Each of the exterior doors will be made for the space it will go into because they all measure out a bit different from each other. Start with the inside frame, using the Kreg Jig to attach at corners & making sure its square. Or as square as can be.
Then add the inside plywood and the outside T1-11.
The X on the outside is more for support and to prevent future hanging/dragging than decoration but its very pretty.
We used 1x4's from the pallet the Comfort Stall mats & roofing came on, great way to upcycle.
Liquid Nails & real nails hold it together.
The hardware for the doors, large heavy duty hinges, locks for each door & hooks to attach them to the outside when open so they don't swing freely.
This tool gets the screws in fast & tight.
The finished product.
Now just 8 more to do because there will be top doors also.
The inside lock.
We put a 2x4 inside the door jamb so the door wouldn't stress the hinges.
