How To Brace A Doorway

This is Ben Ingham with Expert Village talking about a walk out basement. It is just the way to get the border in place and get the block tap into the place in a way to clean out the joints so you have to have a little trowel when that is all over with. The if you wanted up here for a header that is something going over the door this is 2x2 angle lined a quarter of a inch thick so it is very gage. When that goes in place you have to score the cinder block so they fit the angle line but that make a very rigid type door and I will fill in with wood around that to seal in and make a finish door for the sealer. I would have a double door that would open up.
