Replacing back Dutch door with ten light French door.

 

My client who lives in the historic district of Phoenix found my business on Angie’s List, he asked me to replace his back door.
His Dutch door (The door is split in half so you can open only the half upper section or the the whole door.) The Dutch door was an out swing.
My client wanted a new French door to swing open into the house, that way he can add a screen door.
I had to replace the jamb and the trim as well.
The house was built with red bricks.

 

It was a bit of a challenge to attach the new door jamb to the bricks because the bricks were a bit loose. I had to re-enforce the bricks first, so the wall is solid.
I sprayed expandable polyurethane foam between the bricks,
I came back the next day and the foam was dry and the wall was very solid and ready for the new door installation.

 

After the installation of the door and trim, I had to repair the outside stucco.
Now the it is all ready for stain and painting of the walls around the door.
