Drops vital part of door mechanism. "Put that down there for a sec".
Good save mate
You guys are a great team. You work in sync so well. That is a nice cavity slider/ pocket door kit. Thanks for sharing Scott.
“Its been a while since i done cavity sliders”
*Door works and looks lovely*
Love the vids mate, they’re somewhat relaxing to watch
Agreed it should be therapy
he just gets everything so spot on, it cures any stress
It makes me want to be a carpenter! Little to late in life, but I want to.
Good on you for the effort you not only put in to do the job well, but also make an entertaining and informative video.
4 seconds in and already hitting like. Your videos and work are awesome.
Thank you so much for all the explanations and you make it so entertaining, what a plus!!! I'm trying to learn as much as possible to accelerate my apprenticeship.
Thank you for addressing the straight edge. !! Excellent channel.
Looks good, Paerau did a really nice job on the attic stairs too, zero flex in them!
Love it ... first step to assembly of the door disassemble the door
The level of detail you go to do deliver quality is well just quality.
I never knew there were soft close systems for cavity sliders, im going to get one when i rennovate my bathroom later this year. Keep up the excellent work.
Mint. That’s almost exactly how I do my cavity sliders too. Love the little trick using the top
Of the jamb as a spacer on the way down though. definitely trying that next time
(Drops screw) “put it down there for a sec” 😁
I must admit, I've never seen a soft close pocket door. Cool stuff mate.
I literally jumped up to check the cavity slider door in my place has those little wood buttons. Cheers bro.
Great video great tradesmen look forward to every episode here in uk
Hey Scott!, big fan of your channel! I've been following for about 3 years now. Today's an awesome day because I just found out I passed my 2nd term of my Carpentry and I am officially a 3rd year apprentice!! your videos have always been great and are always getting better! All the best to ya and lots of love from Calgary, Alberta Canada! Cheers! #smokotime
So hows qualified life?
Enjoyable video with relaxing music😎
ha!!great tip with the using the top jamb bit as ya off set for the slider!! been installing these for years n never thought of that 🙃😅
The Quality of your work is amazing, a pleasure to watch.
I see you discovered the double sided Milwaukee bits, so awesome for renos and assembly!
SBC has come full circle (for me)! As a new homeowner 2+ years (3?) ago I stumbled upon your video on your first ceiling hatch stairs as I was looking for some tip for solving mine... which wasn’t what I needed whatsoever! But I remember thinking the video was awesome still. Got recommended by UA-cam about your video on tips for deck building (another issue I was investigating at the time) and subscribed ever since. You had like 10k subs back then I even think! Your videos demystified carpentry, it’s tools, basics and techniques which has been amazingly helpful as a DYI-er. Thanks for the amazing 2+ years, much appreciated despite the NZ code being so different from Canada’s. I’d Patreon if we weren’t expecting twins. Cheers!
Cheers man, I'm glad I could help out! And congrats to you and your partner!
Awesome video,
Something you may or may not know is the slot at the end of the track (jamb end) is wider so you can install the pocket without the door and wheels/ also maintenance.
Sometimes it has to be done this way due to needing the pockets before gib as there is a hold up on the doors.
Thought I would share
Keep up the vids SBC
Just today I've re-hung a pocket door whose track was seriously tweaked.
Your hardware looks much nicer than the typical Johnson or Lawrence hardware here in the US.
If only the new before me had bothered to use a laser or even just a straightedge!
I did my apprenticeship as a Fitter turner in a Aluminum extrusion plant. Normally window and door shops don't use standard box section profiles but they may have something that could serve as a straightedge. Box section or RHS is the best to use. The amount that came of the press wrong and had to be scrapped was crazy. Luckily they had their own foundry so the could remelt it and cast new billets.
Great pocket door kit. I've never seen the soft close feature on one. Very cool.
CS for Doors are far and away the best Cavs in NZ. Just did 2 of them, one was a stunning aluminum one they powder coated. I saw some of their other technology recently and it blew me away. Not the cheapest though!
