It's a wide door, and it's on a slight grade, so I also put a small wheel on the bottom with a spring on it so the wheel supports the door and glides up the grade when i open it. Now that you are finished what is your opinion on molding.is it needed for support or mainly just cosmetic?.Thats the part that has me a little confused (deciding when and where to use molding).įor the gate the molding is essential, the lattice is too flimsy without it to swing properly. Thanks for the response man.It looks like you have molding on the gate, but not on the rest of the lattice that surrounds the deck. I'm going to put rose bushes under the overhang. Keeps my lawn mower, gasoline, and a few other things nice and safe and hidden.Ĭutting it is the hard part, holding it steady is a pain, the skilsaw liked hanging up in the notches, so go slow. A couple hinges, some 2x2 to brace the door, a latch and a wheel and it works like a charm. (This photo needs to be rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise to show right.)Īnd in this angle you can see how I made one side into a shed. This angle shows some of the joints to give you an idea of how is is fastened. I just did mine, and instead of taking it flush to the edge of the deck, I nailed it to the support posts, giving my deck a bit of an overhang.
