Perfect explanation. Thank you.
This makes my head hurt. I have a bedroom with a left swing door in the bedroom that opens into an office. I need to buy a lever privacy handle that is lockable from inside the bedroom. What hand privacy lever do I need to buy?
Very formative video, thanks
Don't forget those lovely right-hand reverse and left-hand reverse doors...hahaha! Door schedules are fun...
Best video yet.. im slow LOL took me 5 videos before I found yours and got my answer, thank you!
Thanks and thank you for watching.
Few days ago I get an impact front door and this look beautiful, however, I think that I made a bad decision choosing the hand swing. Standing outside the door open out on the left and when I enter to my house I find the chair of my living room in front of me. Now, I realize that the hand swing should be right because this is the side of the wall and I have not furniture blocking the entrance. I share my own experience to help others to choose the best side for the swing door.
I am doing this for the first time.Try to frame in a 32" screen door on a deck which is 64"widex8ft3"any tips would help Greatly why in your video was your header 41"for a 36"door.Thanking you in advance

What if there is a tiny bathroom and you prefer to swing the door outward away from the restroom? Is that possibly?
Choose the swing door depending what you going to find when you open the door. I must clarify that my door opens outwards according to the construction codes of my city.

Great videos!!! Ive been trying to find out where to get the 1000 gallon holding tank ? From your rough plumbing video any info would be appreciated. Thank you ...mike
Hello Mike and thank you I'm sorry about the delay in response I've been real busy lately with my primary Channel. As for the septic tank I used for my barn I purchased it through Menards but the price that I state in that video is not accurate. I got it that cheap but it was a Miss label and they corrected it the day that I bought it.
I have a right hand door but bought a left hand frame that I can't return can this be fixed
Yes you have to router or sand the wood to use the hinge the opposite way. But you will have a visible gap where the hinges were before.
I think it also depends on where the light switch is located
I am not exactly arguing on WHICH way a door swings however, there is a school of thought that a door opens into the room, gradually allowing you to see into that room, I believe it is/was a privacy issue, so exactly opposite of your suggestions..
The way I learned door swings is to picture yourself standing in the doorway with your back against the hinges. If the door swings to the right, right hand. If the door swings to the left, left hand.
You "must" have the door swing into the room and if so why?
It's not a must, but it is common practice. It's basically for Safety and Security reasons.
@@BevinsBuilds Ty for replying.
Just using the word "hinge" in place of the word "hand" seems easier to apply. Especially if you are left handed like me ! ..i.e. RH is simply Right Hinge. BTW he put the doo in the third bedroom on the wrong "hinge". Should have been Left Hinge..simpler for me anyway.
I tried to get it but didn't, I want to get exterior door for my front. I was told right then left . .all I know is how I want it to swing when I open it . 😂 I'll get a door installer who knows the business
and garage door??
Garage doors are determined by the size of the opening.
@@BevinsBuilds doors to the garage, are coming into the room or coming out???
Has anyone seen Dako doors and windows? I bought them a few weeks ago, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for good design and quality.
Today on Bevins old house lol
Lmao
I may have to reupload this video as I see a lot of errors in it now that ita live.
You didn't address whether you are standing inside or outside!
video doesn't match what you are saying. the 2nd and 3rd bedroom doors should be perpendicular to the arrow if the illustration were correct like the entry and 1st bedroom are.
Yeah, the whiteboard diagrams for the bathroom and the third bedroom seem to be partly incorrect. The curved arrows for the swing path are fine, but it appears to me that the point where the door--denoted by the straight line--attaches to the door frame (or wall) should be on the opposite side from what is depicted. I think that the verbal descriptions are fine, but the illustrations went off track for the bathroom and third bedroom. It can be a bit tricky to talk and draw a diagram at the same time, so no big surprise if there is an inconsistency, which there appears (to me) to be. But I still benefited from the video and appreciate that it also provides the whiteboard diagrams (as the other videos that I watched on this topic didn't provide those).
Edit: I guess another way to say it is that the straight lines for the doors should terminate in the middle of the curved arrows that show the swing paths. That is the doors should *not* be drawn from the tail of the curved arrow to the head of the curved arrow (or so it seems to this novice). But I think that there is a natural inclination to draw them that (wrong) way out of a sense of visual closure. Anyway, the symbols for the doors of the first two bedrooms look correct to me, whereas the ones for the bathroom and third bedroom do not.
I’m confused
Lol, I will make a improved video soon
