BI-FOLD DOOR MAKEOVER - flat panel to farmhouse barn door Xs





Are you ready to jump thru the looking glass and see how these amazing antique farmhouse doors were created?







BEFORE
The doors were REGULAR FLAT HOLLOW CORE CLOSET DOORS.
The wood attached is half inch thick pine that is 4 inches
wide. It is attached with wood glue and finishing nails.

****************************************************




STEP 1 
Both outside edges of each door has a full strip of wood
from top to bottom that is mounted flush with the door edge.

STEP 2 
Then the bottom and top edges are fitted with 4 short sections.

 STEP 3
 Line up a full length strip of wood horizontally from one top
 corner to the opposite bottom corner, mark and cut before attaching.

STEP 4
Mark out the cuts for the last horizontal pieces to complete the "X".

THE FINISH
Next time I will explain the painting involved to go from
smooth boring and flat to old world antique texture that you
just want to run your hand over and touch every chance you get.
