Another great video mate. Nice job, shame about the step up lol. I fitted sliding patio doors to my house but I ended up with the sliding door on the outside! So the bottom runner gets full of leaves and crap. The door is fine. You live and learn. I love work.........I could watch it for hours. Keep up the good work. All the best ;)

[@tomonetruth]

Didn't notice the step till i read your comment - looks like fun!

[@zedman442]

Lovely job mate. I like your silicon technique not going over with finger to smooth it out, looks tight bead too.

[@Stucrompton1]

thanks zed mate

[@Iggy4470]

Hi Stu, could you tell me why you fit the Sill to the door first, cheers.

[@brianchester4218]

Proper job mate all the little things sorted as well

Thank you so much for sharing

[@jackw9920]

Good work, massive improvement in looks

Very nyc red bricks house

[@ritajames7797]

Good work - that key is rather close to the wall. Are they always that near so you only just have room to turn the key or can you get other designs that leave more hand room? I realise the customer was the one who chose that item to fit in place of their old patio doors. You and your work mate did a great job. Thanks for posting on here. :-)

[@joshfarrington5400]

You have done a great job you deserve more subscribers but I suppose the one who you do have support you so well you don't get much hate on your videos

[@Stucrompton1]

What size/length of the concrete screw do you usually use when fitting french/sliding doors?

[@honeyglazing]

We use 120mm :)

[@silentwalker4896]

nice 👍 cheers mate

[@Stucrompton1]

+Float Coins thanks pal

[@nathanbrown255]

Great stuff, do you think this could be done by a competent diy'er or worth calling the pros in?

[@Stucrompton1]

not really a diy project nathan there is many things you have to know about the job but you could have go

[@nathanbrown255]

stu crompton thanks for the reply! I have a couple of small windows I might have a go at! Enjoy your videos mate, keep up the good work!

[@ritajames7797]

As a DIY-er and householder, I would not attempt it on my own. In fact, I would prefer to get experts in to do this for me and pay them because they are insured and have better expertise.

[@1sttigertiger426]

How was the trim adhered to the sliding door? Was it glued or nailed?

[@BMcKenna]

Nice job there! What brand of sealant do you two use for windows and doors stu?

[@Stucrompton1]

soudal oor silversil but this one i dont know because its a new brand because silversil out of stock. cheers ben

[@honeyglazing]

Parasilico AM85 best silicone!👌👌

[@OnlineHousehusband]

Cracking job as always Stu.......although why would anyone go from French doors to sliding? IMO a new set of French doors which spanned the complete width would of been better for usability. 👍🏼

[@taffgriff69]

Because French doors are shit! If you have kids you will know this to be true! A slider is a better option if u have crazy kids like I do!

[@nobodydoesithalfasgoodasyou]

Depends whether you prefer looking at glass or UPVC, I suppose

[@parminderdeogan5592]

Hi Stu do you cover most areas of the UK?

[@rjames6056]

Why didn't you put a tray under the door?

[@Stucrompton1]

i dont know what u mean, its a pvc cill under the door

[@rjames6056]

A DPC tray under and then upstanding on the inside? A waterproofing system. 👍🏻

[@Stucrompton1]

the cill is the waterproofing system, its plastic

[@theetheeyog9878]

Good answer stu 💡💡💡💡

[@anthonydear4708]

So how much would the total cost of that be including all materials?

[@Bobby8270]

I bought a patio door for £530. Going to have a go at it myself. Prob be £250 to fit here in Northern Ireland. I got a quote from a glazing company for £1300. They were taking out a window and they would have to cut out opening etc. I’m not a builder. Just a DIYer. Hope this helps.

[@BT-lm4fd]

@@Bobby8270 how did you get on?

[@herlindoperez575]
