If only all old door frames where that good!🤔
Yeah, I moved into a 1960s ex-council flat and every frame was wonky. Great way to learn the craft though, and managing stress
I've watched a ton of videos on how to install a door. This is by far the best and most thorough explanation of the steps needed. Gives me the confidence of taking on my own door install. Great job!!
great video im looking to fit these myself those door bags will make fitting easier top man
Best video I’ve seen on fitting a door and I’ve watched lots - it is worth watching other people’s takes, but I’d say you have the best thought out method that points out a few subtleties others don’t mention . I don’t fit doors often - and am about to fit 4, and hence wanted to remind myself of a logical sequence to tackle them. Thanks !
Very good explanation. I fitted one door today. It should be quicker now after seeing this guy in action..
Good idea to measure left and right side of opening to fit a square door into an existing opening.
Great to see you smiling again
thank you for this video fellas, really happy you decided to make this and showed multiple methods. Wish me luck ;-)
Absolutely brilliant, very detailed and every step I needed covered. Also covering those that do not have all the array of power tools. Nice one dude.
Thanks mate 😊💪🏼
These videos are legendary. Keep them coming.
Seriously, these are the best guys for home improvements/ DIY, even better then Tim the Tool man Taylor. 👍
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Absolutely brilliant and very informative video, I now feel confident fitting the 6 doors I have to do, Thankyou
Great video and really well explained, actually makes it look less scary to do as a DIYer
Thanks 😁😁
first thing i always do before cutting to height,get a steel square and check from the hanging side that the head of the frame is square ,a common problem you come across and if you have fit the door to the head you may end up with to much clearance on the bottom
Nice tip that 😊💪🏼
You lads remind me so much of myself it`s unbelievable.........I`m better looking obvs, but you & SkillBuilder are probably the best on UA-cam. I`m a Floorlayer & hear so many in the trade saying they won`t even ease doors for clients after fitting new carpets or wood floors. Keep it up lads, i did my first bullnose following your method this week & it was the best i`ve ever done, so i owe you one............
Your Dad`s name ain`t Chris is it.......?
Nice one Chris appreciate it mate 😁💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Nah
Your video is the best I have seen and I have seen alot. Thank you for doing a great job on explaining step by step with great info and safety with care. You have given me a boost to put up new entry door up which have been sitting a side for months! 👍
Wow, thank you!
just brilliant! many thanks
Awesome, thank you for your detailed help and explanations, made it look easy but very doable.
Thanks 😊😊
A fantastic video tutorial. It gives me the confidence to tackle the job myself. 👍
Thanks 😊💪🏼
Excellent video, very helpful. Thank you.
echoing other comments - have doors to fit, watched a few other videos - this is by far the best👍
Brilliantly explained! I’m actually going to try and hang my doors myself! 🤞🏻🤞🏻
Nice 😁👍🏼
This is absolutely top notch. Not everyone who's got skills can also pass them on so well. I've got four doors to replace and this will help me no end. Not the first time your videos have helped me out. Cheers, guys.
Great to hear and thanks 😁😁
Absolutely brilliant video! So glad I found this. Wish I’d seen it sooner. I’m now Halfway through 1 door and doing it every way wrong 😂
Glad it helped! 😁😁
As a locksmith you have given me a few tips I'd never thought about !
I will say that a company called jigtech make a great jig set for putting latches and handles on and the only other tip I would say is forstner bits tend to make a nicer job of the holes especially on the start but spade bits are miles cheaper to buy as if you have normal style handles then work perfectly well as you guys have shown
Thanks mate 😊💪🏼
@@homeimprovements no worries guys, despite my line of work I cant actually hand a door myself but you made it look so easy that I'm not particularly scared of trying it anymore! Keep up the good work and information
Best how to I've ever watched!! ❤️
Thanks 😁😁🙏🏼
Great explanation. Think I’m ready to go!
Quality video, thanks for making the effort. Love the spacer tip.
Glad you liked it!😁😁

First video of yours I’ve come across. Subscribed on the spot.
Really well paced but descriptive content. Great to watch.
Awesome, thank you! 😁😁
Cheers, mate,thanks for the video . Don't take this the wrong way , you sound like Sid Snot 👍
The grove on the base of the plane is for taking the sharp edges off. Carpenters like myself call it the Arris.
Excellent advice and video cheers
Thanks much appreciated 🔥
Another new subscriber here. Top class instruction. Clear and complete.
Awesome, thank you!
Great job and very well explained!
Thank you! 😊
Could you perhaps do a video on how to install a composite front door?
Proper job 👌
😁🙏🏼
Thanks, you got my subscription.
Awesome, thank you!

Thanks mate 💪🏼
Thankkkkk yooooooouuuuu
good work. This guy is definitely a Dewalt guy. I wonder if they have Milwaukee tools over there.
I had two Milwaukee gave them away to a follower of ours 😊💪🏼
Decent video that well explained
Thanks 😊
Brillant Video
👏🏼
Your advice about avoiding cheap hinges made me subscribe. Thank you, Tool Brother.
Thanks for the sub! 😁👏🏼
Quality video. Nice one 👍
Thanks 👍
Your precise explanation is very much everything. Cheers.
Great series of informative videos.
Do a Velux if you get chance, please.
We will try and thanks 😁👏🏼
Excellent well explained 👍👍
Thank you 🙂
Cracking video 👍
Thanks 👍
Great video. Could you do a video on how to remove and install door linings?
Great suggestion!
Great stuff, thank you. Will come back to this in stages as working through. Worth getting an electric planer, do you think? The little air bags look handy
In old frame electric planer is brilliant bit of kit 😊
It’s been tricky to use for me but getting the hang of it. Win bags and combination square added to collection, planer borrowed. Thanks so much for this vid, it’s so clear, got time stamps etc. What do you think about chamfered/bevelled edges on doors? Worth doing/necessary? I worry about splitting it with the plane but I think it has one of those grooves that you can use on a corner@@homeimprovements
cool video good job
Thanks!

