Hi All
Questions 2 of 3
I am about to replace the channels for the rear sliding glass, the rotted originals had been tacked in, I want to screw it into place, I have experimented with an off cut and can screw down till the flat head is just below the level of the material so the glass will not foul it, but if I over tighten it will just pull right through.
Anyone had any practical experience and can offer advice?
Thank you very much for reading

I used small brass CSK screws, with brass washers

I used staples into the side of runners two years ago. This avoided any chance of blocking the water drain channels. It's worked ok since.

If you drive the screws in at an angle into the corner of the runner, they'll pull in nicely and not foul the glass. This way it also pulls the channel into the corner of the wood rebate. I did mine this way and it worked a treat!

Thank you for your comments, I was also worried about partially blocking the water drain channels, I think I’ll try to angle them in as suggested.
Again thanks
