It’s actually a very well written and comprehensive book ruclips.net/user/postUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 . I wanted to pair this with an updated book on local codes to start planning a post-retirement dream shop. I think I have just about everything I need between the two. The extra plans available for purchase towards the end are priced almost as much as full home plans, not little sheds however.
You guys are awesome. We just built a 12x16 shed using your videos as our family's "Corona Project". Turned out great and taught my kids a bunch of new skills, not to mention an increase in confidence. Thank you!!!
4:55 Excellent work for sure. I also had trouble figuring how the door lined up with the siding until I enlarged the video to see how you lined up the reveal. It would have been helpful to explain that sometime during the process. I had to watch the video about 5 times before I understood it. The door you designed is by far the best Ive seen.
What is the purpose of the
1 1/4” overhand on the face panel of the door? Seems to me that with only a 1/2” reveal around the opening that this would cause the front door panel to overlap the shed siding making it protrude out from the shed wall.
The "How To Build a Shed" series is one of The Best step by step videos I have ever encountered. The verbal instructions are clear, accurate and are synced with the video. Well done, and thank you. Sincerely Tom B.
+Tom Ballew Thanks for your kind words! Glad they helped.

@@icreatablestv Not accurate. You mentioned the backing was 1" smaller than the door to create a 1/2" reveal, but then state to put a cover 1 1/4" overhang. This wouldn't fit in the door opening. I think you want a 1 1/2" reveal on the backing to allow for a 1/4" reveal of the cover.
Everything else is great! I used this series to help me build a shed. Thanks for all of the information.
Great tutorial, thank you! For security, that latch should be carriage bolted from the exterior and secured with nuts over washers from the interior
If the outer panel is supposed to overlap the shed, like a cabinet, and then there is trim on top of that panel, how does the door lay flush with the trim on the shed?
The back part of the door, 2x4s pretend the plywood doesn’t exist, lines up with the framing of the shed. The panel, screwed onto the opposite side of the door, lays on the 1 inch reveal of the original framing. Trim is flush with the edge of panels. Thus your door is flush with trim on shed.
How do you keep rain water from going inside the shed with that 1/2" reveal? Wouldn't the water just poured in since it's not sealed?
Very clear and concise video!! I will link to it on other RUclips videos. I especially like the door frame.
Here are some great shed plans: ShedPlans.xyz
Not sure I get the math of having back panel 1” less than opening, yet front panel is to have 1-1/4” overhang all 4 sides. Is this to say that the front panel will be larger than the door opening on all 4 sides? I first understood this to be that there would be a 1/4 gap or reveal around the door once installed, but the math isn’t adding up as I’m ready to place front panel on back/rail assembly which will have 1/2” reveal all 4 sides. If that’s right I’m not understanding the rest. Thanks.
After watching hours of videos, I understand. I believe the extra 1-1/4” creates door stops. I was hoping to use the panels I cut out of rough opening with router. I’ll either need 2 more sheets of siding or get creative with door trim. 🤞🏼
Absolutely fantastic! In process right now.
Used this exact process. Worked like a charm. Thx
This door looks promising that it might actually keep out mice. Supposedly mice can squeeze through a gap as small as 1/4". Your door appears to have overlaps that eliminate any large gaps for mice to squeeze through.
What are the measurements of the front panel??
So I've followed most of these videos as the basis for my kids clubhouse (I used the icreatables lean to shed vids). They have been very helpful. The door here somehow makes me have fuzzy math. The back panel and frame are to fit the door opening and the front panel overlays the outside? How far off did you have to put the trim so the door sits flush? Is the offset of the trim the 1.25" of the front panel?
Hi, thank you for the video. What's the name of the drill bit which holds the long screws in the video at 4:11 ?
Thanks for the super great video, I can see exactly what to do and 1/2 way thru and its going very well.
How can I make the door more secure as my shed is for storage AND a small workshop with a lot of tools I just inherited... Seems very hard to find hinges and locks that can be easily removed by screws.
Hi, "one-way head screws" can be used
also you can check this, ruclips.net/video/L2j08yz34Zw/видео.html
This system works great. My dorrs have een hanghing 2 yrs now and are still perfect
Sweet! Thanks for letting me know.
Is there anything you need to do to waterproof the opening? Afraid water would get to the OSB.
wonderful

Will water not leak into door cracks since there isn't an overhang?
He must live in a cool neighborhood with no predators to remove his new door. Great video .....really enjoyed it...
I saw the question about how much the cost was to make your shed was $1,500.00. I was wondering if you purchased your wood at a big box store ie; Lowes or Home Depot?
