So continuing on with the never ending remodeling, my wife wanted a small french door to match the larger one I put in earlier this year... and they don't make such a thing... So she found this at home Depot...
A 32" bi-fold french door... So we ordered it and brought it home.... What I did was take it apart and then make it into a pre-hung mini-french door in my garage... Then I widened the opening we had in the kitchen by a couple inches and tonight I installed it... Tommorow the door trim goes on, just in time for Thanksgiving!!! Here's the photos of the construction..
Doors taken apart...
Door way.
Remove the drywall...
Widen the Doorway... cat was helping...
Building the door casing and installing the hindges....
Moving it to the livingroom...
Put in place, shimmed and secured....
Both french doors....
I'm actually cutting the trim tonight but have to wait till the glue dries to install them...
