Making a MDF Door and Door Frame (from a reclaimed door) - Workshop Upgrade Part 7
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2017
- In this video I show you how to make a door. I'm building my new workshop door from scratch. I'm using reclaimed glass from an old door that was destined for the skip. The materials from the old door will be used in future projects so subscribe to see what happens! The new door is made from 12mm MDF and pine. I'm using MDF since it's more soundproof and insulating than other materials. Enjoy!

Thank you!! 👍🛠🤘
You sure are brilliant in what you do and you’ve just given me the confidence to get making! Thank you very much for sharing your unrivalled knowledge. You’re good.
Great job....For an inside door that works fine. For a door that is an exterior door always remember to drill a hole in both ends of the glass panel frame. Make wood pluts to fill the hole after you purge the air out and fill with Nitrogen. If you don't the windows will condense on the inside panels and always fog or water up.
Only thing I can say is awesome. Nice attention to detail and great to see you re-using the old glass.
Never seems to need a plane or planer/thicknesser. Rarely even a router yet the results are great. Inspiring
Nice to see someone putting in the screws so that the grooves all face the same direction, it is the little points that show a true craftsman
Cheers John - it's the little things! 😀
But vertical?
Absolutely cracking job enjoyed every minute of that.
Great approach as well. No commentary probably makes it easier for you to create but you did things so clearly and held camera position a few times to emphasise a point. Brilliant.
Very informative and super enjoyable upload.
Thanks.
what a great neat trick to screw hinge and chop around, as luck has it i am hanging 3 new doors soon.
I admire your work, I wish I could make my own door like this, I'll be so proud. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for the comments bud!
Nicely done, the door as well as the video and edit. Enjoyed watching and learning without burdensome lecture.
GREAT JOB. AWESOME VIDEO....THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOU KNOWLEDGE AND SKILL
Absolutely fantastic job! You have a new fan in Connecticut! ❤️
Just found you hear and BOOM I'm hooked like what you do and accomplish I think that you will have a lot more than this extremely excited thumbs up my friend
Buenas noches, desde Argentina un abrazo grande y me gustaría decirte que eres una persona extraordinaria se observa tu trabajo limpio y ordenado muchas gracias por compartir tus grandes obras realmente te felicitó por todo.
Nice work looks amazing.
Brilliant craftsmanship
Good job, but a lot of work. I just used the old, solid wood front door from my house. 3 bevelled windows on top, solid and pretty soundproof and best if all, free.
Andy that is a very nice job on building the door. Keep up the nice work I do enjoy your projects as well as your Geordie sense of humour.
Cheers Michael - that is now my #stickerdoor 👍
Nice and extremely clean and straight again thumbs up my friend
Such a great work, I like your making glass technique
That was so much fun to watch!
Your skills are amazing!
I am going to try and build a door for the basement now, it’s an odd size and very expensive to have made.
Oh, I’m a new viewer to you channel, been watching for about four days now. FYI I’m in Columbus, Ohio - 🇺🇸
Cheers Brian - welcome to the channel! 👍
Great job! Really enjoying your channel and the fast music that pops up make me laugh.
O cara é muito bom no que faz, parabens
Very nice mate
Well done!
Good job , Good result ! 👍🏽👌🏽
Excelente trabajo amigo.
What a great series Andy. Loved it. It's a credit to you mate looks a treat.
New to your channel and podcast. Working my way through yours and Peters back catalogues. It's taking over my life....😁😁😂😂👍👍👍
Welcome to the channel! 👍👍
great job,from Belgium!!
Brass lock with silver handle is a no, no!
(from a locksmith)
Great video, really enjoy your stuff.
Learned a few tricks. Excellent, screw slots should align horizontally not vertically so screwdriver wont slip out.
Nice work 👍
masterful!
Very good job from Greece
Cheers John and a big welcome to Greece! 👍🛠
Good work
You are great ouman
Eu quero ver quando um copo quebra, nem quero imaginar a dificuldade de mudá-lo, é realmente básico esse problema poderia ser evitado
Nicely done and an inspiration for my workshop in progress for this beginner woodworker. Keep it up, i like your video`s very mutch. I sub`d for the next video`s becaurse i don`t want to miss a thing!!
Great stuff - welcome to the channel! 👍🛠
my greeting for you from iraq my special thanks for your idea well done
He's so fast and I like his sense of humor
very cool
More of a craftsmen than a handy man. Since your in the UK could you do a video if you ever get time or place on what to do with replacing door frames. I was thinking about ripping the old ones out and lining with timber like our American friends do that way to give a good base to fit door frame to rather than mess around with shimming out more than i need and finding a good fixing with different wall materials (Brick and black breezeblock) I will probably either have to get smaller doors 27" or make the opening larger. I might of answered my own question really with the amount of work that would take.
Think i might just have to make custom frames rather than off the shelf rubbish.
Thanks for the kind words! I run a joinery business so the handyman thing is really just for UA-cam. Solid wood frames in older houses are always tricky due to the wall thickness rarely being even. Different story in a timber framed house. Will look great when done though - best of luck! 👍
Yes, definitely a craftsman, Y-it-Earp. Very methodical in his approach. Well done Gosforth Handyman.
That was great to watch! Speaking as a hobbyist woodworker, it's amazing to see a professional at work (and I don't even like mdf or painted wood!) Just subbed!
Good job Bro! 👀😎👍
extraordinary only a minimum detail ... paint inside the glass frame to make it perfect😁great job!!
I’m glad It’s not just me that does that with screws. 👍🏻💂♂️🇬🇧
woooow ..........great job, masterpiece......
good job
Clever man double glazing
Good job
Thank you bud! 👍
Just found this series, really nice. You have answered most my queries in other comments but was there any reason for not adding a wall/insulation either side of where the garage door is?
Had to think there lol... those bits are double brick, the rest of the garage is single brick. So happy to leave as is there. 👍
Great job bro, but where is the thumbnail image in this video's
No dust mask!!! Mdf is pure poision. Nice video and door.
You should really wear a dust mask for cutting any wood, not just MDF. 👍
I love the work and I have been train how can I get the job.
Good video, looks like door finished out nice. Have to ask, why did you use mdf? I ask because I don’t care for it. IMO, any positives are far outweighed by negatives with this product. I would use birch plywood and edge band it with popular. Thx
The door I was looking for.

