Double Door Wall - Build a Workshop #7

In this video I build the front wall with double door. Because the wall is 14 feet long I build this part in two sections. I am going to make my own custom door so the opening is not a standard size.

The two inspectors are on the job!

It's all looking good, a little tip, when I make up a wall with a doorway in it like yours I let the bottom plate run all the way through which makes it a lot more stable when erecting it and then cut it out afterwards.

[@LandtoHouse]

+Michael Collinson that makes a lot of sense. And it would certainly keep the measurements correct.

[@LandtoHouse]

+Grumpy Old Man its a good one.

[@MikeBrownOhio]

Looks like it's coming together...Have a great day Seth...

[@LandtoHouse]

I took a step back the other day to look at the building as a whole and it looks nice. (slightly biased) haha

[@gardening-in-the-woods]

I realize this video is over a year old but I feel the need to explain why you use 16 inch on center, or 24 inch on center for stud spacing. When you are sheathing your wall with OSB or some other plywood material you want the 8 foot sheet to start at the outside corner and end on the center of a stud. Subsequent sheets on the same wall should also end on the center of a stud. Hook your tape measure on the outside corner of the building for all studs in the wall and mark your 16's or 24's. Cut your top and bottom plates so they end on a 16 inch center. (the center of a stud).

[@LandtoHouse]

Good point. All the building material you buy is designed to work with those dimensions and it makes building a lot easier when the walls are framed correctly.

[@KentuckyMason]

Looking good, Seth!

[@LandtoHouse]

+Darrell Waddell thank you! I took a step back today and everything was turning out well.

[@jllaine]

Love the videos, and glad to see your layout and assembly for the jack studs, king studs, and header went better this time. A tip for rough openings for doors: leave the bottom plate one solid piece. Once the wall is stood up and attached, you can saw out the threshold and you'll have a perfect door opening. When you did the second half of the wall, did you account for the top plate needing to be 1/4in shorter than the bottom plate due to the bottom of the first half being a tad out of position?

I just love your choice of shoes so funny one day its sandals the next its rubber booties with toes in them too funny!

[@LandtoHouse]

+D Kat haha yes. Not the best construction footwear.

[@MrGojuyudansha]

I would break my toes in those shoes. Lol. Great job on your build. You make great videos and I find myself watching your videos more than once. Keep up the good work.

[@LandtoHouse]

I should do better with construction footwear. Haha. Thank you. The building is coming along well now.

[@JoshKilen]

nice job

[@LandtoHouse]

Thank you.

[@ArizonaHotHomestead]

on your door that's why someone invented shims. lol once its shimmed it will look perfect. lol we wont tell anyone. lol

[@LandtoHouse]

Way to go Shims haha. I am not going to use a manufactured door so I should be able to build around the small error.

[@JimWatsonTheframingMagician]

That wall can't possibly be the same length at the top as it is at the bottom. Your bottom plate is one-half inch out of position which means when you plumb one end of the wall, the other end will be one-half inch out of plumb.

[@LandtoHouse]

This is the main wall that I had issues with being out of square. This is the first real building that I have made. I am very pleased with the results so far. Are there many many things that I should have done differently? you bet.

[@grktycoon]

Hello, may ask you what area you live?

[@LandtoHouse]

I am in North Carolina.

[@grktycoon]

Land to House.. Thank you very beautiful place.

[@jimccc9467]

@@LandtoHouse where in NC? I’m in Mooresville, just starting a 12x12 shed project

[@bigolmoose693]

Hi, Have trouble with you not wearing better footwear if not safety shoes, you wear safety glasses and hearing protection. If you ever drop something on your foot or toes, you will learn the hard way. All the Best

[@LandtoHouse]

+bigolmoose69 yes you are right. In the future videos I think I am wearing real shoes.

[@Littlelamb2023]

I realise its your system and thats cool but when i here measurements in imperial it make me think EH WHY!! ha

[@LandtoHouse]

I know its sad. We here in the USA are taught them from an early age. Does not make sense but its what we have.

[@Bob-vr2zl]

At 10:35 in your video you take a terrible chance of injuring your dogs.

[@LandtoHouse]

I suppose that is right. Its a good thing they did not get hurt. Thank you for the heads up. I will need to keep them inside when I work.
