In this video I am building a new canopy over the front French doors, then I remove the old tired French doors and replace with new graphite grey ones. The has completely changed the look of the house. #joinery #frenchdoors

Nice little job that I wouldn't use the plastic membrane as a underlay but I suppose as it's all out in the open it wouldn't be a issue 👍

Canopy perfect👍 French doors Looks good but not practical for me, to get in you need open 2 doors🤷‍♂️ and after another one door🤣

Nice job but I would have at least primed the backs of all the timbers to help stop them rotting from behind where they abut the brickwork.

@foundationgood123 2 жыл бұрын

Yes we did that

@cbuzz866 5 күн бұрын

Can the front of the canopy be changed if it has rotten away and would you have to support the roof of canopy to do so ? As mine has rotten and the easiest fix would be that if possible

Hi Chris. Did you need to toe and heel the glass or were the doors narrow enough that that wouldn’t be necessary for this one? Great job

Yes toe and healed then bro

Hi Chris. Nice interesting upload. I love the narration too. When the line in the brickwork was cut out, it looked wonky - was this a visual thing because of the brick archwork? I couldn't work it out. Thanks in advance 🙂

@foundationgood123 2 жыл бұрын

Not entirely sure what you mean, the arch will make it look strange but also when grinding the grove you can’t always get it pertly strait, but when its leaded in and filled with mortar or in my job lead mate, then it fills in and looks straight

@utilitarian 2 жыл бұрын

@@foundationgood123 that's exactly what I thought it was. I'd figured grinding it might have caused it but like you said, once finished it's not visible. Not a criticism, just wondered. 🙂

Since the door has a curved brick line, why didn't you make a curved canopy?

DPC is not breathable it will cause the timber to sweat and rot. Sorry Chris just a observation.

@foundationgood123 2 жыл бұрын

I think on such a small job and with it being open plan it will be ok, I wouldn't however use it on a larger enclosed roof its better to use the breathable understaters membrane as we do on extensions etc.
