Hello folks,
I am about to fit myself a UPVC door for the first time and am just looking for advice if possible.
It is a back door with sill. I know I need to put a bead of silicone on the sill towards the inner edge before screwing to the frame to allow drainage, but what about sealing around the frame...
The ground slopes down a little towards the door so it is a wet spot. Do you just put a bed of silicone on the ground and then sit the frame with sill in this and then seal around with silicone gun after fixing/foaming?
Also if finishing the door with trims do you seal the door frame and then put trims on or put trims on and then seal around these instead?
Thanks.
