After watching this video, I was able to complete this project in less then an hour, and the door came out great... I finished it off by staining it with Minwax Early American... Amazing video...
Loved the video,I learned something a while back that I would like to share with you. Leave the tape measure on your side,Don't take it off just pull enough tape to measure.Once you get use to it ,you will love it. Again enjoyed your video.
I'm building basically the same door. Only I glued my tongue n groove together first. Your way looks faster. I have 2 other doors to make and I believe I will be doing it the way you did! Thank you for showing me a different way!
Just a matter of time before that thing warps something horrendous. Compare the flatness of the table to the wood, it’s already warping.
If you had started with mounting the first T&G board centered lengthwise you would ended up with equal spacing on the sides. Did you also rip the tongue off of the last board before glueing and screwing it down?
Otherwise, good video. Thanks.
Man that was a great diy video.
Thanks so much!
Good vid, I would of made the outer ends of cladding equal and also jointed the frame. Also only 1 fixing into each rail may not be enough to stop the timber from bowing. 😀
Good video. Out of curiosity though, why did you put the pocket holes to screw into end grain, surely it wouldv'e been a much stronger joint to drill the stiles and screw into the rails?
Scott Parker-Copestick you know it's funny, I always put pocket holes into end-grain projects, but when we watching my video I think the reason why I put them into the rails was because they were too tall to sit in my jig LOL! With the tongue and groove attached to the back it isn't a problem on these doors.
I was going to say the same thing! Was taught the other way and wondered why he did it that way as well. LoL
great!
Skip the ads!
Going to try this on my own for bathroom and closet door in master then if I like i wil do all doors like that I will get my farmhouse look one way or another lol
I replaced all my old interior wooden doors with glass ones for more light.
Bonjour, Super réalisation Bravo. Question qu'elles sont les dimensions de la structure s'il vous plaid ? Merci
Thank you for the video. It has convinced me that I can do this. I do have a question. I am going to attempt to build a door similar to yours but instead of having a frame on the outside of the tongue and groove we were going to simply have a 3 horizontal boards (one at the top of the door, one in the middle, and one at the bottom). The horizontal boards will be a 1 X 8 board. My question is do I simply build the tongue and groove door first and then attach my three horizontal board next? I am planning on having three horizontal boards on front and also back of the door. Is there an order in which I should attach the horizontal boards (ie: middle, bottom, top)? I think this is my last question, should I try gluing the tongue and groove boards as well as attaching them to the horizontal boards? Again, thank you for the video!
Hi there! I would put tongue and groove boards together first, however, remember that they may want to come apart if they are warped in any way. After you have them all together, I would then attach the top and bottom horizontal boards to the door panel in order to square the door. Then you can put the horizontal board on last. Note: Using glue with your screws is a great idea to help make it more solid. Hope this helps!
I can't say thanks enough. Your fast response is valuable and timely. THANKS
Hi, I'm thinking of making a slide door between my bedroom and bathroom.
Opening is 48 inches wide. The door will be installed to the wall on my bedroom side. I'm trying to decide if the door should face towards my bedroom and have the back facing bathroom side.
Not too sure. My door will be white.
All my doors are white.
Where did you get the grove panels from?? Homedepot? Great video.
Thanks
I got them from Lowes. I would face the pretty side toward your bedroom where you will see it most.
@@maker-logic Thanks Tom
Hi! Great video. I am going to attempt a similar door as Shannon Lloyd mentioned in the comments, which you replied to. I have a couple questions, if you don't mind? If I do the tongue and groove first, maybe even use a small amount of wood glue on the tongue for each board, then sort of frame around it on the outside, on both sides (such as Shannon mentioned she was going to do), I am planning on doing both horizontal boards as well as vertical boards on each side. Can you advise if you think the door will be stable if built this way? This is going to be an 80" x 80" door. This is essentially the opposite process as the way you built yours as you built the frame first, then attached the tongue and groove boards. Also, are brad nails a bad idea? If I use screws and slightly countersink them, do you think if I use wood filler on top of them, and then sand and stain the door, the screw locations will be minimally noticeable? Being an 80" x 80" door, would you recommend more than one center horizontal board, perhaps two, spaced correctly? Thank you in advance!
All of your ideas will work, but I do suggest you use a horizontal stile on the door so it doesn't warp. I built a solid 5' barn door with 1/2" maple plywood and a center stile and it warped about an inch on one side.
Mr. Tom, I think this is my last question. What length screws do you use. I am making a door out of tongue and groove and then a partial frame on both front and back. I don't want my screws to hit one another when I go to screw in the frame. Thank you!
It depends on your thickness. Are you using pocket holes at all? How do you plan to screw the tounge and grove to the frame boards, from the back?
THICKNESS: tongue and grove= 3/4 inch
frame = 3/4 inch (I will have a frame on front and back. My frame is only 3 horizontal boards
but not vertical boards. I guess you would call it a partial frame?)
POCKET HOLES: I will not use pocket holes. It scares me!
FRAME BOARDS: I plan to attach the 3 horizontal partial frame boards from the front. I saw this in another video, but I am always up for suggestions. In his video he filled the holes with putty and then sanded. Now that you brought this up, I am thinking that maybe I should attach the horizontal frame boards on one side from the back, allowing a pretty finish on the side of the door that will be seen the most, and then do the back side of the door from the front being it will only show in a hallway. Please let me know what you think would be best.
I agree to attach the horizontal boards on the front of the door from the back of the Tounge and groove to hide screw heads. I would use 1" long flat headed screws to go into the 1 1/2 t&g and frame. Then I would use 1" screws from the back to attach the frame pieces on the side that you cannot see from the main room
I understand. Thank you for the clear explanation . I feel equipped to do this! Thank you for responding so quickly. Depending how it turns out, I might send you a picture.
I'm surprised the screws don't split the wood.
Great Video! I am replicating your door, what size of screws did you use for the pocket holes and the tongue and groove boards? Thank you
Thanks so much! For 3/4" thick frames, you would use 1-1/2" pocket hole screws.
Hello
I'd like to know if you're close to NYC.
Love for you to make us 4 pocket doors in the style of a Barn Door.
Hoping you're close :)
Thank you.
Joe
Ps- If anyone knows of a talented woodworker who may be able to help please contact us.
I think you need to take some time and go to woodprix website to learn how to make it.
Brother you need to put on a training bra on , lol !!!
