Cutting an Exterior Door to Fit

Bob explains how the Owens Corning Basement Finishing System has added a lot of warmth to the Melrose basement. A mud room was also installed in the home, with a six-panel door on the interior. Bob talks with Lou Sandonato from Moynihan Lumber about the small exterior door of the mud room tha thas just been completed. The previous door had been there since 1921 and is now being replaced with an energy-efficient door. Moynihan Lumber modified an existing door to fit the smaller space. Sandonato explains the modifications that were made to make the door fit. The door is a fiberglass Therma-Tru model that was cut down in height and width to fit the existing opening. More information
