Hi all,

I need to install a tumble drier vent for a relative. Kitchen has a upvc
back door with large half upvc/half glass side panel. Basically looks like
another door but doesn't open.

The bottom half of this has polystyrene (sp?) sandwiched between inner and
outer skins. Any reason why I can't fit a vent through this panel?

TIA.

found out fitting a feckin cat flap to a upvc door...

i found that too when fitting a cat flap, but the metal wasnt too thick, and
the jigsaw cut thru the lot with just one blade change...snapped when trying
to go round too tight a corner,

your toolbox ;)
