However, there some folks out there for whom a single Doodle simply won’t do! It’s not enough Doodle for them. These pups are simply too adorable to resist and need to be treated with as much love and resect as humanly possible. Take a look at a Doodle and it’s easy to understand why. Make sure it’s tight against the back side of the doors in closed position, this will get the doors to close perfectly.Everyone loves a Doodle. With the doors in closed position, attach any small piece of wood block (1 x 1) under the header. It is also recommended that you add a door stopper to prevent the doors from swinging into the shed. Swing the door to test out alignment, adjust as needed. Then lift the door in place at closed position, screw in the hinges onto the casing. Make sure the hinges are straight, yielding a smoother swing.Īttach the hinges onto the door with screws first. With both completed doors in closed position, use a pencil to mark up the metal hinge locations on both the door and the casing. Then drill pilot holes and insert 2″ screws to secure in place.
Place trims flat onto the siding panel to ensure they are square. Materials for one door: cut two 2 x 6 lumbers to 3′, cut a single 2 x 6 lumber to 2′ 5″, and cut two 2 x 4 lumbers to 5′ 6″. Hold them up to make sure they fill the entire door opening without any sizable gaps. Cut out both doors to size from a single piece of T1-11 exterior siding panel. Drill pilot hole and insert 3 1/2″ screws to secure in place.įinally, time to work on the actual doors! First, measure the door opening again to confirm height and width, sometimes this can change slightly from craftsmanship. It’s important for the casings to flush with the door opening, so the door opens and closes smoothly. You can use a Sabre saw to cut through T1-11 fairly easily.Ĭut a single 2 x 6 lumber to 6′ 7″, and cut two 2 x 4 lumber to 6′ 5 3/4″.
