The fiber cement siding is very heavy which means the doors need to be stout so they won?t sag over time. The door framing is finished.

Tight joints, construction adhesive and long decking screws should keep the doors from sagging as time goes by.

To make the doors really strong and to tie it all together, the fiber cement siding is attached to the frames with construction adhesive and nails. The door frames are spaced and shimmed and held in place with big clamps so the siding can be added right in place to better control gaps and clearances.

The clean up crew grabbed the camera while we added the cement siding to one of the doors.

Then the entire door is removed and painted before the trim and hinges are added. The trim is painted too.
