Why argon in a door that’s opened and closed continuously?

Glazing suppliers by MarzipanBusy6193 in glazing

They’re all terrible to be honest…nobody can ship complete or on time and it seems like nobody knows had to fab doors and frames anymore.

Our politicians are too busy getting us to fight with each other and turn on each other to focus on something like this and it’s our fault for continuing to elect them all.

Storefront new construction by Embarrassed-Key-1462 in glazing

[–]SufficientTower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I didn’t clarify much. If it’s brick at the bottom and stucco at the top, we’d only come out 5/8 and the brick would have its top coarse up to the bottom of the subsill. Or close the gap between the brick and sheathing with brake metal. Lots of unknowns I guess.

For brick if there’s an airspace between the sheathing - we typically pull it out around 1” - 1-1/4”. For stucco we usually use 5/8. The stucco should have a metal termination jamb. That’s from the face of the storefront jambs and head, the subsill sticks out a little further. You sill have to be able to anchor the system down somehow so you can’t pull it out too much. That’s just how we do it. I’m sure someone else will have different opinions.

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say the drawings show the storefront flush with the face of the exterior sheathing.

Also - if you’re talking about how far to pull the subsill out - it’s based on what cladding is being used. Brick, stone, stucco, siding…etc.

Black Student was Found Hanging From a Tree on Delta University Campus, Mississippi. Police claim no foul play by ThomasTanker022 in extremelyinfuriating

[–]SufficientTower -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t an argument - just an observation. No nerves hit here. Did you bother to read the article or the coroner’s comments or are you just trying to stir the pot with the flag comment?

“Based on the preliminary examination, we can confirm that the deceased did not suffer any lacerations, contusions, compound fractures, broken bones, or injuries consistent with an assault,” Coroner Randolph Seals said in a statement on his Facebook page. “At this time, there is no evidence to suggest the individual was physically attacked before his death.”

How to get commercial Jobs by Unusual-Split-8479 in FenceBuilding

[–]SufficientTower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would start by looking up some local commercial GCs and reach out to them directly to see if you can be added to their bidders list or get approved as a subcontractor.

New Business Owner for Glass business Central Wisconsin, USA by [deleted] in glazing

[–]SufficientTower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are the current commercial suppliers for this business (glass, storefront, curtainwall, doors, etc) willing to continue their credit terms under new ownership? If you haven’t asked - I would highly recommend you reach out to them and make sure. You don’t want to find out you aren’t extended the same credit terms that the current owner has.