Yes the pricing was from a big box store. When buying such a large purchase the contractor sales will often negotiate on the price. Lumber yards are typically close to or less than any negotiated price from a Big Box store. You should always get pricing from multiple locations as pricing varies depending on the price the store bought their lumber for, time of year and region of the country.
I built this shed for $1200, found the local lumber yards very comparable with big box.
Teşekkürler bilgilerinizden dolayı
What is the dimensions of the door and the dimension of the door frame
Do you have the plans specifically for this door? I have downloaded the plans (and am almost done with the rest of the shed) and the last step will be to build the door. Just looking for the measurements for each section of the door.
Fay Robinson Not at this time. We may post them in the future.
Fay Robinson We have door building plans here! www.icreatables.com/doors/shed-door-plans-6060.html
Fay Robinson but
how do you ensure that your framing for the door is square? I noticed in the video you don't use a level to check for plumb. Is this simply corrected when you measure for the 1 1/4" reveal? and the siding goes on.
You should check for square by measuring the diagonals and making sure they are the same. It is good to double check both the diagonals and the opening for level and plumb before setting the door. Really it should be checked before installing the siding because it is very hard to change the opening after the siding is on and the roof is framed.
Great video Mr. Creatables. I will do my own shed this month of October. What size is this shed? Thank you and God bless you.
I'm a bit confused here. If the back panel is 1 inch smaller than the door opening, then how can the front panel possibly have a 1 1/4 inch overhang compared to the back panel? That would mean the front panel is 2 inches larger than the door opening.
Seems to me the front panel should have a 1/2" overhang in order to fit into the door opening.
Doesn't make any sense. What am I missing?
Robert JOhansen The front is larger so it overlaps the door way opening. It is like a cabinet door, sitting on the outside of the shed. This keeps the weather out and makes it so you do not need to install a door stop around the interior of the door frame.
iCreatables It's obvious that the overhang is to overlap the door opening, but you ignored the most important part of the question. In the video you say to make the back panel one inch smaller than the front panel. This would make the overhang 1/2 inch all around. Then when assembling the front panel you say to measure a 1-1/4 inch overhang. So which is it, 1/2 inch or 1-1/4 inch? Do you cut the back panel 1 inch smaller or 2-1/2 inches smaller?
Viktor Daae The back panel is one inch smaller than the doorway opening. This gives 1/2" clearance around the door. Sorry for the confusion.
The correct answer is the front panel has a 1/2" overhang in order to fit into the door opening, not a 1 1/4" overhang as the video explains.
Thank you very much for posting this. I built this door, and it is very sturdy and solid. Wonderful fit! Thanks!
Ahh, got ya. Thanks for clarification.I built the door the way I thought it should be built, and just added a jamb with weatherstripping.
How do you reduce sugar in sugar?
What sort of money do you spend on your sheds, like the lean to shed, assuming you have all the tools and just need to buy lumber and hardware?
do the math
My shed was 6 x 12 and in it about 800 bucks. I
Am I the only person that wants the tuffshed locking handle ?! I can't get one or fund one anywhere without buying the whole damn shed. I built my own and I need a locking handle exactly like that one. Sources?
Yea.
I have a split opening right now, two doors, will the 3 hinges hold up for a 4' door opening? Like the idea of one door...
***** Yes 3 hinges that are 6 inches or larger will hold the doors. The door in this video is 4' wide. Double check the strength of your door opening framing. If a door weighs 120 lbs. each hinge is holding 40 lbs.

Why the inside panel has to be 1in. Smaller then the outside??
The outside panel has an overlap to cover the door opening.
Is the overhang mandatory? Or can I choose not to do an overhang on the front of the door?
Dan Manojlovic The roof overhang should be at least an inch so water drips, or tries to drip, away from the wall. The idea is to keep water from running down the wall. But it can run down the wall if you dont mind streaks it leaves over time and the wall surface is water tight enough to keep water out of the shed.
How about double doors?
what is the thickness of the the plywood you used? can't find green border plywood where I am
it is 7/16"
Great videos, Thanks
What is the door trim type that you used?
Wood.
I like this video cause I'm planning to build a door. BUT, what are the measurements for the plywood and rails???
It depends on the door size. They are 1 inch smaller than the door opening. This gives a 1/2" reveal around the door when it is closed.
is the front and back siding 8 or 9 feet high?
We did it different on the two ends to show different ways of cutting in the roof slope. But the sheets started out 8 feet tall. If there is only a 1 1/2" overlap of the bottom plate then the siding will make it up to the ridge.
At the one minute mark you say there is a 1/2 inch reveal, then at about the 2 minute mark you say there is a 1 1/4 inch reveal for the front panel. Which is it?
