A new baby coming up is a great news. No matter how hard it is at the moment, we always tend to find ways and celebrate a new coming. One of the major thing that we must look into would be if we still have enough space for a new member. There are a lot of ideas that you can try just so to be sure that there will be a fare share of everything among the each one.
In doing this, you can ask someone to do it for you and pay him or you can also do it yourself. Be sure that you have a good quality pocket door frame that has a durable hardware. Be sure that your drywall has already been removed as well as the plates, sills and studs.
Of course, first up will be to be certain that you have everything needed. You then need to prepare the split studs for attachment. It will be the thing that is needed to run the operation of your new passageway. You are going to attach these studs at the header and the footer. Then you will be needing your drywall after that.
Then install the brackets. This will be the one to hold the door. After that, try to slide the wheels on it and see if it works properly.
Now time to attach the actual frame to the wheels. Clip the brackets to the pins extending them to the the wheels. You also need to install a guide at the bottom of it so that every time it is being used, the things that you have installed will not be rubbing each other causing damage.
Time to put up the pulls. Every pull sold anywhere comes with its framing kit. You may also add some more accessories to it if you want but you just have to make sure that it will not affect how everything functions. It should also be installed inset of the 2 sides of the door. After putting it in, check whether or not it is blocking the whole operation.
Now is the time to put your new drywall. It will be the cover up for your pulls. Aside from the pulls, it should also cover the packet door.
The next thing you have to do is to install the trim. Measure it properly before cutting. It then has to be installed around your door. Make sure to start on top header then to the side jambs. You have to install a casing trim. You have to use a nail that is 2 x 4s because if you use the longer ones, it might extend too far into the chamber it and scratch it every time it closes and opens.
Now when everything is done, you will really see how much you have saved. All you need will be a little hard work and a little amount of money. That sure will solve your problem.
