a lot of different makes and some of the prices are crazy, anyway it too me over 3 hours to download hd but I had the time, thanks mike
Great video and nice channel boss. Thanks for the content.
Thanks Eric, Mike
Great job!!!
Thanks Carlos, Mike
"Door things' are masonry anchors for the metal frame.
Hi Albert, I ain't had dat der skoolin like I should have, we waz a poor family, but I am workin on my leanen lessons, cauze I wanna be someone wit a hi-er sofisistcation, lol, thanks mike
Very helpful! I'm trying to decide which door I'm getting and there aren't any videos showing how to put a steel door with pins, which by the seer weight of it it should be a must.
Thanks, mike
Mike, love your style.
Thanks Keith, mike
Ripped that door out like a bad ass
Thanks, Mike
fast, right and without all the bullshit most perfectionists give.
Thanks DJ, Mike
Pretty slick! I am looking differently at masons from now
thanks, I am happy if it helps, mike
thanks for the video, I have a similar situation on my garage door. This answer all my questions
thanks Rolly, mike
Good job my. Thank for sharing it.
Thanks Juan, Mike

Another great job Mike, a true professional, thanks for posting
+Simon G lots of ways to do it. but I appreciate it. thanks mike

New subscribers to your channel
Thanks, mike
Why didn't you order your door Frame/Jamb Dimpled and use 3/8" Anchors.. ?
Hi Gregory, In this case the owners bought the door, they wanted something that was it going to pull out easy, so you got to do what you Gotta do, thanks for the comment, Mike
Nice but you should never have the hinges on the outside. Someone can pop the pins and take the door right off
Hi Malo, that's the way they are made, code says door got to swing to outside, thanks Mike
Interesting. Thanks for clarifying, Mike. There's cameras everywhere these days anyway. Right?! I really enjoy all of your videos, man. I've got a colored concrete block chimney from '69 that's deteriorating here in RI. It needs to be rebuilt...especially from the roofline up, but really the whole thing but who can afford that now??? I'm getting quotes but it seems there isn't a decent, reasonable mason to be had anymore. If you're ever considering coming to RI, let me know. We can bang this job out quick! Haha. Get in and get out! No big deal! Take care of yourself.
Is there anything you can't do? I can't wait for your video on "Everything you know about women" LOL
I got a book out, but the pages are empty, lol, thanks mike
Nicely done, I been wanting to install one in the basement for sometime...I haven't done so because it is a fieldstone wall, and not to wide at that...and I do not want to start, and not be able to finish, because of some problem that I might encounter...I too am a legend of my own mind...lol...But I might just take this on, and shoot the dice to see it done...Any help will be most welcome,,, Again thks for the video...JRC
+joirjoja1 thanks, check out the video " Stone foundation repair (inside) part 1, mike haduck, It might give you some more ideas, thanks mike
Inspired tp go fix two "plywood" basement doors, said I need a steel door, deadbolt vs padlocks.....any techniques on getting just the block you are hitting to break ? It looked easy and when I smack that block, it usually breaks where I don't want it to..even if I score it first...
Hi Dan, it’s just one of those things where you got to take your time, stucco hides everything, I don’t have anything special to tell you, I hope it helps mike
Thanks for the HD!
+Brendon Willis It takes 3 hours to download it but I had the time, thanks mike
No sand? You usually do 1 to 2. Do you not have to add for this?
Hi Salty, the new premixes have the sand added, just add water, for jobs like these it is very convenient, thanks mike
Oh my gosh, Mike. The termites really messed up that old steel door. . . . . And all this time, I thought that was the way you broke out of 2nd grade! ;o))
+GSMSfromFV yer right, thanks mike
how come didnt show the finished work of the blocks being smashed and fixed? when you were smashing the blocks im like thats pretty extreme.
