Thank you so much for watching!!

Thanks for the kind words and the subscription. Have a great evening.

Thanks so much for watching. I deeply appreciate your time and kind words. Good luck on your build.

Thanks so much. Check out my other videos. Lots of builds.

Dillon Kraus , glad the video can be of help.

same here, just looking to replace two 8' X 9' fiberglass roll up doors . wow brilliant.

Thank you so much for watching. Your time is valuable and I really appreciate it.

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

Put the bolts in from the other side !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks so much for watching and the comment. Stay safe!

33 years of teaching 7-8th graders was a lot of practice! Thanks so much for watching!

Thanks so much for watching and commenting. We just prefer the bracing out as it’s more traditional in our area. The doors do swing out. I put a stop in hanging off the top plate to keep them from swinging in at all. Hope you have a great day!

I’m so happy your doors turned out great and thank you so much for watching!

Steven Waskewicz , Thank you for watching Steven. Have a great day!

Thanks for watching and the suggestions. I am never too proud to try different methods! The doors do swing out. They also would swing in a bit if I didn't put a stop in hanging off the top plate of the shed.

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.

Bingo! Was trying to 'splain the bolt thing quickly, then thought "never mind - most don't appreciate the small details that set good work apart"

Thanks for watching! The boards are 8”

Thanks for watching and I’m glad the doors worked for you! 🤣. Some people lost the whole point of that video. Some of the comments were pretty silly.

I had to build up the middle to set against the door because my doors are inset.

I’m so sweet my mama told me to never go out in the rain!

The smell is great isn’t it? I think I may have found something better though...I was making a video this morning of a mobil grain roaster. The smell of roasted soybeans is pretty darn good!

just for diesel car emissions only.

Thanks so much for watching! I know too well about not having flat areas for building as I used to live on a mountain. I think that caused one of my legs to be shorter than the other! 😂

Have you never seen hinges work before? Did you not expect the doors to swing? I’ll be sure to make a video of doors swinging just for you. I’ve never read such a stupid comment before. Remarkable.

Loved the video might use your ideas but. Would have loved to see them open. Lmao. Great idea.

Hey good point. I didn't see the doors open either!! ....so I suspect some monkey business here...some smoke and mirrors...some UKposts shennagans! . I have a hunch the doors open "inside'" instead of "out" and thats why we didn't see the final result! I want my money back :) Hey....We're just playin' with you Garden Spot builder. :0 Good video. PS: My last swinging gate was built with those $40 brackets that guarantee an even non-saggy door for us non-builders. but it would have been nice to see them open hahaha:) thats called the "money shot" in some video businesses:)

@@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.
