I know this has absolutely nothing to do with food or cooking, but the collective knowledge here at NCT is staggering, and I'm sure someone has some sage advice.
I'm thinking about replacing a sliding glass door with a set of French Doors (Christmas present for DW). The job seems pretty straightforward, but after many years of home improvements, I've learned that there is always an "X" factor-that thing, or things you didn't count on, or think about in the planning stage.
Other than lining up help to handle it, are there any "unknowns" I should be aware of? Since winter is right around the corner, I would prefer this to be a one day job, at least closing it up. The trim isn't an issue.
Thoughts? Personal experiences?
