“t’aint ever simple.
Nor plumb level or square”

This carriage door pair replacement required ordering oversized doors to trim to fit the sloping concrete floor and sagged top- 3/4” out of level across the 7’ opening.

The clients, friends and artists, take pleasure in having things done just right. I knew if the windows did not align I’d hear about it. You get one chance to get it right the first time.

The active door has a self opening feature, same as the previous install in the opening.

I learned I was underpowered, should have had a corded Skil77 instead of the cordless saw I have come to use for most everything. Ripping 1-3/4 sustainably harvested hardwood requires power.

It’s been a long while since I’ve posted here. Today was another one of those days when you can say at the end- damn, I’m good 🙂
