Synopsis

One of the hottest home improvement trends is "daylighting" - remodelling to increase the number and size of windows and light-transmitting doors in a borne. In addition, simple repair and replacement of doors and windows is a perennially popular borne improvement project. This book is an all-in-one reference that provides everything a homeowner needs to know about choosing, repairing, replacing, and installing all types of windows and doors in all kinds of structures - houses, garages, sheds and outbuildings. It includes information on exterior doors, interior passage doors, sliding patio doors, French doors, skylights, and basement egress windows. At the heart of the book are lengthy sections giving step-by-step directions for installing new windows and doors of all types - either to replace existing units, or to frame and install new windows and doors in an existing wall. Home security gets its share of attention, with tips on how to make windows and doors more secure. Readers will also learn how to install new digitally keyed locksets.
