Doors Part 1

 After initially fitting 1 door early on and realizing all it did was get in the way it came off again until now 

The door has an internal handle only which struggles to return on its own so as with other bloggers I attached a spring to the mechanism.

Spring fitted 

 Next job was to fit the door rubber to see if it fitted snug all the way round the door recess and found that it didn't out with the drum sander to smooth out the ridges and good to go .

Then its a case of assembling the door which is straight forward and then fitting which is not .After messing about for a while unable to get the door to shut realized that the cap heads holding the door lock were catching swapped those for countersink and getting on a lot better..

Just a case of trial and error moving the hinges about and the door lock in its mountings and then taking it off as not enough room to move the lock etc .

Eventually got the door right with the exception of one bolt that has to be left loose sa will need a spacer under that .

Door fitted (will it still fit with the carpet in ??)
