Today there is now even more choice in the market when it comes to shed doors. One item that is often left of the shopping list when sticking to a budget build of your new shed is a PA or Personal Access door. This is often done to save a few dollars however you soon realise that it is also a major inconvenience.

How to Install?
There are a few ways I’ve seen pre-hung doors installed before. They are 1. Screw to the ends of the wall battens/girts and treat the door jambs as the method to frame up the opening. This is not really recommended as you are weakening the integrity of the shed’s engineering as loads don’t really transfer well through the battens to the jambs and away. The strongest way to install a pre-hung door is to cut your hole in the shed through the sheeting and battens and then cap the ends of the battens taking the framing up to the next uncut wall girt or the eave and fixing the bottom to the slab. Make sure the framed opening is vertical, square, and wide enough to accept the door and its frame.
You then slide the PA door into the framed opening and screw off with (6) 14-20 x 20mm TEK SCREWS INLINE WITH HINGE LOCATION.
