Sometimes I want there to be more than one 'thumbs up' to press, when the video and content have been so good. Great viewing!
Louis had me laughing out loud with his antics! There’s never a dull moment with him!

If I were 29 years younger I would be buying one of your lovely renovations! I pray this is snatched up quickly by a family with lots of life to live in it!

They’re not selling this renovation. It’s going to be a rental.

If I had to do the bifold doors, I would have thrown a temper tantrum and toss the doors in the trash. It sure does take a LOT of patience and trial and error to get it to FIT in the tracks and not be crooked from top to bottom. Good job Louis and Edd!!!!!!!!!!
I enjoyed when you PRETENDED you installed the door reversed. Years ago I needed a new Keyed locking door assembly for my Kindergarten back door. That was the door the children used to go outside to play. The school had to call a special installer from the Bd of Ed to come and change out the assembly. He came to my room with a very arrogant attitude, like I was wasting his time, and one two three changed it out, and was about to leave, without trying the door. I said, would you please let me try it before you leave. Sure enough, the door was locked from inside the classroom and we couldn’t GET OUT unless we used the key. But anyone could open it from outside and get in!! He wasn’t a very happy camper, changing it out to the correct way, as if somehow someone else did that to him, and it wasn’t his mistake. Attitude is everything!!! You need a sense of humor to enjoy life. 😊😂🎉
Edd and Louis...GREAT JOB! The doors look fabulous!!!
I think you should email the door manufacturer the link to this episode 😊
That was a nail biting episode! The doors being in really push the renovation forward. Wonder why the door manufacturers don’t send the doors in pieces in the first place with better installation instructions or even an online video. Love Louie’s running commentary with the gestures especially when you found the hinges in the pocket of the bag.
I have developed a huge crush on Louis! He cracks me up! Louis if you ever find yourself in Nashville, I’ll buy you a beer just to say thanks for the laughs!

Edd and Louie, You did a masterful job on that bifold door! Kept thinking that you were going to pinch your fingers! Door looks great and all fingers are accounted for. Good work men!
Seem so complicated to install that door... You are so patient with Louis. Well done! You will find a solution. Good work. 🔆
And I thought I was a champ by installing IKEA cabinet doors!😂 Well done you two!❤️
Louis is a funny guy! I really am glad you have him as part of the team… he is just great!!! ❤
Louie was in great form today, Edd, you better watch him, he’s ❤ eyeballing your fans.😂😂😂😂❤
You did it. Looks great.
What a pig to put in Edd, but I knew you would not be defeated . Well done Edd and Louis. Loved watching THANKYOU Anna Edd and Louis😘
Hey Anna & Edd, You will benefit from a set of cheap air bladder lifts to set doors in the future. We use them all the time in our shop. Works just like a pressure cuff you use to check blood pressure. Slip both under the bottom of a door your either removing or hanging they pump them up. Makes it easy to hang doors! Best, Brian
From where I sit, that was an awesome installation requiring patience, precision and perseverance! Well done Edd and Louis! 👏👏👏
Holy WOW what a job that was!!! Well done both of you! Such patience and persistence and good humor! Good job knowing when to ask the manufacturer. Bless you both! ❤️🤯
Looks great Edd, required perseverance and patience. Such a fiddly job, but well worth it. Waterproof and beautiful, so good to see the little house evolving. Have a great day Anna, Edd and Louis, 👏👏❤️❤️❤️🇦🇺
I’m so glad Louis is there to help you lift these doors this time
Louie is so darn cute. LOL
Wow…..what a difference those doors have made. Heart on sleeve when grinding off that wee extra bit at the bottom!!
Thank you for the running translation, Anna. I'm trying to learn a bit of French, and, from what I can hear of the conversation, plus the translation, I'm beginning to make a bit of progress!
It's such a pain to hang the doors, but when they are up, they are so great looking!!!Wow it's even got the blinds INSIDE the doors, kitties can't mess those up!
That was nerve-wracking! Chapeau!
You know it's serious work when Edd has his glasses on! Well done 👍
We love our bifolds, a great invention. We'll done for fitting them yourself. X
So good that Louie is there to help you today! Louie is fun! All the best. This was some door to hang. Good job guys!!!
When we built our house my husband insisted on hanging all our doors, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM are wonky, goodness me! Great job Edd and Louie, the door looks great! You both have a great working partnership. Louis is so funny how can you not like working with him?
Hola Anna, Edd y Louis, que perfecta colocaron la puerta ventana, luego de un arduo trabajo y asistido por el simpatico de Louis sin necesidad de romper la pared. Y lo que me llamo la atencion es que afuera de la ventana quedo un ambiente mas que podria ser utilizado como un comedor al aire libre. Bueno estimados les enviamos un afectuoso saludo de Graciela y Anibal !!!
Ed that was a work of art well done
Wow, I admire your persistence and patience. Well done. Jobs a goodun. Louie is hilarious with his antics (behind Ed's back)
What a great job Ed & Louie, good team work. Shows us the technical difficulties bravo !!! Just hope the tenants look after and are careful after your hard work 🥰🥰
That back porch has never looked this great, and it's not even done yet!
I could feel that frustration Ed. Between you both you managed finally, well done to the comedy duo 😊
One word! NICE!!!!!
Excellent job done!! I would love to doors like that for my patio! Thank you!!
Well done boys and Anna gets points for knowing where the little bits were 😂🎉❤
Ya know that things are getting serious when Edd puts the glasses on! 😂😂😂
The first leaf should always be fully opened back into the clip at the top that holds it, before sliding the second and third leaf open. This protects the frame and hinge pins from too much load. Some have a catch mechanism in that clip that prevents the first Leaf pulling away as the others open.
I helped my Dad build our family home 28 years ago. I was convinced my name was Dammit during the whole build. It’s easy to lose your cool on hard jobs like Bi-Fold doors etc. I think you guys handled yourselves very well. ( at least what I saw) Thanks again for a great video. Love you guys!!

