I have an 18x18 "barn" on my property. You country folk would probably call it a shed, but on 1/4 of an acre it all I can have. It serves as my shop and tool storage. The biggest problem has been that it has only one 30" door. Since I bough the tractor this spring, I decided that my barn needs some barn doors so I can keep the tractor close to the driveway for snow removal, and out of the weather.
Before
I started the project by installing a temporary column and removing one of the studs.
I added a double 2x6 header and jack studs.
Now that I had the opening framed out, I built the two barn doors.
And hung them.
Now that I had doors the wall demo could start.
Sunshine!
A doorway!
Next came the ramp to the driveway.
Done with ramp.
Now the old Cub Cadet is out of the weather and at the end of the driveway.
I worked three days on it last week. It sure is nice to have the tractor in a lighted building with all the tools there too. I'll get the snow thrower and plow in there soon and I'll be ready for whatever mother natures sends my way.
