This step by step woodworking project is about free 14×14 garden shed double doors plans. This is PART 3 of the square garden shed project, where I show you how to build the double doors for this beautiful garden shed, as well as the single side door. In addition, I show you how to enhance the look of the shed by fitting a few trims. 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.

How to build a shed door
Build the double doors for front of the shed. Cut the panels from T1-11 siding and then attach the 2×4 trims. Align the edges flush and use 1 1/4″ screws or nails to assemble the doors.
Attach the 2×4 doors jambs around the double doors opening. Use 2 1/2″ screws and glue to secure the jambs into place tightly.
Fit the double doors to the front opening and secure it into place with hinges. Install a latch and handles so you can close and open the doors easily.
Build the single side door for the shed. Cut the panels from T1-11 siding and then attach the 2×4 trims. Align the edges flush and use 1 1/4″ screws or nails to assemble the doors.
Attach the 2×4 doors jambs around the door opening. Use 2 1/2″ screws and glue to secure the jambs into place tightly.
Fit the shed doors into the opening and lock it into place with hinges. Install the latch and the handles, as well.
Last but not least, you need to take care of the finishing touches. Fill the holes with wood putty and then smooth the surface with 120-220 grit sandpaper. Apply a few coats pf paint over the trims and over the siding to enhance the look of the shed and to protect the components from decay.
