PieEater3142 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 HI all, I am currently building up my project doors and having a bit of a struggle trying to determine what I need to get the glass in. At the moment I have all the mechanics for the lock, catch, window winder etc. so everything insinde the door and the glass. The question is, what do I need to actually fit the glass in the door frame? Are there side runners or is it all handled by the rubber trim? So far I believe I need items 10-16 in: door_rubbers.pdf But do I also need items 2-7 in: window_surround.pdf The doors are complete but I can't tell if these items are part of the door or something that sits inside the door frame? Cheers, James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKev Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 The first pdf details the plastic pieces that fill the approx 1" gap in the door metalwork. they have a kind of squared off S-shaped profile looking from the ends. The second pdf details the actual channel (about 1/2" wide on the outside, with a glass thickness channel in foamy stuff) for the window to slide up and down in. These are U-shaped section (or C-section if you prefer) when viewed from the end. Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieEater3142 Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 Thanks guys. Damn it was a pricey purchase yesterday.... nearly £200 from craddocks. Still work is picking up on the 110 project again so can't complain, other than next time I do a project I do it in a garage not outdoors....
