home repair

[trooper55]

kinda off topic but i just wanted to see if anyone out there has done much home repair im going to start fixing my mothers house for her. I have to redo a whole bathroom, and she wants french doors in the back of the house.

Has anyone ever done french doors? I have no clue how to go about starting on that so i just wanted to see if there was anyone that could give me some pointers.

Thanks
Rory

Here is a sight that will give you a general idea. Probably the most important
is to remove the molding from the inside, around the door and measure the
opening in the wall. That is how you order the proper size door. Get a prehung door to fit the opening.

yes, pre-hung! I put french doors where there used to be windows... came out good, but, been there, done that, would pay to have it done again!
