I think that would be a nice touch. A good intro graphic of some kind. I’ve seen other channels do that. Makes the videos look more official. The voiceover while doing the fast video seems to be a better fit than just playing the fast video. I’m up late at night editing the saying sometimes so if you find a mistake let me know LOL.

extra $500 for mini blinds.. 1504921 is $498 without blinds, the same door 1504922 is $998 with blinds. and if you want a screen, it has to be special ordered for around $260 direct from Pella
Great video, bought a Jeld-Wen from Lowes and this is my project tomorrow. Doesn't seem to bad, have a helper and will take my time flashing. Thanks for doing this video.
I've been doing construction for a long time and i greatly cherish to have worked With my dad. My first watch. Great job on full installation and instructional commentary. 100%
Liquid nail is the absolute worst thing to use on vinyl. I do this everyday as a contractor for the last decade. NP-1 or rainbuster polyurethane would be per manufacturer specs to seal around the fin where a 2-3/4 X 8 screw is required not nails. And on a wooden subfloor I’d never install a door without a recess pan designed specifically for moisture. Tyvek tape wouldn’t pass code it needs a pressure design per code. Also the tyvek would pass over top of the screwed off fin at the top of door to prevent water running downhill not taped over it after it’s screwed off. Don’t pull permits if you’re willing to follow these directions.
If you are replacing an existing door, do you have any suggestions for breaking that liquid nail seal on the bottom of the existing slider? Obviously you don't want to be too rough with the old door and have glass shatter everywhere. Thanks.
installing new sliding doors is always good, but I want to share with you my experience, I live in Orlando Florida, I contacted the Masterslide company with the problem of my sliding doors (if you ask, I will share the contacts) they replaced the rollers, installed a track cover and a new handle with a lock. Now my door is like new and I'm as happy as a child! And most importantly, I thought that I saved more than two thousand dollars! Just because repairs are cheaper!))) so think before ordering new ones. This is not advertising, this is my case.
Great video! I noticed that you didn't use stretch tape or house wrap around the frame of the patio door, why not? Okay, disregard the question, I just got to the end of the video where you spoke about it. :)
I love that door I copied the manu number from your video. But how do you make up the distance when you Sheetrock the wall inside. The frame sits back? No? Your working 2x4 framing correct? Great job, love your videos!,
you can also put some tape on the back of the locking mechanism, close fully, then disengage the lock bolt and it will stick where it needs to be. straighten accordingly, mark screw holes, etc
Hey Josh, we are in the process of building our own house and our contractor got our 4 panel sliding doors in. What is the height and width of that door? Our rough opening is 6”8 and I know that’s standard height but it feels short. Was wondering what you thought about that? Thanks!
How hard is to add flashing to an existing sliding door? I believe this is the reason i am getting water in my ceiling basement. any advice? also because the apartment is very cold in the winter
Standard practices still apply roof or not. It's an opening into the structure and should be treated same for all windows and doors. Otherwise it's sloppy work.
Thank you for your video. Do you feel if there's any concerns of the blinds possibly breaking or being damaged inside or getting stuck? Just curious if anyone has had any negative experiences with the blinds failing somehow. Thanks again for your video.
It’s definitely a solid door. I really like mine so far. For the price I don’t think you can go wrong. Yes weather should be fine against the door. Hope that helps!
@@TheExcellentLaborer that’s great to hear! I got mine for $319 minus delivery and taxes but still a great deal. Also, I noticed it has a header but not like a usual window header- is that normal?
Ok .. question? Might be a stupid one.. did you door have a nailing flange all the way around it? Our door will be sitting on concrete. What do we do about that nailing flange at the bottom?
I bought a Pella door and the are taking it back to remove the nail flange from the bottom since it will be installed on a slab. You then drive screws through the sill. How did you install yours ?
We ended up and removed the flange on the bottom. Then used liquid nail heavy duty for the bottom which also worked as a sealer. Nailed the flange around the sides! Basically just like shown in the video! It’s perfect!
Question I had some sliding doors from Lowe’s installed and before when walking out of my living room out to my patio it was flesh and take a step down into my patio. Now my new doors I had to step up and out which seems like a tripping hazard, is that normal to have a lip on the inside when stepping out?
@@TheExcellentLaborer Something that sets up firm also acts as a mortar, and supports the door frame, reducing movement from traffic. In the event the door needs to be removed, silicone might be too adhesive, causing a lot of unnecessary damage in the process.
I actually ordered and just received a 150 series 96x80 no blinds. It's marketed as reversible/universal. You can configure it any way you like. It comes with instructions to do so. The different ways involve removing the panel(s) and flipping the frame top to bottom and removing the track and relocating it from bottom to top before flipping or top to bottom after prior to reinstalling the panel(s). Then reinstalling the handle as needed as well as the latch potentially if your combination of repositioning causes it to be upside down and or backwards. Again this is with the no blinds version. And the instructions to do so are provided with the door. Not able to order as left or right. Its just universal and you can bet it will likely be opposite of how you'd like to install it. But definitely doable. I can't speak for the blinds version but I feel like it would work similarly but perhaps not. Pella does have instructions also on there website but they seem to be generic and referencing another model. But looking at my instructions for the 150 and comparing them to the online instructions. It's the exact same process.
@@ericinalaska7648 Thank you for this information. i just purchased this 150 series door without the blinds and i need to reverse the door. so glad its doable.
A 72x80 vinyl 250 double sliding door from pella actual size is 71.5”x79.5”. So the rough opening is recommended to be 72”x80”. You want to have at least a half inch bigger rough opening then the width and height of the frame size. Also the door shown installed does not meet u factor and would not pass code in the Chicago area. So check what the minimum u factor is in your area.
I need to remove and reinstall a similar door so I can have a custom made sill pan put underneath. Anyone with experience doing this? Would the nailing fin survive after removing nails and re-nailing? Any other problems with doing this?
Shouldn't you take both glass doors out of the frame first and install? Much easier to handle and plum without the glass doors, as well as no danger of breakage during installation..
Nice video. However, did you notice there is no way to lock the door from the outside!! For real, No keyed locking mechanism. This is really something Pella should state on the packaging.
Hello guys . İs there any one know how can i order atio vinly sliding door panel . İ mean i don t want all part . Just sliding door part . Than i can replace my self . . There is no place sell only some part of it . Thank you so much
This is completely unrealistic! No measuring four times and still getting it wrong. No wife questioning if you really know what you’re doing. Frame was too plumb. And where’s the duct tape?! All jokes aside, great video!!! Planning on installing one soon and this will definitely be helpful.

