Hi
Our kids bedrooms have got sloping roofs that go down to a 4ft high stud wall. There is loads of dead space behind the stud wall that I would like to utilise as cupboards to free up some space.
I've found some shaker doors that I can get in the correct size but my question is: How do I go about constructing a door frame? Obviously for full size doors you can buy a pre-built frame but I would have to make these a custom size. Is it as simple as using the correct width planed timber and building my own frames? I have a router so can cut the rebates if needed.
I'm quite confident at having a go at most stuff myself. It usually takes a bit longer than a tradesman but I can live with that.
Any advice would be gratefully received. Many thanks,
Chris
