10×12 Shed Double Doors and Trims

by Ovidiu

 

This step by step diy project is about 10×12 gambrel shed doors plans. This is PART 3 of the storage shed project, where I show you everything you want to know about framing the double doors and fitting the trims. Take a look over the rest of my woodworking plans, if you want to get more building inspiration. Remember that you need to select the site for the shed with attention and that you have to comply with a few legal regulations.

When buying the lumber, you should select the planks with great care, making sure they are straight and without any visible flaws (cracks, knots, twists, decay). Investing in cedar or other weather resistant lumber is a good idea, as it will pay off on the long run. Use a spirit level to plumb and align the components, before inserting the galvanized screws, otherwise the project won’t have a symmetrical look. If you have all the materials and tools required for the project, you could get the job done in about a day. See all my Premium Plans HERE.

First of all, you need to build the door jambs. Cut the jambs from 2×4 lumber and attach them around the opening. Make sure the edges are flush, drill pilot holes and insert 2 1/2″ screws.

Is there a complete lumber purchase list? I’m pretty sure some of this can’t be purchased as stated and has to be cut. I’m new to this kind of thing just need a list I can take to the lumber yard so I don’t buy lumber I don’t need.

The A to Z is the Cut list. The list bellow that is the Shopping list. Each part of the plans comes with its own lists. If you want a plan that comes with a consolidated Shopping list, check out the plans in the SHOP area.