If you end up doing the flashing under the door, what do you use for fastening it to the floor? Liquid nails ontop of the tape? screws?
Liquid nail is the absolute worst thing to use on vinyl. I do this everyday as a contractor for the last decade. NP-1 or rainbuster polyurethane would be per manufacturer specs to seal around the fin where a 2-3/4 X 8 screw is required not nails.

Pretty nice. For anyone interested in European blinds I would suggest Dako brand.

Great job, love your videos!,
The blinds are Awesome!
I love the blinds building. It’s the only way to go.
Question: Does the rough opening specified by the manufacturer include the bottom plate or is it measured directly from the subfloor up?
you can also put some tape on the back of the locking mechanism, close fully, then disengage the lock bolt and it will stick where it needs to be. straighten accordingly, mark screw holes, etc

Great video, thanks bud!
What would be wrong with caulking the top and sides of the door before hammering the nails in?
On the nailing of the door flange, I always thought that you never want to nail the header bc of the wall settling over time...can you explain?
Nice video!
No flashing or sill pan? Seems like risky business - but looks like the exterior has a roof over it so probably not an issue
Would seem like the manufacture’s warranty would be nullified without a sill pan or flashing.
Until you spray it with a garden hose
Standard practices still apply roof or not. It's an opening into the structure and should be treated same for all windows and doors. Otherwise it's sloppy work.
Then why say anything
Can you successfully re-shim a door after it is installed? I have a gap on the bottom of the door and the bottom of the middle seal
Thanks Man
No problem!
Thank you for your video. Do you feel if there's any concerns of the blinds possibly breaking or being damaged inside or getting stuck? Just curious if anyone has had any negative experiences with the blinds failing somehow. Thanks again for your video.
I have. Blinds stopped working
I just ordered this patio door. Do you think it’s good for outside weather? I got the 60 X 80
It’s definitely a solid door. I really like mine so far. For the price I don’t think you can go wrong. Yes weather should be fine against the door. Hope that helps!
@@TheExcellentLaborer that’s great to hear! I got mine for $319 minus delivery and taxes but still a great deal. Also, I noticed it has a header but not like a usual window header- is that normal?
Shim behind the latch, it can throw the reveal off
lining up lock mechanism can use carpenter square as oppose to eyeballing…
Can you put the glass sliding door on a bottom stud?
Instead of "reveal" , I would say "gap" between the operating panel stile and frame jamb but great show!
Yeah that term would work!
Ok .. question? Might be a stupid one.. did you door have a nailing flange all the way around it? Our door will be sitting on concrete. What do we do about that nailing flange at the bottom?

what is the difference between pella 250& 150 series?

what about flashing and water proof silicone instead of liquid nails??
You could use silicone. I like how hard liquid nails sets up. Thanks for watching!
@@TheExcellentLaborer Something that sets up firm also acts as a mortar, and supports the door frame, reducing movement from traffic. In the event the door needs to be removed, silicone might be too adhesive, causing a lot of unnecessary damage in the process.
Have you ever reversed this door ?? I need one to open in opposite direction, is this possible with this door + blinds ?? (great video btw)
Oh and is not. Inside with blinds must be on the interior. Good question though!
What handedness was this door?

This header is made out of two 2 x 12. The length is 3 inches longer than the width of the door. I hope that helps!
What do I need for a header?
Nice video. However, did you notice there is no way to lock the door from the outside!! For real, No keyed locking mechanism. This is really something Pella should state on the packaging.
Yes there is key lock mechanism. They should have said that on the box. I’m not sure if they do or not. Thanks for watching!
Seriously no flashing and sill and water tightening it? Do you have any ideas what you doing?
Liquid nails on the bottom seal never heard of that one sealant maybe ...!
Yes it’s common practice
Good luck to the person who has to someday replace that door with it being liquid nailed to the subfloor.
