How Many Barn Doors Does It Take....

A recent trip to Cabela's resulted in another entry on the project list. The barn needs a side entry door that's accessible from outside in the event the roll up door ever goes belly up. So far the roll up door has never failed to work, but it's probably just a matter of time. The double doors opposite the roll up door can only be opened from the inside, so with that in mind, it's time to add another door.

I thought this simple classic style would look nice with some heavy duty hinges and latch handle. I may have them made by the blacksmith at Silver Dollar City in Branson, Missouri. Our clients Rick and Jennifer from Rudy, Arkansas recently ordered several custom hand forged iron items from this particular blacksmith and I was surprised at how relatively inexpensive the various items were. It's also hard to beat handcrafted for character.
I'll try to remember to keep you posted...
