Well done, mate. Let us know when you update with material list! Look forward to replacing my own shed doors.
It should be up. Thanks for watching.
So if the wind closes the door while you're in it, you are stuck!!
Lol,.. I’ll add a pull chain from the inside in the final video. Unless I get stuck inside
How do you prevent rodents from getting in the shed through gaps in the door? I have a similar style door and with the changes in temperature the gaps expand or contract
Great question…. That should make a great video. Let me look into it. Thanks
Metal plating on the threshold/sill usually helps. At least down at the bottom where they're most likely to try and slip in. Metal is much harder for their little claws to grab onto in order to climb up and in. It also serves as an edge protector!
When will the list of material be available?
Apparently never
Are you blind?
Sorry, it took so long... it should be there.
Sorry buddy, I forgot to add the link... it's there now. Thanks for watching.
@@EverydayShed anyone who has half a brain could see all the material needed simply by watching the video
Great video!!! I have a question about the spacers. If you use 1/2" spacers, wouldn't the doors bang into each other? b/c if I measure the width minus 1/2" (divided x2) to build the doors, wouldn't I need 1/4" spacers? I'm just checking b/c I'm about to build my doors and I want to make sure I double check these measurements. Thanks!!!!
I made a new video and I used 1/4 inch for each door. Total l 1/2in gap… that worked much better.
This was very helpful. What thickness plywood did you use? Thanks!!
I used regular roof OSB 7/16"
Thanks very much!
Love the video. Exactly what I was looking for and your explanation of everything is very easy to follow. I had an idea of how to construct but you added to finer details
Thanks for the feedback!
Very nice, well-done video. Love those hinges... and clamps are so helpful. I am building my 8x12 shed. I framed for a standard pre-hung 3' door, then I shopped and checked the prices. Maybe I buy one for $300 or just build one like you did. I'm already going over budget ( I don't even have a budget). Do you hate cutting plywood with a skill saw? I sure do. I think before I start building my house next year, I will build a radial arm saw that spans at least 8'. Then just throw the plywood on the table and let the motorized saw do the rest while I stand back and watch.
It’s not easy to cut plywood with circular saw, but if you use clamps and a straight edge it’s okay… now, the important tip is to have a new blade. Good luck on your build.
Excellent video! Well Done!
Thx!
2:01 it's a rectangle not a square

@@alphonso.digitalcool !!! Thanks for correcting.
Thanks for the correction.
nice👌
Thanks 😊
Thank you for sharing the door dimensions verses the opening . 3/4 less on top and 1/2 less for the side.
Yes, i hope it helps.
So 3/4 less than opening height and 1/2 less than opening width and then divide the remaining width distance by two to get each doors width measurements?
Yes…. Exactly that!
@@EverydayShed thanks so much for the fast reply!
I could not figure out how the front of a shed gets made until now... Thanks a lot dude ☘️
Thank you.
Shed door
Thank you!
Well done. Those look like great sturdy doors to go onto a well built shed. Keep it up!
Thanks, will do!
I want to build a double door but I have one problem and hope you can help me. The left door the ground slops up and I need the door swing up so it won't drag on the cement.
Any ideas? Thanks
That's a trick one, so like a swing up door type? Will a garage style door be a better solution?
@@EverydayShed I'm wondering if I install the left hing on a angle if that will work ?
Good information 🎉
Thanks 🙌
👍
Thanks
Thank you!! I’ve been thinking about replacing the door on my shed. This helps a lot!!
Glad it was helpful!
what about overlap so rain don't blow in.
good point! My next door shed will definitely have overlaps. I like your idea.
How did you square those doors up?
I used the actual OSB as a guide to keep the framing square.
Thanks nice video 🙏
Awesome! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Great work Thank you
Awesome... thanks for watching.
Best house l have seen so far
Awesome!
Good video
Thank you!
Keep it up!
Thanks!!!
I have about a thousand mice that would love to live in that shed.
Oh no!!! That’s not good
Criminals can gain access by unscrewing your hinges and stealing your chainsaw.
For sure… there are all kinds of bad people out there.
Was thinking the same thing. Need to secure it with round head bolts and nuts on the inside so it cannot be unscrewed.
Half lap joints would make it even stronger, but your design should work fine with the panels sandwiching the framing.
Also, with that style latch you need to drill a hole and thread some string/cordage through and tie it to the top of the latch to prevent getting locked in. I've typically seen people use a barrel latch on the top of the left side door to attach it to the top of the door frame for added stability.
Great points, in next shed I’ll try to incorporate some of these. Thanks
skilsaw not circular!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SKIL is a brand.
Hahaha.. Sure..