Another exciting episode
Ingenious idea,soft close sliders. Great and informative video as usual Scott.👍👍👍
Such soothing videos 🌹
three months ago I also installed such a door, I had to get sweat , Thank you👍
Love the show Scott 🤣
Sweet as, I'm about to go install one now, thought I'd have a bit of a refresh ! 😂
Nice. Wish we had such high quality pocket doors here in the US. I like the horizontal blocking. Keeps it much more stable so the drywall doesn't flex.
You can buy the same product in the US.
Hey UA-cam, recommend Scotty’s channel to everyone. Thanks!
Finally, someone who installs the attic stairs correctly! Every single one I've ever had to climb up had the bottom step not fully extended!
I just put in my 910mm CS Door in with double Softstop, open and close. Mine came with a little red tube to set the position of the softstop activator that you slid into the channel. When you close the door it closes just shy of the jam and doesn't hit it. I think you need to back of the actuator a smidge. Cheers.
Great video as usual, aluminium rectangle tube x 3 metres from bunnings...
Loving the Blundstones yes you can get them in th UK, best boots ever
And in the USA
Tôi thích bộ dụng cụ mà anh đeo quá. Trông thật chuyên nghiệp.
I am astonished that a term 'cavity slider' caught on. Sounds filthy.
I was installing doors years ago and reached underneath to lift the jamb when something grabbed my fingers. As I jumped back and watched, here come two cat’s paws from under the door. Played with her for 10-15 minutes. Became good friends during the job and I’m allergic to cats. Sofia Marie Freeze was her name.
I used to work as a phone tech, had so many cats try and come home with me by climbing into my tool bag! always the best part of the job.
6PM
Pussy is often a perk of the job
Great vid.
USEFUL VIDEO thanks
sweet haircut dude!
Nice hair cut too Scott!
I learned something after my 4th cavity slider on a job once... You know the first attempt at the "soft close" that just clicks? It's supposed to happen. Ya put the little alloy bit right in the middle frst, . Then let it click to prime it. THEN the soft close works 😁
Thanks mate
Now I can buy one and install it myself, thanks Scott from an ex- nelsonian!
Great job!
Good on you guys
Hi scott ,cavity slider insulation,with the bottom plate of framing in position draw a line on to floor from on side to the other this gives the set mark for bottom track for cavity slider.
#building dreams
We get bluntstones in Canada! Everyone loves them, they looks to Aussie for me.
Cant be too Aussie.
finally get the answer of what boots those are!
Good job
The battens that hide the mechanism at the top of our pocket sliders are much deeper than yours and the genius who installed them not only screwed them in, correctly, but put diagonal nails at the bottom corners.
Dude your cavity sliders are so much better than the trash I'm being supplied in Aus... For example they expect us to fix the entire frame to the ground using a small block of mdf that is pinned to the bottom of the frame.. when asked what they expect us to do in a wet area they admitted "I don't think we thought about that"... yeaaaaaaa.
Thanks Scott, this video helped heaps to put the door in - you didn't happen to do a video on how to install the door handle - locking mechanism?
We have OX Tools here in the UK since about 2012.
My boss loves to put these in every house we build. 🤨
Weather it’s an office/study door or an en-suite.
I wouldn’t mind but he buys the best priced pocket door on offer at the time.
Every type... Henderson, eclipse, etc is different. So I can’t finish the timber stud until the pocket hole arrives on site.
Life of a carpenter in Britain. Eh? Brilliant 🤦🏼♂️
Legend has it, Paerau is still up in the roof
Nice boots
Nice
We are literally talking about this at work today on how to install them
It's always a headscratcher..
We call these cavity sliders pocket doors in the northern woodlands of the U.S.A. State of Minnesota, city of Minneapolis.
Try popping the top piece of timber off when it has a architrave glued and nailed and painted to it.
Awesome episode guys! Hair cut looks good Scott! Cavity sliders are awkward to put in.... but you did an awesome job
Well done Guys!! What’s the brand of the boots again?? I wanna see if I can find them here in Australia
Blundstone. Originated in Tassie.
Yes, but can he hang a door?
G, day Scott Brown Carpenrty from Sydney, Australia.
The cavity sliding door and attic ladder are a fantastic space-saving invention for any home.
* will you install a timber board walkway in the roof space for safety? 200mm or plywood.
🌏🇭🇲
Best door ever for small areas. Saves on door opening space. Be careful to use very short screws on the gyproc as nothing worse than screw slide marks on the door !!!##@!
