    Default Emergency Oopsy. Easy to remove stationary part of sliding glass door, or just remove a window frame

    Large item coming, my 36 I thought standard front door with the wood lip is like 35 and a quarter even with removing swinging metal door.

    Remind me, sliding in at an angle buy me a little room? (Cube 6ft x36 wide x 42 tall.)

    Imagine taking slider out is a much more major project than the large window frame above my deck at waist level in my living room? Anyone good at that in an emergency (this afternoon) or know a good how to lol......

    It'd much easier to remove standard entry doors than to pull anything with a nail flange.

    Remove brick mold and trim then run a Sawzall around the perimeter then slide the whole door out. Vs as foxtrot described pulling siding.

    Sliding glass doors don't disassemble. The frame of the stationary side is usually part of the whole thing

    My very magnaminous FIL was able to come and pop out the window with no damage, move the tank in, and then I gotta reseal it later.

    Thank you so much to COcz one of the members here who tagged along with my reef folk to get this monster in. Was really sweating dropping this $1,700 tank,
