Hi all,

i'm installing french doors today, i've removed the old one, installed the cill and the new door and levelled it all.

I purchased the screws that go straight into brick however every part of the frame seems to have metal that i can't get through, they are UPVC but about an inch in there's a metal plate.

All the instruction say to secure 150mm from the top and 600mm centres.

Am i supposed to be drilling through the metal?

photos attached, you can see i've tried a couple of holes in different places.