So true and frustrating at the time. Looking back at least we can laugh at it now!
Looks great Edd, I love the doors.
Those doors are stunning! Brilliant decision!
Patience, patience, OMG! Good job guys! Love the doors, they really look nice. Love you Louis, thanks for the laughs!
Absolutely love how you got that door to work. You remind me of my father.He always figured out a way to get things to work right and looked really good. It takes a lot of ingenuity to figure out how to do something. You should be proud. Love watching!
Edd, you are amazing with how well you renovate. I hope your worker is taking notes. Respect

The doors look fantastic guys! Good thing that’s a walled terrace, the renters can walk around in the nude with all that glass! Cheers Kirk

Did you not watch until the end, where Edd explained the integrated shades? He told you that he will wait until later so the blinds don't get dirty from construction.
When you first started hanging the door I was thinking "Ed top hinge first" and then you started again and did it that way haha. I also find with these if you pin the top hinge and close the door it is easier to jiggle the other hinge pins in. Also easier for the other person to support.
Hello beautiful people 💕 Lui and Ed working hard Building the dream home With lui at the video camera 🎥
I’d call it a tri-fold door! I really like them. Really enjoyed today’s vlog
Oh gosh! Such hard work, but Edd and Louie did a GREAT job and they are a GREAT team!❤ We will miss Louie when he leaves. 😔 He also has an extraordinary sense of humor 😅👍😊👍I love the new sliding door! 👍🥰🌟
This is a wonderful look to the build...bravo!
And in this episode we get to see Edd get unhinged!
Great job, huge difference. 👍
Another difficult task wrestled to the floor by Louis and Edd. Well done chaps! Love the fact that even though Louis is wearing work clothes, his hat and shoes are matching in color. Details!😂
Two thumbs up bifold doors look beautiful it will make the place look so lovely and open. Thank you Edd & Luis.
One aid we used from time to time in commercial carpentry was wedges when hanging doors. You could adjust them with your foot and is helpful in aligning the hinges and assist in holding door still. Great work.
🎊🎉 OMG. You did it. I now know not to attempt to do this myself.😂 Louis you are hilarious & a good match for Edd to work with🛠️🪛🔩

