    How To Make A Wooden Door

    Do you need a wooden door? Are you finding it short on cash to purchase a wooden door? Would you like to get a door for your oddly-sized entrance?  

    (Automatic doors like the ones on Texasaccesscontrols.com/door-service/ are reliable alternatives)

    Making a wooden door is not as hard as you think. All you need to do is follow the guidelines listed in this piece of writing, and you’d be able to make a wooden door all by yourself.

    Let’s get started! 

    • Measure Your Doorpost

    Before setting out to make a wooden door, you should first measure the length and breadth of your entrance. Take note of your measurements, as every other activity depends on it. 

    • Purchase the Necessary Materials 

    Plywood is the best material for constructing a wooden door. It is much stronger than all other types of wooden material on the market. However, the size of your door and your initial doorway measurement determines the size of the material you’d be getting.

    • Mark out The Key Points

    Formulate a structure for your door by using the initial measurement to Mark Out the length, breadth, and edges on your plywood with a ruler. 

    • Trim The Plywood 

    Trim the plywood with a saw according to the predetermined outline.

    • Smoothen The Surface of Plywood 

    You should smoothen the entire surface of the plywood with sandpaper by applying pressure with it on both sides of the wood. 

    • Add Stiles and Rails to the Door

    A wooden door is not complete without stiles and rails. The doors will not be balanced symmetrically if they are not properly positioned. 

    Pieces of wood usually placed vertically on a door are known as stiles, while rails are wooden slabs placed at the center, bottom, and top of a door. 

    Use adhesive glue to attach the stiles to the plywood and mount a little pressure on it for a few minutes till it sticks together. Repeat this on both sides of the wood, from the top to the center and the bottom. 

    After fixing your stiles, the next step is to fit your rails vertically in between the stiles. Before fixing your rail, it is important to cut your rails into equal sizes and place them at the same distance apart from each other.

    • Drill Knob holes into the plywood 

    You can use readymade templates to drill knob holes into your door. This method is more efficient rather than drilling the holes manually.  

    • Paint Your Door

    After building your wooden door, it is important to paint its door, as the paint beautifies it and also improves its overall appearance. 

    •  Install Your Door Knob 

    Fix your door knob appropriately and ensure it is balanced on both sides. 

    • Fasten the Hinges 

    Fasten the hinges firstly on your door and then fix it on your doorframe. 

    You need to be very careful while fastening your hinges, as making a mistake at this point adversely affects your overall outcome. 

    After fixing the hinges on the doorframe, open and close the door repeatedly, then Observe the door’s movement.  If it is moving freely with any resistance, then you’re good to go, if not, you have to bring it down and fix it properly. 

    Safety Tip: Make sure you wear gloves and eye protection throughout the process.