"You heard right Mr Solomon"
Fab Video - Is there a way of patching up the old hinge cutouts?
We’ll try cover that in a video 😊
On really old frames template the head on to top of door, then measure height, head of frame could be really out of level.
Very rare to measure one side of the frame , relying on the top being level, but, must admit he does mention that !
The hinges go on the other way round. Reason being that the weight of the door is held on by the side with 3 bits attaching the pin to the plate, not the one with 2. It supports more weight which is why it’s designed that way (qualified Chippy btw)
Good to know 😊👌🏼👌🏼
Do you have one showing how to install a front door with letterbox and Yale lock installation?
Class
😁🙏🏼
Just want to say thank you took me best part of 4 hrs with a manual planer and chisels but it’s on and working and doesn’t swing 😂
That’s brilliant 😁👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Awesome video
nothing like the sound of a door closing properly. cheers
Thanks mate 😁
Hi.... Great video btw.... but quick question.... if these are finished doors... ie... no need to paint or oil/varnish...... then what about when you shave the sides of the door to make it fit.... you have now taken the 'finish' off... do you re-oil that part?
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Almost exactly the way i fit doors... Only exceptions i use a door lifter rather than bags and take the door off to fit the latch... I just feel more in control with the door on its side and drilling down into it rather than drilling at waist height with the door hung.
Just personal preferences makes no real difference.
👍👍👍
Nice mate Yh I get what’s your saying 💯 😊😊💪🏼💪🏼
I'm the same with the tubular latches much prefer to do them off the frame
Hi why are you using an impact driver for drilling out the doors
Brilliant video mate thank you. Is there a reason the hinge goes on slotted side to the door at all please? Thanks mate
Not that I know of mate just how I do it 😊💪🏼💪🏼
@The Home Improvements Channel UK thanks mate keep up the good videos too 😀👌
Thanks 😁😁
Always got told to use a combi if using a drill when fitting doors over a impact
👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
If I had the tools, I’d give this a go myself
Always use a 3 inch latch puts it in the centre😊
Agree this is a cheap kit however handles and latches
Dilema, need a new door but frame is not standard and all doors except solid wooden doors can only be planed by max 10mm and i need 12mm each side and dont want to spend extra on a solid door , so my only option is to reduce the door frame size. Need to plane across width any tips on how to avoid breakout? Or is there another solution?
This is why we don’t offer prep to fits. Full replacement baby. In and out
Lads you just cost me a fortune...you made it look easy so ordered 11 cottage oak doors😂. Just a shame my existing 1970's frames must of been fitted by a first year apprentice!! They is like well pissed bruv
🙈🙈🙈
Out of curiosity why do you chisel across the grain and not with the grain when sinking the hinge
Prevents the chisel deviating 😊
Deviating off the intended line? I'm a young carpenter and always got taught to work with the grain seems as though depth would be easier to judge the way you do it. Appreciate the reply 👍
Which specific door on the website is this please as there’s a few different names?
Please help thank you
I really need these guys in my life, are they married ?? Lol xxx
Could you use a multi tool to chisel out for the hinges?
Maybe never tried 😊
if your a cowboy yes
Hi mate, what's the best way to fix up the old frames? Mine have notches cut out from old hinges and striker plates. Is there anyway to fill them or is it a case of a new frame? Cheers
You can or splice new timber in to repair the damage 😊
I use Ronseal wood filler. Invisible once sanded and painted. Might work for you.
I notice you hinged the door opposite to original hanging side off frame, the light switch is now behind the door😮
Good spot but it’s for future works the room is being split and house extended 😊😊
Please, equalise your audio and balance the stereo channels.
Its just a matter of moving the light switch now (another video?)!!
Eventually once the extension is up 😊😊
If my door has no indication as to which side is for the hinges does this mean I can use either side?
Why have you changed the hanging side of the door & frame..? This means you can't get to the light switch now without entering the room around the door in the dark..🤷🏽♂️🤔
We know house is being extended and re wired 😊
if you have a 3mm gap you can not set your hinge in all the way otherwise you will have only a 1.5 mm gap when you hang it
How many doors like this would you fit a 8am to 4pm day?
How much would you charge for this job?
what about the door head not being level you never checked the other side of the frame or used a level to check any unevenness
The world would be f*cked if it wasn’t for lads like you, brilliant video, well played sir
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Sir l am an lndian and I am a carpenter also, can you take me as an assistant. I want my job in abroad especially UK❤❤❤
I removed an old door and added 9mm mdf to make it fancy to the front and back. Now the door is too thick and doesnt close. What do I do? 😢
Remove stops and reinstall them further back 😊
No disrespect but you have to measure both side of high door frame ...always you cross with one side higher to the other and very rare they are both sale measurements on both side due to floor level and frale level
Did we not show that in video ? If not our bad you are spot on 👍🏼
What happened to the volume? Nothing after the introduction just silence?
Strange not had anyone say before 🤔
You have job
Step 1 error- you only measured one side of the opening - what happens if the floor or the head is running out ?… a quick measure of both jams and check for square !!
That’s like a new frame also!
Intro music needs to be lower in the mix.
I knew this was gonna be an advert fest
🤷🏼♂️
Is that a finished oak door?
Yes 👍🏼
@@homeimprovements what happens when you have to plane a finished oak door? Does it have to be re varnished after?
It does 😊
Ive seen new linings worse than 50 year old ones
Wrong. Measure both sides height
