A number of screws are required to fix the Valterra A77012 Interior Entrance Door Window Frame The coarsest thread for drywall is 1/2".
In this case, we reused the screws that came off the original frame. I believe they are pretty common screws that are available at Home Depot or Lowe's.
Nevertheless, I ordered both inner and outer frames, so I will need to confirm. Creating the new pattern was a great idea as it was totally different from the original. In my case, because they are brittle from the sun, my trailer was from 1984. Therefore, I would order both for just a few extra dollars. Kijiji was the place where I sold the old one. Are there any advantages to ordering on a rather than a more frequent basis if shipping is included?
The glass was frosted and not clear. It was ordered with brown trim. In addition, if you can find a glass supplier close by, it shouldn't be difficult to find a clear piece of glass.

The outer window frame has just arrived and when I opened it I saw it said both the inner and outer should be purchased The significance of this will soon become apparent. As well as the outer, I ordered the inner. Although it is nearly perfect, there are a few little differences from the original window frame The original had four screw holes each side, and these have just three. It's for this reason that both are needed. The brand does not seem very reliable due to the mere three screw holes per side across each edge. On top and bottom, three is fine. However, up the sides, it is necessary to have four in order to pull the inner and outer sides Even after tightening mine down, there is still a gap between the screws on one side where if it came with four screws there would no longer be a For now, I need to put an extra layer of silicone around the edges of the glass against the Additionally, you will need to hold onto your old screws because they are NOT included with the This means that if you change the color of your window frames, your screws will not match, the new frames will not be the same color. The wise way.
We replaced both the interior and exterior frames after they were damaged by the Arizona sun and heat. Our decision to go brown was due to it being a lower cost and just a different look. All of these products come with frames only, which do not include screws or sealant or butyl Due to the fact that butyl tape must be added during installation, it may be a frustrating process. Tape is not forgiving, so you might want a second pair of hands, but if you temporarily tape the glass to the frame, you won't need it. Ensure butyl tape does not get too hot prior to installation to ensure the tape is flexible. Knives can cause stretching when cutting the butyl, so use scissors instead of a knife. A good idea is to look up RV installation videos on YouTube if you are not mechanically inclined. Note that the number of screw holes is not the same as the original frame, so be sure to get both sides of the You need to get the correct width of butyl tape so that installation will be easier and cleanup less time consuming.
If you want to replace the window on your trailer, you need both sides, because this new one does not match the old one's screw holes.
It is best to double check the hole pattern on your current frame or buy both sides like I had to.
This trim ring has both an inside ring as well as an outside ring. There were no screws or sealant included with mine. New dicor tape was applied to the walls and old screws were used. It's easy to install, but you need to have a helper or something to hold the glass while you do it. An inexpensive suction cup tool from Harbor Freight worked well for me. Just a few minutes to do the two doors and now the yellowed trim rings are a memory. The trailer looks much more pleasing.
I was just what I needed and it came on time. That replacement was a welcome change from my old yellowing one. It is important to replace inside and outside together, as you might not be able to get them to match up otherwise. Because the old one on the inside had a different hole pattern, I had to order the inside separately and wait for it to arrive.
I appreciated the quality of the work and how well it fitted on my camper.
The old project was cracked and a new one is complete.
