How to Install a Cable Railing. The poplar newel post that slips over an existing newel post and the other wood hand rail sections were fabricated by a local mill shop in Utah.

The cable railing system was manufactured by Feeney.

Other tools and materials for this project, including wood glue and construction adhesive are available at home centers.

How to Understand PVC Ventilation

Richard pointed out that modern code requires PVC vent pipes and fittings to come from the same manufacturer and be rated for venting. In this case, he demonstrated vent piping from IPEX.

How to Update a Flat Panel Hollow Core Door. Updating a hollow core door can save some time trying to hang a completely new door and can save some money compared to buying a new door as well.

To add the fake panels, Nathan used some molding, which can be found at any home center. He secured those to the door using Gorilla wood glue and a 20V Max Cordless Bradnailer, which is manufactured by Dewalt. Nathan then painted the door using Behr Marquee in Ultra Pure White. He also replaced the old brass hardware with a bedroom/bathroom door knob, which is manufactured by Kwikset.

How to Paint Vinyl Shutters. Mauro recommends numbering each shutter as it is removed.

He washed the shutters using a biodegradable cleaner, in this case Simple Green, mixed with water to remove the dirt.

Mauro chose an exterior paint in Hale Navy for the shutters, manufactured by Benjamin Moore. He applied it with an airless paint sprayer.

Other materials for this project including respirators and drop cloths are available at home centers and paint suppliers.
