If only all old door frames where that good!🤔

[fjzero]

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!!

[EnglishOak]

Seriously, these are the best guys for home improvements/ DIY, even better then Tim the Tool man Taylor. 👍

[chrismiles-witchell]

You lads remind me so much of myself it`s better looking obvs, but you & SkillBuilder are probably the best on YouTube. 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

[gluehoof]

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.

These videos are legendary. Keep them coming.

[edwardmorris]

thank you for this video fellas, really happy you decided to make this and showed multiple methods. Wish me luck ;-)

[jonnyhifi]

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 !

[notcharles]

Good idea to measure left and right side of opening to fit a square door into an existing opening.

[matthewrobinson]

Very good explanation. I fitted one door today. It should be quicker now after seeing this guy in action..

[charlieholdontolove]

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! 👍

[bpqxeth]

great video im looking to fit these myself those door bags will make fitting easier top man

[Kelsdoggy]

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 😂

[alec]

Cheers, mate, thanks for the video . Don't take this the wrong way, you sound like Sid Snot 👍

[leth]

Another new subscriber here. Top class instruction. Clear and complete.

[digitalbanananana]

echoing other comments - have doors to fit, watched a few other videos - this is by far the best👍

[bigdame]

Absolutely brilliant and very informative video, I now feel confident fitting the 6 doors I have to do, Thankyou

[russalternative]

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.

[royboywales]

The grove on the base of the plane is for taking the sharp edges off. Carpenters like myself call it the Arris.

[Hypn]

Great video and really well explained, actually makes it look less scary to do as a DIYer
