Building & Installation of FLAT ROOF - ACCESS HATCH / DOOR

[@stateofwander6963]

Great info, thank you for posting. Curious about the hinges. Did you have to omit the wooden flange on the end where the hinges go in order to open the hatch?

Also curious what hinges you used?

Hello State of Wander! If you look at the PHOTO at 0:55 , there you can see that I used two "regular" hinges, it looks to me that they are around 2" to 3" long. Also it looks like that I omitted the "back" piece of wood on the lid, you know what I mean...?! The bottom part, the 2"x6" frame is complete, also the 2"x2" that goes around it, goes around it on all four sides... It's a while ago I built this! 🙂 Thanks for your reply! 🙂

Where did you get the hardwarw

[@dirkhandke3002]

If I remember right, probably at RONA or HOME HARDWARE in Kelowna, BC, they are located basically right next to each other and I usually go there first, one store, and if they don't have it, the other store, just on the other side of the road! The hardware items are really nothing special, you should be able to get the parts pretty much anywhere! 🙂
