September 23, 2006















We measured, cut, and installed 1x4 trim board at all corners.
















Finishing the door installation is where we spent the most of our remaining time today. An installation flange (gray) was inserted into a track on three sides of the door.

















A gap below the treshold needed to be filled with concrete. Screws were placed into the holes at the threshold and would be set in place with the concrete. We installed wood forms around the threshold to hold back the concrete mix.
















The concrete was prepared in a pan and poured into an area dug out in front of the door.

















The concrete was set sloped down so that rain water would drain away from the door.

















Caulking and painting are next.