I'm completely exhausted 😅😂

truly find Edd's hard work/determination amazing...also, thank you for the music during the first round of the glass doors, etc.
Ed and Louis that was a very big difficult job. I am glad you sorted the problem out with the doors finding out that you needed to hang them first from the top. Louis your antics are very refreshing and Ed and you have such a wonderful friendship and I reckon that is what makes renovating this house so nice for you and Ed, the fun, laughter and humour keeps you two going. Not a boring renovation at all. Have a lovely day Anna, Ed and Louis. Missed Anna today, though Louis did a good job filming.
You, as a team, get the Golden Patience Palm! Very rarely given - solid 24 carat.
Ed, you do one hell of a good job. Provo.
It’s all good guys, and do excellent work. 🎉❤
This place is turning out great....reminds me of me to never mistrust you vision!!!!
Oh Edd, you know how hard I have been working on getting you a tool sponsor, but after watching you using that tiny little screw driver today I’m thinking about hitting up the Mattel toy company 😂😂😂❤❤❤
Beautiful the bifold doors. Looks amazing 🥰
Anna, your editing was great!! The men did a great job! Like others said, lots of patience!❤❤
Smart and good natured❣️
Thank you for making the translations larger, much appreciated. That was a real learning process, but the doors are perfect. Nice mustache trimming.
Well done…as usual!👏👏👏
Louie you are a very good student learning from a very good man who knows his stuff😊🎉🎉🎉
I was waiting for Anna to say the bits and bobs were with your pencils LOL Nice job! The doors look better than I imagined them to, very classy!
Brav the door looks superbe ! ❤❤
You guys have way too much fun.
Brilliant use for a welding rod!❤Louis…bravo!……I must say Edd the metamorphic changes are truly 🥰 ❤❤❤gorgeous
I had a set in the art room of the school I worked in. I only opened it once ie when I first moved in as a new build, never used them ever as it was facing the direction of the prevailing winds and the papers would blow around or it would let fly birds etc in. The architect who designed the buildings sure got it wrong by placing this bifold in the configuration it was place in Also it got sand in and it was totally pointless for an art room with 32 kids to control. .I love the determination ,both you Ed and Louie had in getting it in . ❤ Its great that where you have it has a great purpose and makes sense. ❤
Eddie I can’t believe the great work you do but even more can’t believe you are a Man City fan, keep the great work up look forward to seeing your next episode
Love Louie!!
Hello all glad to be here😊
Super good job. So much patience! 🕛🕧🕐🕜🕑🕝🕒🕞🕓🕟🕔🕠🕕 No. Not SO much. 🥳
What a job! How you 2 are still smiling & laughing after that is a miracle!
You should have titled this one "Abandoned House Thriller!" Crowbars and and glass usually don't go well together. I was on the edge of my seat thinking you'd either hit a door with the crowbar, or twist the frame, making the glass shatter. I love the mini blinds between the glass. I have one door with those and they are great!
Happiness ,you did it ❤
WOW the bifold glass doors really open up the space. FANTASTIC
Wow that looked like a very difficult job ! You are amazing ED with the help of Louie of course well done!!😊
Great accomplishment
Loving the doors, but boy what a palaver to put in!
bifold doors look amazing 🤩
What a team.❤
Fantastic 👏👏👏👏👏😍
Very interesting. And Louis was a bonus. Thank you!
No need to separate the doors, just support the second and third door on blocks of wood, then first door. This will make all 3 doors at the correct height. Offer up the first door to the wall and attach. All 3 doors are then attached.
Those doors are even nicer than I imagined.
Seriously, you both played nice, if it was at my place the swearing would've been going on long ago lol. 👍😂
Good job!❤
Not a pro and you got them installed, so bravo. However, the proper way to open and close these types of bifold doors is to open the single door and latch it against the second door. You can see the latch at the top of door 1 and door 2. Once they are latched, you can unlock the lock on doors 2 and 3 and swing it all the way open. To close you do the reverse. Close 3 and 2 and lock them in place, the unlatch doors 2 and 1 and close and lock door 1. This prevents the weight of door 1 from pulling down on the upper track. Also looks like you need to do a few more minor adjustments to the door so it is level all around and double check the frame mounting screws.