Hi Danny, I can't remember, maybe part 3, thanks mike
if you had the treated wood in the rough opening would you use the knock down frames?
and if you had an existing 7 foot door that was 32wide in and you needed a 36 wide door could you use a 6/8 door and a 4x treated header with 2x jack stds either side secured to the block in place of installing a new lentil after cutting the new rough out opening on the block? Hang a knock down frame on the wood? it's an interior door.
dang... how would i do that ?
I can not answer that because every situation is different, lots of different ways to put a door in, I would ask some locals first, thanks mike
Nice
Thanks Herman, Mike
I have to replace a metal threshold on my porch door, the floor is concrete and it came loose and won't allow the door to shut.
I tried fixing it with drilling and anchor bolts but the concrete didn't hold. I think I'm going to break out the broken concrete
and refill with the same mix you used and then drill and anchor it. Dose that sound ok to you Mike ?
+Joseph M I am not there to see it but it sounds like you have nothing to lose, I wish you well, thanks mike
The door came out great. If the door to be removed had been cemented in like you did with the replacement, what would have been your first steps of demo to break it free?
+Dwight Bennett yep, same thing with the sledge hammer but if your working with brick or stucco you might have to saw it out with concrete saw, everything depends. thanks mike
Trust me. It's a mother f-er after it's concreted in. Lots of work. Going through it right now. And good luck if your concerned about dust. I suggest lots of plastic and a big fan to push the dust back out through the rough opening. Good luck. Oh and wear safety glasses and a mask. Be prepared to spend around $36 for a good circular saw blade. Also don't forget to remove smoke alarms in the area.
Hey Mike, could you use a knock down 3 piece frame on a door and frame that needs replaced in a block wall like that, but with an interior drywall ? (Its an old subway building.)Or does it have to be welded already?
Hi Candice, I can't say, every situation is different, whatever works, thanks mike
Hi Mike, quite informative video thank! was wondering what would be appropriate thickness for this kind of frame installation?
Hi, I guess i would say anything that works, as long as it works, thanks mike
Is it standard that the hinges be on the outside >? Is that not less secure ?
Hi Kaveman, that's the way they are made. most doors by code swing to the outside, thanks Mike
for security... are hinges suppose be inside?.
Hi Briggs, I know the door has to swing to the outside, so that would a manufacturers question, thanks, muke
what do you do if the wall around the door is poured solidddd then how would you replace a metal door
Hi Jeremy, they make doors that bolt into the concrete, check with the door companies, thanks Mike
How do you do this when it's red bricks instead of cinder blocks? Thanks.
Hi Michael, you got to usually saw it out, but the inside should still be block, thanks Mike
Good video thanks.
Thanks Jose, mike
thank you
thanks, mike
Punch and dimple the frame is much easier process. I can tell your not a door guy. Nice masonry work though.
Hi Chris, your right I don’t do doors everyday, just part the masonry business, thanks mike
You look like you have escaped a few places 😂
Hi Jim, I had to change my name, Mike
Nice job on the door Mike. You want to come up to Vancoiuver BC to fix the doors at our self storage? Cheers.
thanks, I appreciate it. a lttle too cold up there now, lol, mike
Tapcons done
Thanks Richard, Mike
I have a door like this that goes from my garage into the basement.I want to replace the existing door with a new wider one. Any advise? Do you want to come to NJ?
Hi Kathleen, I am overwhelmed whit what I got, everything depends on how it was constructed, I would ask some locals, thanks, mike
Do you have any recommendations for purchasing the exact door you installed? We are looking to buy 2 for a cinderblock garage. 36". I've researched and they are somewhat expensive at around $800 to $1000 each...thanks in advance
Hi Ms, I know they ordered it from homedepot, with the pushbar that sounds about right, mike
Mike Haduck Have yourself a happy Thanksgiving and a Bottle of pottsville spring water
+Donald Baus right back at you, thanks I appreciate it. Mike
How much more difficult is it to remove metal ext. door frame that has been grouted all around? Any suggestions for demolition?