The previous owners installed a toilet roll holder on the cavity door wall. Result: Two big gouges in the side of the cavity door from the screws!
cavity slider eh? never heard that before, sounds cool. we call them pocket doors
Ox is an Aussie export XD love how the reps push that fact, you wearing Snickers work pants? You can attach Hultafors knives onto them
Scott I have a few requests, 1. Updated Cameron’s van tour 2. Peau shed tour and 3. Would you recommend the Milwaukee 7 1/4 inch Mitersaw
Hey Scott, I’ve always wondered why the framing lumber is pink? Love your videos man!
Think it's H 1.2 treated with boron in NZ.Pretty sure Scott explains our timber treatment in an earlier video.
Scott, give us Europeans also some love will ya 😎 You've got more fans around the globe I imagine.
I'm on the hunt for John Bull boots for a while now in the Netherlands without any luck.
Blundstones
@@sydneyshinshi yeah can get those, thanks.
I think I'm going to start calling it a cavity slider, and I think I'll start calling pocket doors that too. :D
Wife: that seams really fiddley, like there’s so much checking, adjusting, checking and adjusting
Me (a builder): yeh they’re pretty fiddley
Wife: .... curtains, just use curtains.
😂
hmm, I start looking into pocket doors for some home renovation stuff, then I see this! glorious :D
This would have helped heaps 6 months ago when i done my cavity slider
“He may drive a Bentley, but can he install a pocket door?”
My foreman once told me "never buy a straight edge, wait for your window manufacture to fuck up (they always do) then you ask them to bring you a straight edge when they come out to fix their mistake" to this day I've never paid for a straight edge and I've never not had multiple straight edges
I love watching his exciting videos
He is a cutie
Great videos just a pity it's short 😔
Hi from Ireland sir
Likewise 🤭
@@darraghtraynor1024 😯🤭
The same but different. As so often seems the case NZ has very similar to OZ only better. Our cavity slider kits are way more basic with less features. I have never had one that comes with the door in it pre hung and latch cut out. Also I have never seen a soft close but they may be out there in Melbourne or the like. We even have to supply our own jamb as it is not part of the kit. And your own door of choice. This begs the question if you are doing a house with some form of panel door prevalent can you get your kits with different doors other than the cheap flush ply.
We just use a laser card so there is less up and down. The same way when we make acoustical ceilings.
Laser card? Pls do tell me more
@@getberget laser cards just this piece of plastic that's usually the color that the laser (it lets the laser be more visible) and kind of transparent. It has inch markings and a magnet embedded into the plastic so it can stick upside down and level the ceiling. the laser is always set below the ceiling height because you can't set a whole ceiling from a laser at ceiling height because it will hit the material. It also has a hole so that you can have a string through it so that you can wear it around your neck when you're doing ceilings.
I have a cavity slider in an older home that I'd like to paint. ? I really don't feel like stripping off the framing to get the door out to paint (they put putty in the screw holes). It looks like you installed the door to be painted later? Is it painted in situ or do you take it out again? Seems like a pain.
... and the door was by...? Nice video, cheers...
Cavity Sliders. They are in the South West region of the US.
How do you rate the milwaukee shockwave bits? Was having a little look at them didn’t know if you noticed a difference in using them or not ? Great video again mate
Can you please ask milwaukee for the new 23g pin nailer and review it :) it looks insane!
Put that down there for a sec, “classic”
Just happened to do a cavity slider today haha... do you cut your timber wedges or can u buy them 😎 they always look mint
Nice, hey Scott what laser do you use? Have you got a review vid on laser?
👍
No problem with boots we got Ariat
I tried to get the John Bull boots here in the UK. No dice, sadly.
Got 2 opposing doors 2 do for a grand double pocket sliding entry.
Scott, how do the cavity closer doors meet fire compartmentation codes?
"Cavity Slider" sounds like something you'd find at your doctor's office.
As long as they take you for dinner and a movie first.
Hey man, what are those buckets your use for garbage? I don’t think I saw one in this video but you usually use them for demo. Been looked for those exact once online for myself! I’m have a remodeling company in New Jersey. Thanks Scott!
Doesn't the attic staircase have to be flush with the plasterboard ceiling?
