Which came first the chicken or the......

[bkahler]

......in this case I'm referring to the door latch mechanism or the window parts?

 

I'm ready to start assembling the doors.  Should I install the door latch mechanism first or install all of the door glass components first?  Through searches I've found what sequence to install all of the glass components but I haven't found whether the door latch components should be put in before or after the glass components.

 

Thanks!

I believe you'll want the latch mechanism in first as it needs to hook around the window track to get into place and the glass may be in the way for that to happen if the windows are installed first. 

I can't confirm that, but this is how my memory is telling me it would work.

yes latch first IMO

Thank you both for the quick responses.  

 

I hope to start building the doors this weekend.  I have a nice big dining table that will make for a perfect assembly station
