Are there any web sites out there which tell you how to fit/hang a stable door?

you could ask at your local equestrian centre

you should fix both parts together than hang it as one door ( i think)

What a unstable lot you are

Isn't a stable door you buy at half price ? or buy one get one free ?

Or hang it with a stable gun ?

Hang the the top door in the frame first,when done make sure the top door is shut,then hang the second door into the frame pretending it's another frame with the top door in etc....

Don't take any noticed of above unstable lot

including me

please dont resurrect posts that are 5 years old. please ask a new question. Please turn caps lock off as well. it makes the text hard to read and is considered to be shouting

Some info here (about 3 pages down)

I have also read that you can clamp both doors together and then hang them as on unit, sounds tricky, I can see clamps being dislodged during the hanging process.

Let us know how it goes.
