Hi folks,
Happy 3rd Jan and all of that :)
Is there some sort of black art to making a doorframe to take 2 doors? Spent ages building a frame that has 90 degree corners where it should, upright verticals where it should, and a nice top plate to take the tracks for these 2 bi-fold doors. Top plate and bottom plate checked for vertical alignment (*nearly* spot on, only a couple of mm out), left and right checked with a straightedge and a spirit level etc. They had to be packed a lot because of the state of the wall, but they're vertical.
Right hand door fits and works perfectly, left hand doesn't - it wants to be nearly 2 inches further out at the top centre when it's vertically correct (with spirit level)
top plate < misalignment occurs here
+========================+ | || | | || |Me no understand. I can even put a straightedge along the tracks at the top and they're even. If I put both doors flat on the floor (where they were painted) they're not warped.
Is there a 'secret angle' I need to discover? Fsckin' B&Q wood......
-- cheers,
