Door question

So I have a door question for you GC types out there - but you have to suffer through some backstory first :gar-Bi. First I realize that code in NC and VA may be different, and may be different from locality to locality, but this is more of a feasibility question... LOML wants to remodel the...

How to figure header size for double door

I am building a finishing room in my shop, and I need to install a 60" double door. I checked around on the web, but it seems to be real complicated to determine the size of the header. I plan to store stuff (not lumber) overhead, but it will not be a 2nd floor - just storage. I figure a 2x12...

Interior door suggestions?

I would like to replace some of my crappy hollow core doors with some of my own making. However I have never even hung a pre-hung door. Any suggested reading to get me up to speed? Thanks! Salem

Exterior View of Window A/C Unit

I used another piece of angle on the outside. The unit was installed with a slight downward angle toward the exterior for drainage.

Window A/C Unit Door Installation

I used 3 pieces of angle. Two pieces were first bolted through the door to provided support. The third piece (on the far left) is bolted only to the middle piece.

Window A/C in a door?

I'd like to put A/C in my shop. I've look at portable units but don't have the space for one, nor do I want to drill holes in the side of my garage/shop. They are also too expensive for me right now. I don't have a window but I do have a steel entry door. It has some rust on the bottom of it, so...

After installing a heater in my garage I had to do something about my garage doors. I was going to just get insulated sheathing and cut it to fit. But the panels on my 18' garage door are all over 48" wide. My waste would have ended up being almost 50%! So I went with this kit from Lowes...
