GEORGE ENGLE: On behalf of Expert Village, my name is George Engle with Mr. Fix-It Handyman, Inc., here in Miami, Florida, and today I'm going to be showing you how to install a bi-fold door. Okay, these are some of the supplies that we're going to need to install our bi-fold door. Comes with a track, of course, anchor for the floor. You're going to need some tile bits to go through the tile, because this floor, in this case, we do have tile on the floor. So, we're going to be putting a one hole into the floor to anchor the door to the bottom and secure it well. Some dry wall screws, to set the track up across the top, drill bits for pilot holes, concrete bits to go after once we go through the tile, and a power drill, preferably one that has the hammer function because we are going to be using this to drill through concrete underneath the tile. Okay, first you have to make sure you track and everything is the correct size for the opening; otherwise, of course, it won't go in. We'll show you how to do that now.
