Thanks for this video, I was trying to read what Lowe's said on their website and it was like reading Greek. This was very simple, straightforward, and turns out I was doing it "almost" correctly... so I'm glad I double-checked. :)
Doesn't show clearly what you mean by measuring the depth of the jamb. The linked document, which is supposed to go into more detail, doesn't mention measuring the depth at all.
I just installed Ken weld sliding patio door with built in blinds and either the paper work blew off in hauling home or it got misplaced, there was a couple stickers that got scraped off but how do you remove the red plastic pieces so I can lower the blinds.
It's not clear i didn't know where did you measure you circled the 72 inches but it was 69.5 and I guess there is no need to make it difficult by measuring from each corners
When you bend the tape measure at the end we can’t tell what the measurement is, explain that, and zoom the camera in so we can see what you’re doing! And SLOW down!
Why do you need to know the measurement of that particular window? That’s not your window... maybe if you want to order a replacement window for them I guess.
I'm also wondering this. I have a window that I've torn the jambs off from the interior and I'm confused. Do I measure the rough opening of the cut out for the window? It's a singlewide mobile home with the aluminum factory windows. (Cheap)
Britt Parrish thank you for you input. I am a home owner and was just about to replace my windows myself after watching this video as he made it seem so easy. I will hire a professional, and not through Lowe’s or Home Depot.
The graphics were more useful than watching the dude's backside. You could have brought in the camera for a close up view of the actual measurements. Tip: never use a dark window frame for camera work without proper lighting.
@@andrewm2786 and the bottom of the replacement window will be sloped to match the sill or will some type of filler need to be installed to make up for the space between the sloped sill and flat window bottom?
@@pkey749 they pretty much all come sloped, the new window will probably be a little bit smaller than the old window. The rough opening on the bottom will be flat so it'll just sit on top of it regardless of the slope
After tornado contractor put jenweld windows in. Hate them, glue all over that can't be remover. Hard to clean. Plus because contractor bought them, I can't even get any satisfaction from factory.
