I've a set of doors recently installed, and to get the right threshold internally they were raised up by 35mm on packers. now there's a gap beteween the sill and bricks.

Any ideas on best way to fill this? sand & cement, or expanding foam and mastic, or just some grey trim?


Thanks

I would go for grey trim myself, I did a similar thing on my French doors with some black trim from Trimseal.
I also drilled a few neat holes to replace the air vent.
 
Thanks! Do those wooden packers need removing or can they just stay there and be used to fix the trim to?
 
Leave them and fix with screws and coloured screw caps if you can get them to match, or just blobs of adhesive or silicone perhaps.

Managed to dig up some before and after photos from when the patio doors were swapped for French doors. Might help.