The back panel has a 1/2 inch reveal from the 2x4 framed opening . The front panel is 1 1/4 bigger all around and leaves a 1/4 inch clearance from the sheds trim which is set back 1 inch from the 2x4 framed opening
@@johnnussberger8505 that math doesn't seem to add up. If the back panel is 1 inch small total than the opening, then you add an inch and a quarter in all sides, that would give you an extra inch and a half.
bigmike7801 yeah I just built a shed and I’m lookin for door ideas. This looks nice but the math doesn’t add up for me either . If you build the inside 1” smaller then add 1.25 you’re gunna be hitting all the way around
It adds up fine... say the actual door will be 24", your framed opening is 25" which ends up a 1/2" reveal on the inside. For the outside panel, the trim is set back an 1" on both sides so the opening between the trim is 27". Putting 1.25" on both sides of the door makes it 2.5"+24" for a total of 26.5" giving you 1/2" left or 1/4" each side.
What's the purpose of the overhang?
carter6pack The overhang around the door is covers the gap between the door and the shed door opening.
Thanks and subbed! This tutorial was concise as well as detailed! Simply brilliant.
shouldn't the hinges be screwed in the inside part of the frame? (non-exposed)
I mean robbers could just unscrew the door in no time...
Yes you are correct. Nice catch.
Screw the door hinges. I would take the two screws out of the jamb side of the lock catch. And you won't have to man handle a giant door. Not that I would be a thief won't mess with hinges if there is a smarter faster way to do things. My wife use to say she doesn't want glass in the front door cuz a thief could easily break in as i look at all our windows....
What is the material of the front panel? Is it available in Europe ?
It is Louisana Pacific siding. It is made out a board similar to O.S.B. but it uses a harder glue and is primed on one side.
great video - thanks for sharing
+mbarts Thanks for watching.
Kudos for the video content! Sorry for butting in, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you tried - *WoodBlueprints. Com* It is a great one of a kind guide for building better sheds and woodworking without the normal expense. Ive heard some decent things about it and my cousin finally got astronomical success with it.?
What was the total cost of this shed when finished?
This shed cost about $1500.00 including the paint.:)
how much reveal on the shed do you have for the door overhang.
+martin gonzales It's 1 1/4" Overhang of the siding on the door. 1" hold back of the siding on the shed. 1/2" gap between the door framing on the shed and the door rails. This combination gives 1/4" gap between the door siding and the siding on the shed.
this video says the overhang on the finished side is 1 1/4" but your other video says 1 1/2" Does it make a difference?
In an effort to improve our construction techniques we have updated the overhang to 1 1/4" to give the hinge screws a better chance of biting into the door rails. It will be fine with 1 1/2" but better with 1 1/4". The important part is to make sure the hinge screws get a solid bite into the door rails.
Never mention the front panel measurements
it is work nice
are the rails 2x4s?
i would put ordinary doors on the shed. (front door from home).
Why are door installs the hardest part of the entire build? I am a beginner and have not done too many installs of doors, but the few I've had to make DIY have been such a painful experience. I have a very hard time finding measurements on tutorials, and the explanations for beginners leave much to your own creativity. I don't understand why I can't find more videos, or still pictures to help me understand.... HELP!!!!!
I built a shed with these plans from Ryan [ Details Here?> *WoodBlueprints. Com* ] . The instructions were clear and easy to implement. Even a novice can be able to build fast using this plan. I'm happy I bought the plan. It also saved me much cost.
Maybe I missed an explanation, but why on earth would you put hinges on the outside of the door? All it takes is a screwdriver & a little time and someone can get inside to take whatever they want.
nezj82 If you need it more secure you can install 1/8" bolts in place of the screws.
how much did this cost to bulid
+Optic Vlogs This shed was just under $1500.00. Thanks for watching.
ya no problem nice video
can you tell me the measurements for that door
Hi, It is 6' wide and 6' tall, the rough opening jambs make it a bit smaller.
Where did you find 6ft. wide plywood?
It looks like 6x4
A little overkill for a shed door. A 5/8” sheet of plywood is sufficient, your first sheet of osb board is not necessary.
It is if you don’t want a warped shed door.
Why is he cutting everything on deck boards?
Why not?
I've a cheap saw, level, tape measure, pencil and a bag of nails....
Wood Prix's plans includes very useful instructions with all details I need
I am not in the construction industry nor am I a carpenter, I wanted a good guide to help with small projects such as small sheds and some remodeling around the house. So there’s a magic which is Shed Plan [ visit here *WoodBlueprints. Com* ]. This Shed Plan covers all my instructions from top to bottom in a step by step manner.
Used this exact process. Worked like a charm. Thx
