Weekend Warrior Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 My soft Bits half doors have arrived but thought of drilling the body to fit them has got me a bit nervous. I’m sure it can’t be that hard too do but I’ve been known to dangler up the easiest of things. Has anyone who’s fitted them got any advice or tips (come to think of it an idiots guide ) as they have no instructions , Thanks Steve Quote
Weekend Warrior Posted January 24, 2020 Author Posted January 24, 2020 No one fitted any ? I was expecting them to have come with the press studs fitted ,but you get a fitting kit with the press studs in pieces .Had the studs been pre fitted I could have offered and levelled the doors up and had a rough idea of where to drill . How do the studs fix to the doors ,do you need a special tool .how many per door and how far from the outside edge ? Quote

If I remember rightly you have some canvas half doors ,did you fit your own studs or were they already on .Is one on each corner enough ? Quote
Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup) Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 I used these for my doors. My doors are basically the same as the full doors but the bottom half only. I have two at the front and two on the bottom edge. The two at the front allow me to just unclip the other bottom two and the door opens like a proper door. 2 Quote
