External door frame repair

Post by tonywild1985 »

Hi all.

Thought I would attach some pictures of the repair I did to see what you think. This is the first frame repair I have done. (Still need a little filling at the bottom)

Bet you're glad you decided to do a patch repair rather than trashing the entire frame like you originally intended
