Patio/Kitchen doors

Featured Replies

Afternoon all. 

A novice needs some help (please go easy!)

I got some patio doors from Freecycle hoping to save myself some money. Myself and a friend installed them but having never done it before I think we've put them in the wrong way round. Every time it rains, we're getting leaks into the kitchen. 

 

Can anyone confirm we've messed up or is there something wrong with the doors seal etc?

Hi, yes they are the wrong way, made to open outwards. Drain holes in bottom of frame will be draining water inside

Thank you. We naturally assumed hinges in the inside. That'll learn us!

Thanks. Turned them around and they work perfectly without any leaks.
