Rotten Door, Full Repair. Here's How I Did It.

I get asked a lot which blades I used in the multitool. I like these ones - amzn.to/3pthIyP alongside the festool Speed max blades - amzn.to/32lcY5R
The Panel in the video is not Normal MDF It is called Medite Extreme MDF Which is a product known as Tricoya - tricoya.com
The Timber Used is Accoya - www.accoya.com/uk
Air bags used in the frame repair - amzn.to/3f2RE7X
This is the Long version of the door restoration. Please see here for the Quick run through. • Restoring A Door In Un...
In this Episode I am restoring a Door and Frame in a walled garden. Splicing the frame with a new Accoya section and replacing the whole bottom 1/3rd of the door. This is an original Redwood pine door, an incredibly durable slow grown timber (unlike modern redwood) and is well over 40 years old! More than worthy of a bit of restoration! I hope you enjoy the process!
I chose to repair as its more economical. Its a very durable gate already as it has lasted a long time up to this point. To replace the frame would be quite destructive and there is a lot of expensive timber and time to make a replica arched gate. I managed to complete this whole process in a weekend, 11am start on the Saturday and finished around 7pm on Sunday. A replacement would take an awful lot longer.

I spent 95% of my working life making reproduction dining chairs, Hepplewhite and Chippendale styles. I still do the occasional odd jobs, and there are so many bodged jobs and cowboys out there. But you are the real deal. Pleasure to watch your approach, planning and execution. Great to see such a comprehensive workshop and some one who knows how to use it, could almost smell the wood. Your client was, I hope, highly delighted with your efforts. Well done, first class job.

Maybe some were cowboys but maybe some were just practical amateurs having a go. Done a few DIY jobs myself that look ok from a distance but what a tradesman would tut and shake his head at. Most still did the job and got it fixed until I could afford to get it done professionally.

@@spenny6222 Here your better off doing it yourself. A lot of so called pros cant hit the head of a nail with a sldge hammer. I can drive a 16 penny in with 3 swings and set it flush. Not many guys can do that anymore its all about power tools. I've seen stuff done on my 1990s house that every trade dropped the stupid ball on. Some of it shouldn't have passed codes inspection andvorvits not just crappy craftsmanship but stright up mistakes they let slide. Yep you want good work youve got to do it yourself.

This type of restoration was always my favourite over the past 50 years. Having said that, I am still quite in awe of your skills, efficient layout, and tool fluency, to say nothing of the extraordinarily well adapted tooling manifesting a tremendous amount of thoughtful preparation of the work space, both in the shop and in the field. Yikes, the overhead! Very little appreciation for this quality of work in the US, at least in my little backwater. I was thoroughly entertained and so impressed with the efficiency. I learned a lot I’ll sadly never have the opportunity to apply.

Thanks for the inspiration! I just made a replacement bottom rail for our 81-year-old door. I don't have sizable machine tools in my current workshop, so I cut the tenons and the top channel on the table saw and used a chisel and a hand plane for the fine work. It took a while, but not longer than going to get bigger tooling that I won't use in the future. I'm happy enough that the door is solid again and functions normally. I was a bit intimidated by the project until seeing this video of yours. Much appreciated!

They are certainly more popular now than 10 years ago! They had a Fein when I started in 2007. I've not seen another one until about 5 years ago when they started taking off!

@johnriggs4929 2 жыл бұрын

I kept seeing them when I popped into the toolshop and kept thinking "What use are they?" Eventually I bought a Makita 18v one and the number of times it got me out of a fix... Hardly a job goes by without it being used. Underrated, as you say.

My Bosch 18V brushless multi tool is the best power tool I've purchased to date. Worth it's weight in gold and has paid for itself ten times over. A real game changer and the ultimate get out of jail card, 👍🔨🇮🇪

Really nicely done. i just have a question, did you treat the endgrain at the bottom of the framerepair ? and if not, why would that be ?

@BradshawJoinery 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks MAte, I put a clear End grain sealer on the bottom, its a product by sikkens, dries fairly fast. If your in a mega rust to seal end grain and have no other options, i have in the past allowed superglue to soak into the grain then use a spray activator to harden it instantly. Sealing the end grain of accoya is only to benefit the paint adhesion really. the actual timber itself will not wrot even if completely saturated.. for a long time

Great video and very instructive. The new panels you made looked like MDF, is that what you used?

Cheers Lee, Yes Its Extreme MDF from Medite, made using Accoya wood fibres. Will last outside unpainted for 50 years!!! Ive a test piece sitting in a puddle outside the workshop for 7 years now, other than it being very discouloured its still exactly the same .

Wow, great work. I have a very similar job to do on the front door of my old French house. Being over 120 years old it's not something that I can buy off the shelf to replace, so repair is really my only option. Your video has given me an idea of how I'm going to have to tackle it. Many thanks.

Nice one, there is always the ption to have the door remade exactly the same if it goes wayward! Although expensive, it is something to admire and enjoy!

Cheers Mike, I could never do anythign good enough for the boss i had as an apprentice. If it was perfect it was too slow... all while he sat on the computer watching movies and the business failed. I learnt a great deal there but most of the refinement and what i am showing is learned through education from compaines or development myself.

My Father was a boat builder - building & repairing MTB’s during the war. He did a similar repair on my elderly & rotten garage door. He did a ‘scarf’ joint on the frame and used only hand tools for the whole repair. It looked amazing when he’d finished it. I wanted to be a boat builder on leaving school. He talked me out of it as he thought fibre glass boats had finished the trade off. You did a brilliant job on your door and frame!