Hi I've just subscribed to your channel and have to say I'm loving your videos. Can you tell me the make of your palm router and would you recommend buying one.
Cheers Terry from Gateshead.
Hey Terry - welcome to the channel! It's a Bosch GKF600 and I love it!
Nice
mesin planer beli dimana tk indonesia apa bisa kerja kaya gitu
It doesn't look like you did anything about hiding the seams around the edge of the door. What would you have done? Filler? Veneer?
For a customer I'd probably do a thin softwood frame around the whole thing... but I wouldn't make something like this for a customer. 👍😀
Why do you sand the places where the hinges are going before you chiselers out the wood
Vous êtes magnifique
انت بارع يا صديقي
I don’t know anything about woodworking so haha take this with a grain of salt. Wouldn’t it be a good idea to create a stronger half-circle-shaped plywood section where the knob attached to the door and connect it to the mdf with dowels? That way you can have a strong attachment to the door structure while giving the door a break point should the door become worn around the door knob and you need to replace it? I guess this can be used for a repair strategy. (I’ve actually never seen mdf in person)
good
Just found your channel. Really interesting, just sub'd.
Cheers - welcome to the channel! 👍

The shop’s final result turned out excellent Andy! And the door was nicely done!
What is your definition of a Joiner? Or the U.K. definition of a joiner?
Congratulations on a job well done.
Ron
Thank you! Technically over here a joiner joins things (e.g. makes cabinets) and a carpenter fits things on-site but realistically, certainly in my business, you always do a bit of both. It seems about 50/50 whether folk refer to themselves as joiners or carpenters. 👍😀
Yes I’m a joiner and I’ve always thought of it as a joiner can make a bespoke kitchen , staircase, doors, windows , anything but a carpenter will mostly fit things unless it’s something simple that he can do himself ie without all the technology of workshop machinery
My grandfather made furniture and was referred to as a "cabinet maker"
جميل 👍
Re: fitting hinges and mortice lock. What is the router gadget you use?
Just a little palm router - best way to get accurate hinge depth. 👍🛠
Thank you. Didn't see a template or guide. Do you use the palm router by eye?
Yes - very carefully! I don't go right to the edge - chisel the rest. You can also get jigs / guides and use hinges with rounded corners.
Nice except the window.
If a pane gets broken you have to deconstruct that section of the door, or bodge it.
I guess "amazing" is the correct word for this.
like a boss..
fantastic work.
I need to know, why MDF ? all these works on MDF?
You must have a reason.
Please let me know.
thanks millions, had fun watching your skill.
Mainly for sound and heat insulation. 👍
Looks like you need to visit a few car boot sales and pick up some cheap weights 😂😂😂😂
You are good, really good.
Thanks for the kind words Terri! 👍

Really nice job! And so inspiring too. PS: the high speed music in the background reminds me The Benny Hill show sketchs. Bye
another great video, what filler do you tend to use. Garry from Barnsley
Either Bonda Decor Fill (grey) or Ronseal High Performance Wood Filler (white). 👍
Hi Mate, is the Bonda Decor fill the one in 2 parts ?
Yup. 👍
I think would be easier to do everything on the bench including paint as a prehung door.
Having it hung first meant I could work on both sides at the same time. 👍
My greeting from iraq☺
I got to ask you why you would hinge your door to the outside. Somebody could just bust the hinge off and in they come.
Only took you a half hour. Nice.
Nice job 👍🏽. But you must have used like 10 liters worth of glue !😱
Nice work, maybe I missed something from another video, but why did you tear apart the nice old door just to get 2 pieces of glass you could have bought.
The door was destined for the skip so I reclaimed all of the glass and mahogany for future projects. 👍
wow
Nice job except for one thing you forgot to paint the glass frame before you installed the glass.
Everything else great work.
Cheers! I did paint it... it's white. Unless I've got the wrong end of the stick? 😀🤔

Why not use plexi glass instead?
Mainly for sound insulation... and also plexi glass would get scratched over time. 👍
Why install glass after finished the door? Showing window installation technique?
No, just needed to get the door done and it was a little while before I had a chance to put the glass in. 😀👍
20:33 so scary 😂😂😂
The glass door!!! 😫
Wouldn’t it of been a lot easier to fit the window while you were making the door.
I didn't get a chance to add the window until a good few weeks after the door was done - so was easier to just build the unit and add it in. I'd planned for it in the design though. 👍
nice job but easer to buy
It's a completely bespoke size and MDF for soundproofing. An equivalent door with double glazed window would be very expensive.
Masterful! What’s up w/ the 283 HATERS ?
عمل مليح
Hello, my name is Phan Anh. Your video is so useful, can you allow me to use it ? 🙂
Where you talking that whole time? :D
also should have put fire retardant bat insulation on side door.
Why would you destroy that beautiful French door to use one piece of glass in a janky homemade door? Whyyyyyyy????
👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍
No le veo lógica en destruir una puerta vidriera solamente para recuperar dos pedazos de vidrio y hacer un ojo de buey, creo que ubiera sido más conveniente comprar dos pedazos de vidrio.
