Synopsis

Transform your house from ordinary to extraordinary by selecting and installing the right windows and doors. Exploded diagrams, expert advice, and easy-to-follow instructions make this guide a must-have tool. Begin by exploring the myriad types of doors and windows available, and then examine detailed information on the tools and materials needed. Learn how to frame openings, install jambs, add trim and weather-stripping, remove windows, install locks and latches, and more. You'll find step-by-step instructions for some of the most common door projects such as installing a new interior or exterior door, adding a new storm door, and, for the more ambitious, adding a sliding patio door where there was no door previously. Common window and door maintenance and repair are also covered. Whether you want to tackle a door or window project yourself, or want to be able to talk knowledgeably with your contractor, this handy reference features everything you need to know.
