Thank you for those instructions on building the doors in place. I have just completed a couple of 3x1,5 meter doors, and thanks to building them like this, there was no sag, and I can have minimal clearence to get them to seal up for a insulated winter garage. I had professional gates, but decided to build to make full use of the height by building doors, also they fit the esthetics of the farm better 🙌🏻 The only difference was that i wanted panel on the outside as well to insulate them, so i fastened the structure to the framing first, laid panel at the front, and then installed the hinges, and released the screws from the structure, with only one bolt on each arm of the hinge, and then fitted the rest. Perfect fitting! 👌🏻

My elders taught me differently... {Maybe better...?! Who knows?!} Of course getting the load bearing surfaces of the pintles as level as possible to each other is essential. As best I can tell, he did a very good job with that. My methodology... Barn doors should always swing out! Level the 2x6 rails & hinge straps (yours are oblique*), then drill all holes in the hinges through the 2x6 rails. Insert bolts in all the holes (to keep the hinges in position). You only need to put one bolt all the way through with a nut & washer on the hinge at this point, (like you did). Leave all the other bolts flush to the face of the 2x6 rails. {I install all the bolts w/ nuts, washers and thread-locker. I then cut any excess bolt off for the lowest profile possible at the nut. As I lay on planking I counter bore each nut location in the planking and 'hide' the nuts behind the boards. It looks better and prevents tampering with the nuts. Lay out and transfer the "reveal" gap to both sides of the 'Title' (top) Rail and the 'Channel' (bottom) Rail. There is method to this madness... Read on. Now is when you want to mark the braces! They can be temporarily attached to the rails for marking as demonstrated, however by marking the braces at this point you can easily scribe the braces directly to fit the rails very accurately without using a "90 degree pencil". You can install the braces now or later as you wish. I choose to install the braces at this point by placing one long screw through each toe of the braces to hold them in place as I lay on planking. Also you can better see where to install the brace screws as you lay on the planking. (i.e. - No chalk-line to stain the wood!) If you did not choose to hide the nuts & bolts behind the face boards; after installation of the face boards, remove each hinge bolt in-turn, drill through the face boards and re-install the bolts. Proceed to finish the door as demonstrated. Some may choose a different method of separating the door panels at the "reveal". I use a sharp hand saw for better accuracy. It just looks better. Gravity - Not the 2x6 holds the hinges in the down position. They can be in any position you configure the bolt holes to, when you drill the 2x6. * The hinges should not be "in the downward position" 2:30. That puts all the load on a very small surface area. Doing so causes rapid and uneven wear on the eye of the gudgeon (strap) causing it to squeak much sooner and to increase the 'slop' prematurely. The gudgeon eye should bear full length on the vertical and horizontal surfaces of the pintle. Not just one small spot at the top, bottom and underneath. Also it is not very aesthetic with the hinges being out of parallel with the centerline of the rails. Again - It just looks better done well. 1

I'm late to the party! Nice video. Really helped me think this out. I think if you had inverted the top pin -- not only would the door not come off (as others mentioned) -- but the straps could be straight. I think the inversion of the top pin prevents the door from "tilting" due to the "sag" in the hinge that you illustrated. In order to invert the pin you would have to have a temporary board to hold the two horizontal boards in place. All that said, this was one of the few videos I really enjoyed watching.

Little late finding this one - great method and I will be using that to add doors to my shed this summer. Only change I'd make is holding off on that last board until after the other two carriage bolts are installed - then I'd take out the first carriage bolt and add the last board and put that bolt back in through both boards instead of drilling the board to go over the bolt so that all the bolts are consistent in their look and finish. Rubbing the chalk line on the back of the board!! Such a great hack!!!

Was skeptical when it came time to cut them apart, but the saw didn't bind and the doors didn't sag and they opened, remarkable! The hardest part was finding the tongue and grove boards (at a price I could afford), other than that, it went just like your video.

Personally I always put the finished side out and never never swing a door in. The first barn door 🚪 I build some 50 years ago I swung then in and the owner couldn’t close the doors when he put his boat in the barn. Swinging them out comes with its own set of problems and you have to make sure the door can swing clear without binding against the jamb and it needs to swing a full 180 just in case the wind catches it and breaks your door stop. Also you can’t open the doors after a snow storm until you shovel.I have collected some old barn door hardware that catches the door and holds it open until you release it. Having said that your engineering is excellent for the homeowner. Just saying.

@LancoAmish 3 жыл бұрын

@nil5221 3 жыл бұрын

Yes I agree with your comment about not fastening the hinge strap in the "droopy" position. It causes the load to bear on points instead of surfaces. However!!! To avoid sag in the doors when you cut them apart: The bottom strap&eye's (the gudgeons) need to be pushed *apart* from the centreline of the door before drilling and fastening to the rail, so the inner surface is bearing on the pintle. Opposite for the upper gudgeons which need to be pulled *towards* the centreline. That way the slop is taken out of the assembly, and the doors won't sag because the correct bearing surfaces are already in contact.. But yes, level them up, it looks much better and the whole surface is taking the load.

@@LancoAmish Wow - you must be a real charmer with your wife. Do you call her stupid immediately whenever she asks a question? Good thing I read this - I am unsubscribing and stopping this video right now. Much better builds out there without buck tooth gaps you can fit an entire hand through. Remarkable.

This is an amazing video. I’m so thankful that it came up in my search to find swinging doors for my post barn. And thankful for you. I’m building almost the exact same barn for tractor and feed! Have a blessed day!

Great job. Building both at the same time seems like a no-brainer after watching you do it. Why I never thought of it before is beyond me. I have always been thought of as a pretty smart fella. Wait until I unload this trick the next time I help a friend with a set of barn doors. Thanks for the lesson. That is brilliant.

I completed this project in 5.5 hours start to finish. I have to say I was skeptical, but wow did you deliver. Thank you for posting this valuable know how. Seriously thank you. Did it all for about $240.00 at Home Depot, way better than spending $600+ for some tacky basic garage door

@LancoAmish Жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching and commenting! I’m glad it worked out. The first time I saw this done I was helping on a pair of doors 24’ wide and 16’ tall. I was skeptical too!

Im building a pergola/carport and now I know how to make front doors. Dont want a garage door, want more of a barn /shed door cause ill be using it to store firewood as well. Perfectly done Ive subscribed and liked.