HI Alex, some just saw it out, lots of different ways to do it, everything depends on the door, I can't say unless I was there, thanks mike
Alex Favacho They are all different. Some are a breeze, others a nightmare. When the frame is filled with masonry, I use a harbor freight 7" grinder with a masonry blade. It cuts the steel and cement just fine. Respirator, earplugs and faceshield are highly recommend. When the door is built in place, the anchors are usually at roughly the same elevations as the hinges, three per side. I locate and defeat the anchors, cut through each side near the top, then wedge and pry the frame pieces out. If they are dimpled, I cut through the top of each jamb with a sawzall, then cut about a foot off the bottom of each jamb. I then slice out a section of jamb from bottom to top with a harbor freight power shear. The frame is usually caulked in with serious caulking, so this makes it easier. You pry the sections out and you can get at the anchor bolts very easily. Cut them, and it's game over for that frame. I've been using harbor freight tools on door frames for a couple of years now because of the harsh environments. They've held up fine so far and if they crap out tomorrow, they don't owe me a cent. Hope this was helpful!
Wow.
Thanks, Mike
Hey Mike, where do you buy these commercial metal doors in Eastern Pa?
Hi, they got this from home depot
you didnt show how the inside looks where you smashed the blocks or didnt show the top how you filled it when it was finished
+666bella66680 sorry, I will remember next time, thanks mike
we've replaced a lot of these style exterior doors Mike. i'd suggest to any architects that view this to protect the door from rain on the weather side.
most all the old ones rot/rust out long before they wear out.
it's just like the lower courses of brick that get wet and degrade.
maybe this?

Hi Pensive69, I will leave the link on, it is a good idea, thanks mike
Hello Mike, I have a job very close to this video and was wondering a estimated price on this type of job ?
the owners bought the door and all the materials at home depot, because they are steady customers, I just charged them for a days work. everyone does it different, thanks mike
thanks mike.
The landlord won't bear the full cost of replacing my back door. He wants me to pay him $850 towards putting in a new one. Thanks to your video I can just do it myself for the cost of materials.
I have to do same job how much I can ask for it?
Hi Alex, that was one of those customers I did work for for years, they bought the materials and it was just a day job, so I got a days pay, if I bid it ,it would have been different, thanks Mike
6:50 i learn so much from you forgot to wet the saddle
+allmotorhash maybe, no matter got it to work, thanks mike
i just mixed 25 bags of concrete by hand you sir have my respect you make it look easy thanks for the videos
+allmotorhash thank you, mike
+allmotorhash thank you, mike
The last part is not clear how he did it...
Check out part 4 , thanks Mike
how long to install a new single leaf metal door & frame ?
Hi Paul, everything depends on the situation , and how much work is involved, could take hours or a couple days, everything depends, thanks Mike
@@MikeHaduck Oh ok, but normally how many hours will it take to install new single leaf door say 900 x 2100mm metal door(just an estimate)
I would of took the whole half of block out when I tubed it out
Hi Chad, whatever works, thanks Mike
Why do you need doors? Just leave it open and they WILL COME. Border Patrol know this concept.
Thanks mike
How much $$ you charge to install the door?
They supplied the materials, I just charged them a days pay, they are steady customers, thanks, mike
PRO. How much do you charge?
Hi Randy, I am basically retired and only working for friends and family, thanks Mike
@@MikeHaduck Let me rephrase. How much should it cost? How much time did you spend on the job?
@@ubroc I forget maybe a day and a half they got all the materials
Wow that's a lot of time. Very nice work though. Thanks that's what I need to know.
If you have a door frame where the bottom of the jamb is rotted out on the strike side can you use a grinder to cut out 12" to 18" of the inside of the jamb on the strike side and patch in a new piece without having to replace the whole door and frame?
Thanks in advance
anybody know how to get in touch with this guy
Hi Ciara, I am not taking on any more work this year but I appreciate it, mike
