What a great video. I've just finished doing something very similar to this (Before I saw this video). All other videos show how 'easy' laying these floors are, but they conveniently don't show the 'problem' of laying in a doorway on the opposite side of where they started. Because the plank has to slide under the cut out parts at the bottom of the door jambs, it's impossible to slot in the board to the previously laid parallel board. I had to figure this out myself. Your method is great and almost identical to my method, but I actually used the normal end-of-plank join (I didn't cut a board in half). I just chipped off one side of the end join a bit so that they still slotted in together (A bit hard to explain really). Like your video at about 4:31 I started with the Right hand board on top of the left hand board and slowly tapped it across the left hand board (towards the right) until it went completely past the LH board by a mm or 2, and then tapped it back into the join.
Thank you, I've spent countless hours forcing full pieces in door jams, this tip just saved me 15-30 minutes per double door jams... Been installing since 2012 and I just learned the best tip to save myself countless headaches and procrastination... THANK YOU! I will always have that glue with me!
Thank you. There were a lot of doorways and obstacles in that area and the installation was beautiful! I'm going to be installing vinyl plank in an area with 5 doorways so I wanted to see some tips on how to cut around door jambs. This was helpful.
I"ve been watching tons of videos and even making my own youtube library of Laminate tutorials yet this gentleman is AMAZING!!!! I love the attention to detail and the true real-life scenarios. Gracias Mr. Youcandoityourself your contribution and knowledge base will echo throughout ages. Muchas Gracias!!!
I needed this vinyl glue yesterday. I am going to purchase some. Never knew they made it? Even after doing floors for 30 years. I'm always learning something on your channel. You have excellent videos.
MrYoucandoityourself: Many thanks for your Tutorial on self-leveling cement. My dining project and vinyl plank flooring installation went exceptionally well. I truly appreciate you answering my questions and for your tutorial. You are amazing! Take care, Tim
thanx for a great idea.... i just did the same thing...only i planned my row in a way to have a joint somewhere in the doorway and managed to somehow hammer them together. pain in the ass but awesome result.
I noticed you use MAPEI NOVOPLAN 2 PLUS Leveler, the only MAPEI types available in my area are "ULTRAPLAN 1 PLUS" and "SELF LEVELER PLUS" Could you please tell me the differences and which one I should Get? THANKS AGAIN! ...(I am installing "Pergo Outlast" Laminate Flooring)
Well he may be saying what if the bevel is a color.. so if you had say a light floor with beige color bevels and you cut the board and make ur own bevel with a small hand planer it won't be the same color as other bevels it will just be the dark inside plank color.
None of these videos show how to do this when your vinyl plank flooring requires attaching it at an angle. Can’t do it like this if you have to attach it at an angle. Because you can’t get it under the trim.
Hi Geezer, read the instruction for your material. Many types of LVP need hammering the ends of planks. I did installation LVP this week - the same type of installation, I used a rubber hammer to lock the ends. Thanks!

What nailer is the best for laminate and vinyl plank on stairs and baseboards, 18 ga.

I noticed you use MAPEI NOVOPLAN 2 PLUS Leveler, the only MAPEI types available in my area are "ULTRAPLAN 1 PLUS" and "SELF LEVELER PLUS" Could you please tell me the differences and which one I should Get? THANKS AGAIN! ...(I am installing "Pergo Outlast" Laminate Flooring)
Ultraplan is premium material and getting ready for installation faster then Novoplan 2 plus: www.specifiedsurfaces.com/self-leveling-underlayments
Did you install wall base, or was it existing?
Yes, I did it after floor installation. Thanks
HI. Where did you find the glue?
Thanks
- Vinyl glue - amzn.to/2Y8vWGm
Also what website did you purchase that adhesive
link in description.
What if it’s a vinyl plank product with beveled edges?
This floor with beveled edges too.
Well he may be saying what if the bevel is a color.. so if you had say a light floor with beige color bevels and you cut the board and make ur own bevel with a small hand planer it won't be the same color as other bevels it will just be the dark inside plank color.
Amazing 🌷🤣
Thanks for watching
Замечательно!!!
Благодарю!

All projects are different, but with an angle connection under the door jamb, you can use the same method.
@@MrYoucandoityourself How? You can't tilt the plank at an angle when it is under the door jamb.
Cut the lock on the board and slide it in with glue.
Josie Mourinho 👈😁😁😁
Yes, I am here!
Let's see your metal jamb saw
Crain jamb saw - amzn.to/3eWafAs
Flooring that's harder to lock together at the ends of the planks isn't as easy when using this method
