Fitting window and upvc doors (first time)

[paulwilson]

Alright chaps, I am currently doing out my kitchen and have bricked up my side window and have moved it to the rear.
I have purchased a new window which is 1500mm x 900mm.
I have bricked up the area of the window and the opening measures 1510mm x 910mm, the window has an opening window on the right and fixed window on the left.

I have outward opening doors which are a straight swap for my inward opening patio doors.

I have a general idea of what im doing but I am not 100% confident but saving £130.00 for a couple of hours work inspires me to do it myself.

I would just like some general tips if anyone can help me I would be very apreciative, I need to go out and get some frame fixing screws and was wondering where the best place for me to go is and also some packers.

I realise I need to get the frame spot on square and level and chocked into place before fixing the frame to the brickwork, with only 5mm either side will there be any need to use expanding foam or will I just need exterior silicone?

Sorry for the long winded post and like I said thanks for any help, kind regards Paul...
