The New Door

Our new patio door was installed today, even with it being a little on the chilly side, it went very well, the men did a great job. It wasn't a surprise to me to not see insulation in the wall once the drywall was pulled away. After the new door was installed they took out the old one, framed it in and started the siding. While everything was open one of the outside lights was relocated to the other side of the new door. As the guys were outside working on the siding, I started with the insulation, and vapor barrier, the rest of the wall will get tied in soon but for now this is a start. Here is how the day went.


Drywall down, no insulation.



Window is out.
Another look.


Opening made for door.


Door opening cut, time for lunch.


New door installed and old one framed in.


Sheathing and foam added to match the existing wall.
Ready for me.
Insulation in and vapor barrier up.

New lights in place and some siding up.
