10×16 Shed Doors and Trims Plans

This step by step woodworking project is about free 10×16 shed doors plans. This is PART 3 of the lean to shed project, where I show you how to build the double doors and the small door for the side wall. Don’t forget to take a look over the rest of the parts of the project, so you can learn how to build the roof and the frame of the shed. See my other DIY projects HERE.

We recommend you to invest in the best materials you could afford. Therefore, you should buy weather-resistant lumber, such as pine or cedar. Always take accurate measurements before adjusting the size of the components at the proper size. Drill pilot holes trough the components before inserting the wood screws, to prevent the wood from splitting. See all my Premium Plans HERE.
