I don't think that I have really been overly happy with how I have flashed these kinds of doors and lets face it: There isn't much to work with in the first place. When I first started doing these doors, I just caulked, with Geocel behind the brick molding and then around it when the door was done. Now I use 3' Grace Ice & Snow Sheild (applied right to the sheathing and t he top piece under the housewrap),as well I also caulk with Geocel under the sill, and with flashing there, too. But, there must be a better way and I would very much like to do this better. There is so much talk about doing the windows better, which is great, but what about the important front door? The house that I am building now has made me revisit the issue again.
So. what does everyone else do?
So, I am really interested in reading what your first hand experience has been and what has worked.
