Homemaker to Handyman *Replacing a manufactured home door - Episode 45
Replacing a door can be a daunting task for anyone. This door finally came out as soon as I found all of the hidden screws! It sure feels good to have a fully functional and secure door.

First time seeing one of your videos. You are such a beautiful soul. I thank God for people like you. Great job my friend 🧡
I really needed this video, as I am installing mine all by myself. Extremely helpful 👍 Thanks a million! Love seeing a woman do this more than anything it brought out my confidence.

@@chrissy1310 It went extremely well. The video got me back on track when I would've given up. Seriously this lady hits on each place i needed advice, or thought theres something I did wrong turns out was difficult for ANYONE with no experience. Watch the vid, while you are doing it. All teaching is a 3 step process ... Step 1 Show how its done... In our case watch the whole vid ...a few times if necessary Step 2 do it together,...in our case watch vid while doing it, Step 3 you do it on your own...towards the end and the next one I do probably wont need the vid.
Wow. Great job. I couldn't do that alone. Looking good!!❤
I appreciate all the work you put into removing/installing new door. I also love the channel image, very nice! I will be removing my sunroom door very shortly and the issues you had I will keep them in mind! Thanks

Yay! Practice makes perfect; door number two should be easy. We didn't get to see if the new door will open and close. Square and plumb? That caulk tape is great, for windows, too. One more good job checked off the list!

About 2 inches. They don't have to be super long. Just make sure they are long enough to go through the frame and still have at least 1 inch to go into the jam.

Good job! I have the same task coming. Door probably won't arrive until January, so it will be frozen finger time when it comes to doing the replacement. I was surprise to see you carry the door yourself. I'll be getting a 38"x78" door. I might be wrong but I was thinking I saw a weight of about 200 pounds? I was going to get a door with glass in it, but being a trailer door, I can imaging the difficulty in getting new glass if it gets broken. Probably have to purchase a whole new door if that happens.
@asliceofheavenhomestead3559

It was heavy, but not 200 pound heavy. I would say around 100. I went with as much glass as possible because I love a bright house and a door can let in a lot of natural light. Good luck on your project!

I have a nice 12x40 elevated deck in front with stairs with a landing half way up feeding that deck. The door need macro get up there. Maybe if I offer him $20 he’ll help me heft it up there? Lol

I went to a local manufactured home dealer. A normal door at home depot would not have fit. I would research anything locally first.
Where did you find your new doors? Did you have to special order them? How expensive were they?

I found them at my local manufactured home store. They, unfortunately, were a bit more pricy than something at home depot,but I had no choice. The home depot doors did not come in the right size. This door cost about $450(home depot doors around $375),so it didn't break the bank 😏.

How many hours did this take you to replace the door from start to finish?

It took me a few hours because it was my first time, there were so many screws in odd places (the old door was broken and screwed shut), and I was working the camera. The second door that I did later in a different video, on took less than an hour from start to finish.

Hi auntie mel

Honestly, it was my first time doing it, and there weren't any other videos for a manufactured home door. I wouldn't do it differently though. I wanted to make sure that the frame and door stayed aligned. If I took out the door while I was putting up the frame, I fear it may have warped and I would have a bigger mess to deal with once the frame was stuck to the wall. Yes, the for was heavy, but I could manage it by myself 😏.
