Hi,

I intend to replace an improvised Yorkshire light over a doorway. I've skethed what it might look like in section.

I plan to buy pre-rebated timber for the top and two sides, the bottom of the frame will be square in section so rainwater can spill over the beading. Does that seem reasonable?

I hope to join the wood square (just butt the wood up together) with woodscrews and glue, would that do the trick or does it require a more fancy joint?

Also :

What should I join the flashing to the wood with?
What should I bed/seal the glazing on?
Can anyone recommend a sealant for around the beading?
Would 6mm toughened glass be ok?

Thanks in advance!
